Dynamic Routing in Traffic Networks and MANETs Using Ant Based Algorithms

Overview A driver travelling from point A to B in a city constantly gathers valuable information about the environment and traffic conditions. This information remains with the driver and therefore precious information that in theory could be useful to other drivers is lost. By equipping automobiles with a PDA, drivers are able, with the use of those PDA's, to form mobile ad-hoc communication networks. This enables them to exchange information and connect them with the Routing system via wireless access points available along the roads. This paper addresses the problems related to creating and maintaining a hybrid network composed of both wired and wireless ad hoc networks.
