Multicast routing protocols in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) are emerging for wireless group communication which includes application such as multipoint data dissemination and multiparty conferencing which made the analytical design and development of the MANETs in a very efficient manner. For MANETs there are several multicast routing protocols are available, but they perform well under specific scenarios only. The topology of a MANET changes adequately due to the random mobility of network nodes, unlike the wired network which is static. Due to the lack of redundancy in multipath and multicast structures, the multicast routing protocols are vulnerable to the component failure in ad-hoc networks. Some of the efficient techniques for solving the problem are optimizing the routing process which in turn increases the delivery of packets and minimizes the overhead. GA and PSO are such optimizing tools used in networks. The key factors that determine the performance of GA is by the well...
