An Ant Algorithm with a New Pheromone Evaluation Rule for Total Tardiness Problems
Ant Colony Optimization is an evolutionary method that has recently been applied to scheduling problems. We propose an ACO algorithm for the Single Machine Total Weighted Tardiness...

Convergence of Ant Colony Optimization on First-order Deceptive Systems
Deceptive problems have been considered difficult for ant colony optimization (ACO) and it was believed that ACO will fail to converge to global optima of deceptive problems. Thi...
