Abstract
Sometimes there are difficult optimization problems that it is impossible to find the best strategy or perhaps even not exist at all. For this kind of problems, researchers developed efficient methods called metaheuristic algorithms to find near optimal solutions under an acceptable run-time. Since there isn’t any single metaheuristic algorithm to solve all optimization problems with different types or structures, researchers develop new metaheuristic algorithms with an increasing pace. Most of these algorithms are nature or bio-inspired, mimicking the successful characteristics of nature. Cuckoo search (CS) is one of the relatively new algorithms proposed by Yang and Deb (2009).
期刊介绍:
Swarm Intelligence is the principal peer-reviewed publication dedicated to reporting on research
and developments in the multidisciplinary field of swarm intelligence. The journal publishes
original research articles and occasional review articles on theoretical, experimental and/or
practical aspects of swarm intelligence. All articles are published both in print and in electronic
form. There are no page charges for publication. Swarm Intelligence is published quarterly.
The field of swarm intelligence deals with systems composed of many individuals that coordinate
using decentralized control and self-organization. In particular, it focuses on the collective
behaviors that result from the local interactions of the individuals with each other and with their
environment. It is a fast-growing field that encompasses the efforts of researchers in multiple
disciplines, ranging from ethology and social science to operations research and computer
engineering.
Swarm Intelligence will report on advances in the understanding and utilization of swarm
intelligence systems, that is, systems that are based on the principles of swarm intelligence. The
following subjects are of particular interest to the journal:
• modeling and analysis of collective biological systems such as social insect colonies, flocking
vertebrates, and human crowds as well as any other swarm intelligence systems;
• application of biological swarm intelligence models to real-world problems such as distributed
computing, data clustering, graph partitioning, optimization and decision making;
• theoretical and empirical research in ant colony optimization, particle swarm optimization,
swarm robotics, and other swarm intelligence algorithms.
