Abstract
Networks have changed our life style drastically in last 10 years. We always want to stay connected to an external network like Internet or Intranet with the help of wireless communication. A lot of research has been in done this field to explore the best and the optimum protocols which can be used in WSN, WMN and Ad-hoc networks. Identification of optimal route for data communication, efficient utilization of energy, providing congestion free communication, offering scalability, maintaining the Quality of Service are few research issues in the Ad-hoc Networks. To overcome these issues swarm Intelligence (SI) inspired routing algorithms have become a research focus in recent years due to theirs self-organizing nature, which is very suitable to the routing problems in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETS). In this paper, we focus on routing algorithms based on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and Bee Colony Optimization (BCO) for MANETS that have been designed according to the principles of swarm intelligence.
