Glowworm swarm optimization algorithm for solving multi-constrained QoS multicast routing problem

The glowworm swarm optimization algorithm is used to solve the multi-constrained QoS multicast routing problem and QoS-GSO algorithm is presented. Our test shows that the algorithm can find optimal solution quickly and has better performance than GA and ACO. Furthermore, for the larger multi-constrained QoS multicast routing problem, the QoS-GSO algorithm can also quickly obtain the correct solution, which has good prospects of application.
