Abstract
The study manipulated the neighborhood topologies of particle
swarms optimizing four test functions. Several social network structures
were tested, with “small-world” randomization of a specified
number of links. Sociometric structure and the small-world manipulation
interacted with function to produce a significant effect on performance
