Abstract
This paper discusses the point covering problem solved by ant algorithm. Point covering problem is hard to solve with great actual value. Ant algorithm is a newly emerged stochastic searching optimization algorithm in recent years. A distributed parallel algorithm of point covering is presented with ant algorithm. Experiment results demonstrate that the algorithm is effective.
