| description abstract | Water distribution systems (WDSs) are costly infrastructure, and much attention has been given to the application of optimization methods to minimize design costs. In previous studies, ant colony optimization (ACO) has been found to perform extremely competitively for WDS optimization. In this paper, five ACO algorithms are tested: one basic algorithm (ant system) and four more advanced algorithms [ant colony system, elitist ant system, elitist-rank ant system | |
