Title: Behavior of honeybees foraging for nectar and a large scale routing protocol implementation in wireless sensor networks
Abstract:
Insect colonies are an attractive research topic for the researcher in electrical engineering and computer science who develops and designs shortest path algorithms. Bees use energy very efficiently and have the ability to find shortest routes to their source of food. Wireless sensor networks have similarities with honeybee colonies in terms of finding shortest paths for communication and consuming energy efficiently. In this presentation, we focus on an optimal method based on swarm intelligence
(SI) inspired by honeybees and the behavior of honeybee foraging for nectar. Also, we analyze a routing protocol implementation in wireless sensor networks.
