    Mohamed Elkawkagy1, Ibrahim A. Elgendy2,*, Ammar Muthanna3,4, Reem Ibrahim Alkanhel5, Heba Elbeh1

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.84, No.1, pp. 393-415, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2025.063766 - 09 June 2025

    Abstract Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) planning is a powerful technique in artificial intelligence for handling complex problems by decomposing them into hierarchical task structures. However, achieving optimal solutions in HTN planning remains a challenge, especially in scenarios where traditional search algorithms struggle to navigate the vast solution space efficiently. This research proposes a novel technique to enhance HTN planning by integrating the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm into the refinement process. The Ant System algorithm, inspired by the foraging behavior of ants, is well-suited for addressing optimization problems by efficiently exploring solution spaces. By incorporating ACO… More >

    Efficient Resource Management in IoT Network through ACOGA Algorithm

    Pravinkumar Bhujangrao Landge1, Yashpal Singh1, Hitesh Mohapatra2, Seyyed Ahmad Edalatpanah3,*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.143, No.2, pp. 1661-1688, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.065599 - 30 May 2025

    Abstract Internet of things networks often suffer from early node failures and short lifespan due to energy limits. Traditional routing methods are not enough. This work proposes a new hybrid algorithm called ACOGA. It combines Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and the Greedy Algorithm (GA). ACO finds smart paths while Greedy makes quick decisions. This improves energy use and performance. ACOGA outperforms Hybrid Energy-Efficient (HEE) and Adaptive Lossless Data Compression (ALDC) algorithms. After 500 rounds, only 5% of ACOGA’s nodes are dead, compared to 15% for HEE and 20% for ALDC. The network using ACOGA runs for More >

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.83, No.3, pp. 3945-3973, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2025.063099 - 19 May 2025

    Abstract Natural Language Processing (NLP) has become essential in text classification, sentiment analysis, machine translation, and speech recognition applications. As these tasks become complex, traditional machine learning and deep learning models encounter challenges with optimization, parameter tuning, and handling large-scale, high-dimensional data. Bio-inspired algorithms, which mimic natural processes, offer robust optimization capabilities that can enhance NLP performance by improving feature selection, optimizing model parameters, and integrating adaptive learning mechanisms. This review explores the state-of-the-art applications of bio-inspired algorithms—such as Genetic Algorithms (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO)—across core NLP tasks.

    A UAV Path-Planning Approach for Urban Environmental Event Monitoring

    Huiru Cao1, Shaoxin Li2, Xiaomin Li3,*, Yongxin Liu4

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.83, No.3, pp. 5575-5593, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2025.061954 - 19 May 2025

    Abstract Efficient flight path design for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in urban environmental event monitoring remains a critical challenge, particularly in prioritizing high-risk zones within complex urban landscapes. Current UAV path planning methodologies often inadequately account for environmental risk factors and exhibit limitations in balancing global and local optimization efficiency. To address these gaps, this study proposes a hybrid path planning framework integrating an improved Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm with an Orthogonal Jump Point Search (OJPS) algorithm. Firstly, a two-dimensional grid model is constructed to simulate urban environments, with key monitoring nodes selected based on… More >

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.142, No.3, pp. 2869-2892, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.059786 - 03 March 2025

    Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged as an important future technology. IoT-Fog is a new computing paradigm that processes IoT data on servers close to the source of the data. In IoT-Fog computing, resource allocation and independent task scheduling aim to deliver short response time services demanded by the IoT devices and performed by fog servers. The heterogeneity of the IoT-Fog resources and the huge amount of data that needs to be processed by the IoT-Fog tasks make scheduling fog computing tasks a challenging problem. This study proposes an Adaptive Firefly Algorithm (AFA) for… More >

    Ting Cai1, Chun Ye1, Zhiwei Ye1,*, Ziyuan Chen1, Mengqing Mei1, Haichao Zhang1, Wanfang Bai2, Peng Zhang3

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.81, No.1, pp. 1157-1175, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.055080 - 15 October 2024

    Abstract The world produces vast quantities of high-dimensional multi-semantic data. However, extracting valuable information from such a large amount of high-dimensional and multi-label data is undoubtedly arduous and challenging. Feature selection aims to mitigate the adverse impacts of high dimensionality in multi-label data by eliminating redundant and irrelevant features. The ant colony optimization algorithm has demonstrated encouraging outcomes in multi-label feature selection, because of its simplicity, efficiency, and similarity to reinforcement learning. Nevertheless, existing methods do not consider crucial correlation information, such as dynamic redundancy and label correlation. To tackle these concerns, the paper proposes a More >

    V. G. Saranya*, S. Karthik

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.141, No.1, pp. 127-150, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2024.053825 - 20 August 2024

    Abstract Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are a collection of sensor nodes distributed in space and connected through wireless communication. The sensor nodes gather and store data about the real world around them. However, the nodes that are dependent on batteries will ultimately suffer an energy loss with time, which affects the lifetime of the network. This research proposes to achieve its primary goal by reducing energy consumption and increasing the network’s lifetime and stability. The present technique employs the hybrid Mayfly Optimization Algorithm-Enhanced Ant Colony Optimization (MFOA-EACO), where the Mayfly Optimization Algorithm (MFOA) is used to… More >

    Abstract The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is a networking paradigm related to the intercommunication of vehicles using a network. In a dynamic network, one of the key challenges in IoV is traffic management under increasing vehicles to avoid congestion. Therefore, optimal path selection to route traffic between the origin and destination is vital.
