            Abstract : 
Although adaptive and heuristic approaches perform well under idealized conditions to the packet network routing problem, such algorithms are also dependent on global information that is not available under real-world conditions. This work benchmarks routing under local information conditions using the AntNet algorithm and makes recommendations regarding future approaches
