  • Abstract
    Ant Colony Algorithm (ACA) and Genetic Local Search (GLS) are two optimization algorithms that have been successfully applied to the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). In this paper we define new crossover operator then redefine ACA´s ants as operate according to defined crossover operator then put forward our GLS that uses these ants to solve Symmetric TSP (STSP) instances.
