Abstract

In this paper we propose a novel routing algorithm called Bees_Ants algorithm. This algorithm is a combination of ant colony based routing algorithm (ARA) and BeeHive based routing algorithm. The proposed routing algorithm depends on splitting the network into two parts; one is a fixed network and the other is a mobile ad hoc network (MANET), then applying the ant colony based routing algorithm on the mobile part and the BeeHive based routing algorithm on the fixed one. After comparing the proposed algorithm with the ARA algorithm, it shows promising results in terms of propagation delay, queue delay, and number of hops.
