Selection algorithm using artificial ant colonies

Abstract:

We developed one stochastic model for intelligent selection of software components. The selection is done using a XML file containing the most relevant characteristics for each component. XML file has an extra field called "pheromone", which is a concept taken from ant colonies systems. This algorithm can be used for component, service and resource selection; this is possible because our model is general enough for been replicated with different types of requirements.
