Ant Algorithm Modification for Multi-Version Software Building

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 9140))

Abstract

The multi-version software and problem of its building as an optimization problem are considered. The ant algorithm as a way to solve the problem of multi-version software building is presented. The results of the standard and modified ant algorithms are given and compared.
