Abstract

Network Load balancing is a technique of balancing at each node the number of packets received and the number of packets forward to the other node so that the chance of network congestion problem has been reduced and bandwidth is utilized. Although there are many techniques implemented for the balancing of nodes based on maintaining a routing table at each node and is updated as the packet get forward from that node. Ant Colony Optimization is one of the techniques used in the network for the balancing of number of packets at each node. Here in this paper is proposed a comparative study of different ant colony optimization techniques implemented for the analysis of the network load balancing. Here the ant based techniques are implemented are simulated for different conditions and on the basis of which proposed the best ant based techniques for the network load balancing.
