In this implementation of AntNet-3.0 one could get the behavior of both algorithms through a simple #define. The implementation has been tested and works with Windows XP and MSVC6.0 and Omnetpp3.0a3
PSO’s precursor was a simulator of social behavior, that was used to visualize
the movement of a birds’ flock. Several versions of the simulation model
were developed, incorporating concepts such as nearest-neighbor velocity
matching and acceleration by distance
