Abstract

In this paper, a novel ant colony optimization (ACO) simulation platform is developed by MATLAB/GUI toolbox to solve traveling salesman problem (TSP). The modular design concept is applied to divide platform into four main modules. The function modules are designed by using MATLAB/GUI toolbox. The development, implementation and test of the designed ACO simulation platform are particularly introduced. The test process and results show that the function of the designed ACO simulation platform can be implemented by importing exiting map and its coordinates or setting coordinates manually; besides, when setting parameters, they can be changed arbitrarily in the range of prompt message. The proposed platform can effectively solve the TSP and find the optimal path.
