The design of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in the Internet of Things (IoT) faces many new challenges that must be addressed through an optimization of multiple design objectives. Therefore, multiobjective optimization is an important research topic in this field. In this paper, we develop a new efficient multiobjective optimization algorithm based on the chaotic ant swarm (CAS). Unlike the ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm, CAS takes advantage of both the chaotic behavior of a single ant and the self-organization behavior of the ant colony. We first describe the CAS and its nonlinear dynamic model and then extend it to a multiobjective optimizer. Specifically, we first adopt the concepts of “nondominated sorting” and “crowding distance” to allow the algorithm to obtain the true or near optimum. Next, we redefine the rule of “neighbor” selection for each individual (ant) to enable the algorithm to converge and to distribute the solutions evenly. Also, we collect the current best individuals within each generation and employ the “archive-based” approach to expedite the convergence of the algorithm. The numerical experiments show that the proposed algorithm outperforms two leading algorithms on most well-known test instances in terms of Generational Distance, Error Ratio, and Spacing.

The Internet of Things networks comprising wireless sensors and controllers or IoT gateways offers extremely high functionalities. However, not much attention is paid towards energy optimization of these nodes and enabling lossless networks. The wireless sensor networks and its applications has industrialized and scaled up gradually with the development of artificial intelligence and popularization of machine learning. The uneven network node energy consumption and local optimum is reached by the algorithm protocol due to the high energy consumption issues relating to the routing strategy. The smart ant colony optimization algorithm is used for obtaining an energy balanced routing at required regions. A neighbor selection strategy is proposed by combining the wireless sensor network nodes and the energy factors based on the smart ant colony optimization algorithm. The termination conditions for the algorithm as well as adaptive perturbation strategy are established for improving the convergence speed as well as ant searchability. This enables obtaining the find the global optimal solution. The performance, network life cycle, energy distribution, node equilibrium, network delay and network energy consumption are improved using the proposed routing planning methodology. There has been around 10% energy saving compared to the existing state-of-the-art algorithms.

Subject. This article discusses the issues related to the creation of a technology of modeling and optimization of economic, financial, information, and logistics cluster-cluster cooperation within a federal district. Objectives. The article aims to propose a model for determining the optimal center of industrial agglomeration for innovation and industry clusters located in a federal district. Methods. For the study, we used the ant colony optimization algorithm. Results. The article proposes an original model of cluster-cluster cooperation, showing the best version of industrial agglomeration, the cities of Samara, Ulyanovsk, and Dimitrovgrad, for the Volga Federal District as a case study. Conclusions. If the industrial agglomeration center is located in these three cities, the cutting of the overall transportation costs and natural population decline in the Volga Federal District will make it possible to qualitatively improve the foresight of evolution of the large innovation system of the district under study.
