Abstract

This paper presents an application of heuristic approach to problem of designing reliable network expansion. The problem essentially consists in finding the network topology that satisfies given set of reliability constraints. To efficiently solve the problem, a scatter search approach is proposed. The results of the two experiments show that scatter search is a more suitable approach for finding a good solution or near optimal solution in comparison with genetic algorithm.
