During periods of large data transmission, routing selection methods are used to efficiently manage data traffic and improve the speed of transmission. One approach in routing selection is AntNet that applies the Ant algorithm in transmissions with uniform probability. However, this approach uses random selection, which can cause excessive data transmission rates and fail to optimize data This paper presents the use of the Genetic Algorithm (GA) to efficiently route and disperse data transmissions, during periods with "unnecessary weight increases for random selection". This new algorithm for improved performance provides highly accurate estimates of the transmission time and the transmission error rate.
