Abstract
The terminal assignment (TA) problem is an important problem in the design of telecommunication networks. The problem consists in determining the best links for connecting a given set of terminals to a given set of concentrators so that a given cost function is optimized. In this paper, we have proposed an artificial bee colony algorithm based approach for solving the TA problem. In comparison with the best methods available in the literature, the proposed approach obtained better quality solutions in shorter time.
