EBCD: a routing algorithm based on bee colony for energy consumption   reduction in wireless relay networks
  One of the important issues in wireless networks is the Routing problem that is effective on system performance, in this article the attempt is made to propose a routing algorithm using the bee colony in order to reduce energy consumption in wireless relay networks. In EBCD algorithm, through combined of energy, distance and traffic parameters a routing algorithm for wireless networks is presented with more efficiency than its predecessor. Applying the bee colony method would allow the placement of the parameters under conventional conditions and to get closer to a mechanism with a better adaptability than that of the existing algorithm. According to the parameters considered, the proposed algorithm provides a fitness function that can be applied as a multi-hop. Unlike other algorithms of its kind this can increase service quality based on environmental conditions through its multiple services. This new method can store the energy accumulated in the nodes and reduce the hop restrictions.
