Abstract

The paper includes a proposal of a new algorithm for Computer Aided Design (CAD) of complex system with higher degree of dependability. Optimization: in scheduling of tasks, partitioning of resources, the allocation of task and resources are basic goals this algorithm. These optimization problems are NP-hard, but can be it solved efficiently e.g. by meta-heuristic algorithms. Presented the CAD algorithm based on Ant Colony Optimization may have a practical application in developing tools for rapid prototyping of such systems. The Ant Colony Optimization algorithm is a probabilistic technique for solving computational problems which can be reduced to finding good paths through graphs.
