Abstract: In this paper,parallel strategy is used develop parallel ant colony optimization algorithm based on Message Passing Interface.The Traveling Salesman Problem is experimented using our system.The results demonstrate that our algorithm is superior to the existing ant colony optimization algorithm and has better running time by using parallel computing.

Key words: ant colony optimization algorithm; message passing interface(MPI); traveling salesman problem(TSP);
