An Optimized GPU-Accelerated Route Planning of Multi-UAV Systems Using Simulated Annealing Article CUDA CODE
Usage of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) in a certain mission makes flight route planning more complicated and slower. In order to obtain better performance, in the literature, most of the researchers propose using evolutionary algorithms and artificial intelligence approaches based on heuristics as optimization techniques. In addition to this, parallel programming approaches increase the computation performance. Therefore, this study focuses to discuss and solve the route planning problem for multi-UAV systems by using optimization techniques based on an evolutionary algorithm: simulated annealing. ...
