Samenvatting	Deterministic Particle Swarm Optimization (DPSO) removes the stochastic random coefficients from classical PSO, replacing them with fixed cognitive and social acceleration parameters. Particles move through the search space following fully predictable trajectories, enabling reproducible convergence analysis and guaranteed termination behavior in continuous and combinatorial optimization problems.	Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a metaheuristic algorithm introduced by Marco Dorigo and colleagues in the early 1990s that solves combinatorial optimisation problems by simulating the collective foraging behaviour of ants. Real ants lay pheromone trails on paths and preferentially follow stronger trails; ACO turns this positive-feedback mechanism into a search procedure that finds high-quality solutions to graph-structured problems such as the Travelling Salesman Problem, vehicle routing, and scheduling.
