In this paper, a Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm used to solve the quality of service routing problems is proposed. Each Multicast Particle Swarm Optimization system in the Multicast Particle Swarm Optimization system router will use an efficient objective function that reflects one or more of the QoS parameters to evaluate the multicast Tree between one source node and multiple destination nodes according to Class of Service (CoS). The authors first classify the applications into classes according to its sensitivity to one or more QoS parameters. Their proposed multicast PSO router finds the multicast Tree with minimum cost subject to specific QoS parameter(s) and for the specific application that belongs to appropriate CoS in computer networks. The simulation results explain that the proposed multicast PSO system in the Multicast Particle Swarm Optimization system router exhibits a good quality of solution and a good rate of convergence to optimal solution for each CoS that lead to high speed response in computer networks.
