A Dynamic Recommender System for Improved Web Usage Mining and CRM Using Swarm Intelligence

Algorithm 2

Cooling algorithm.

Notations used:

= agents plus their position on the visualization plane; TL = temperature length; = agents plus their updated position

on the visualization plane; = th agent on the visualization panel; Pos() = position of agent on the visualization plane;

= total number of agents on the visualization plane.

Input: where to , , TL,
