NinjaBees

Simulation of a bee colony.

Bees try to discover all food sources in the simulated world.

Bee Colony Optimization Algorithm as Core Algorithm:

  • Employed Bee Phase
  • Onlooker Bee Phase

Natural Behavior of Bees:

  • Scout Bee remembers path to food
  • Forager Bee uses one of all known path to get food
  • If Scout Bee finds a shorter path, update path to food
  • Information is only shared inside the Hive
