Optimizar la ruta de distribución del algoritmo de colmenas de abejas artificiales

Abstract

The present article spreads the results of the investigation developed by the DIGITI group assigned to the scientific center of research and development (CIDC) from the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas (UDFJ de C). This group is orientated to the solution and optimization of problems using swarms of intelligence. It shows the development of an artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm (Advanced Clustering Algorithm) as a tool for planning and the optimization of the distribution routes for a chain of restaurants, this, with the aim to find the best delivery route. The results are simulated in MatLab® (a tool for technical calculation), taking into consideration the administration and logistics of the distribution channel for the brand Kokorico® (a fast food restaurant chain), through a solution of planning that optimizes the use of transportation resources. The obtained solution satisfies the criteria for using, at a maximum, 38 % of the resources available nowadays, for what it turns into a commendable alternative to answer in the area of Colombia
