The paper presents a swarm model inspired in ant colonies where ants perform different tasks. The model emphasizes explorer and worker ants responsible for food search and bringing food back to the nest, respectively. The model is based on ACO ? Ant Colony Optimization providing a shortest path algorithm during route exploration. Results from ant colony model simulations are presented and contrasted.
