title = "An artificial bee colony algorithm for the set covering problem",
abstract = "In this paper, we present a new Artificial Bee Colony algorithm to solve the non-unicost Set Covering Problem. The Artificial Bee Colony algorithm is a recent metaheuristic technique based on the intelligent foraging behavior of honey bee swarm. Computational results show that Artificial Bee Colony algorithm is competitive in terms of solution quality with other metaheuristic approaches for the Set Covering Problem problem.",
