Abstract: Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is successfully used for many hard, mostly continuous, optimization problems. There is a way to extend standard ABC algorithm to constrained problems. In this paper an improved version of the artificial bee colony algorithm adjusted for constrained optimization problems is presented. It uses Deb's rule. This modified algorithm has been implemented and tested on four standard engineering constrained benchmark problems which contain discrete and continuous variables. Our results were compared to the results obtained by simple constrained particle swarm optimization algorithm (SiC-PSO) which showed a very good performance when it was applied to the same problems. Our results are of the comparable quality with faster convergence.
