摘要：Tourists that visit multiple locations need to have prior knowledge about interesting and attractive destinations. Selecting the most suitable tour plan for any tourist is not an easy task. Building a schedule of proposed destinations may allow the tourist to navigate between these destinations efficiently based on his/her time and budget. This paper applies the Artificial Bee Colony optimization algorithm (ABC) to build a tour plan by selecting the Points of Interest (POIs). The algorithm is applied to the user mobile phone. Tourist must specify the start place, the end place, the stay period (number of days) and the preferred POIs, if any, and some other preferences. The objective is to maximize the tourist satisfaction by selecting several POIs which satisfy the provided time and budget. The system is built on top of Android for its simplicity, popularity, and availability of web services. To evaluate the efficiency of the proposed technique, we build a dataset of 50 attractions in Jordan. The algorithm fitness function is tuned based on comparing the resulted tour plan with a tour plan generated by an expert. The evaluation shows that the proposed technique gives the maximum number of POI within the provided time and budget.
