The artificial bee colony (ABC) is a well-studied algorithm developed to solve continuous function optimization problems by Karboga and Akay in 2009. ABC has been proven to be more effective than other biological-inspired algorithms with good exploration. However, ABC suffers from low exploitation and slow convergence in some cases. The ABC algorithm study has risen significantly over the past decade, with many researchers trying to improve ABC performance and apply it to solve problems. One method to enhance ABC is to borrow exploration technique from other algorithms. Researchers use pheromone, which is a technique used by Ant Colony optimization algorithm, to enhance ABC and addressed several aspects of using a pheromone to enhance ABC. This systematic review aims to review and analysis articles about using pheromone to enhance ABC. Articles on related topics were systematically searched in four major databases, namely Scopus, Web of Science, Association for Computing Machinery ACM and Google Scholar. To ensure that all research articles were considered the start date is not restrictions the search carry out till February 2021. Five articles were selected based on our inclusion and exclusion criteria for the systematic review. The results show that the use Pheromone to enhance ABC can increase the ABC exploitation ability and overcoming the late convergence. This paper also illustrates several potential pheromone using for future work. � 2021. All Rights Reserved.
