The highly parallel framework of Spark enables it to have outstanding advantages in accelerating computing speed. At the same time, artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm needs to improve its performance because of its high time complexity. In this paper, we combine ABC algorithm with Spark platform. First, we extend ABC algorithm to the multi-objective artificial bee colony (MOABC) algorithm; then we implement the parallel MOABC algorithm based on Spark platform. We conduct several experiments using our proposed algorithm on Spark platform, and the experimental results show that parallel MOABC algorithm produces a better performance.
