This paper contains the implementation of the BeeAdhoc algorithm for data routing in mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANet). The algorithm was inspired by the foraging behaviour of honey bees and its implementation mimics this behaviour. The integration was done on Network Simulator version 2 (NS-2.34) where different scenarios were considered in comparison with other existing state-of-the-art routing algorithms that have been implemented in the chosen simulator. The comparison was carried out between DSR, DSDV,
AOMDV which are all multipath routing algorithms as the BeeAdhoc; this gave a better insight to the different behaviour of the algorithms on a common application environment. Throughput, end-to-end delay and routing overhead constitute the indices used for the performance evaluation. Experimental results showed the best performance of BeeAdhoc over, DSDV and AOMDV algorithms.
