In order to overcome the shortcomings of precocity and stagnation in ant colony optimization algorithm, an improved algorithm is presented. Considering the impact that the distance between cities on volatility coefficient, this study presents an model of adjusting volatility coefficient called Volatility Model based on ant colony optimization(ACO) and Max-Min ant system. There are simulation experiments about TSP cases in TSPLIB, the results show that the improved algorithm effectively overcomes the shortcoming of easily getting an local optimal solution, and the average solutions are superior to ACO and Max-Min ant system.
