Abstract: Abstract We generalize cellular automaton models for uni-directional ant-trails to bi-directional motion. Several extensions (1-lane, 2-lane with and without common pheromone trail) corresponding to different realistic situations are compared. The interactions between the ants give rise to interesting collective behavior which is reflected in the flow properties and the spatio-temporal organization of the ants along the trail.
