The travelling salesman problem (TSP) remains one of the most challenging NP‐hard problems in combinatorial optimisation, with significant implications for logistics, network design and route ...

Figure 1: Traveling Salesman Problem Using an Evolutionary Algorithm in Action This article assumes you have intermediate or better programming skill but doesn't assume you know anything about ...

A new algorithm which could provide a solution to the age old Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) has been improved by a student.

After Karp’s paper was published, many computer scientists set their sights on creating an efficient algorithm to find approximate solutions to the traveling salesman problem — round-trip routes whose ...

The time-constrained traveling salesman problem is a variation of the familiar traveling salesman problem that includes time window constraints on the time a particular city, or cities, may be visited ...

Forget GPS. With no fancy maps or even brains, immune system cells can solve a simple version of the traveling salesman problem, a computational conundrum that has vexed mathematicians for decades ...

The Traveling Salesman Problem with Backhauls (TSPB) is defined on a graph G = (V, E). The vertex set is partitioned into V=({v1},L,B), where v1 is a depot, L is a set of linehaul customers, and B is ...
