چکیده

Document mentioned in title of this article was published in first version in 2004. In moment research was started version revised on 16.01.2006 was available and this article refers mainly to that version. At this moment newer version revised on 16.10.2006 is available, but main idea is same. This article contains formulation of TSP 2 problem. Then problem is modeled as Integer Linear Programming 3 and after this author claims that solution is equivalent to non-integer version of the same linear programming problem – non integer solution is presenting many solutions at once.

On "P = NP: Linear Programming Formulation of the Traveling Salesman Problem": A reply to Hofman's Claim of a "Counter-Example"

Imagine v valleys and all cities placed in this valleys. Cost of traveling from town to town in valley is very small (negligible), let us say equal to 1. When salesmen wants to go to other valley he has to pass mountain chain – this is of a huge cost, let us say equal to 1000. Salesman lives in one of towns in valley A. Optimal solution must then contain 4 mountain chains crossing (from A to B,...

Solving the Traveling Salesman Problem by an Efficient Hybrid Metaheuristic Algorithm

The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is the problem of finding the shortest tour through all the nodes that a salesman has to visit. The TSP is probably the most famous and extensively studied problem in the field of combinatorial optimization. Because this problem is an NP-hard problem, practical large-scale instances cannot be solved by exact algorithms within acceptable computational times. ...

A New Hybrid Parallel Simulated Annealing Algorithm for Travelling Salesman Problem with Multiple Transporters

In today’s competitive transportation systems, passengers search to find traveling agencies that are able to serve them efficiently considering both traveling time and transportation costs. In this paper, we present a new model for the traveling salesman problem with multiple transporters (TSPMT). In the proposed model, which is more applicable than the traditional versions, each city has diffe...

A reactive bone route algorithm for solving the traveling salesman problem

The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is a well-known optimization problem in graph theory, as well as in operations research that has nowadays received much attention because of its practical applications in industrial and service problems. In this problem, a salesman starts to move from an arbitrary place called depot and after visits all of the nodes, finally comes back to the depot. The obje...
