Combinatorial Optimization: Solution Methods of Traveling Salesman Problem Hülya Demez Submitted to the Institute of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science Eastern Mediterranean University January 2013 Gazimağusa, North Cyprus 1.1 TRAVELING SALESMAN The origin of the name “traveling salesman problem” is a bit of a mystery. Unfortunately TSP is not so easy to formulate, and relatively hard to solve. The minimal expected time to obtain optimal solution is exponential. 10.2.2 The general traveling salesman problem Definition: If an NP-complete problem can be solved in polynomial time then P = NP, else P ≠ NP. These methods do not ensure optimal solutions; however, they give good approximation usually in time. Introduction The classic Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) describes the situation where a salesperson wants to leave his/her home city, visit a number of other cities and then return home. %���� In this case we obtain an m-salesmen problem. �s��ǻ1��p����օ���^ \�b�"Z�f�vR�h '���z�߳�����e�sR4fb�*��r�+���N��^�E���Ā,����P�����R����T�1�����GRie)I���~�- 0000004535 00000 n
