A Lexisearch Algorithm for the Bottleneck Traveling Salesman Problem
نویسنده
چکیده
The bottleneck traveling salesman problem (BTSP) is a variation of the well-known traveling salesman problem in which the objective is to minimize the maximum lap (arc length) in a tour of the salesman. In this paper, a lexisearch algorithm using adjacency representation for a tour has been developed for obtaining exact optimal solution to the problem. Then a comparative study has been carried out to show the efficiency of the algorithm as against an existing exact algorithm for some TSPLIB and randomly generated instances of different sizes.

متن کاملSolving 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. ...
