چکیده
In this paper a new metaheuristic solution is designed to solve the travelling salesperson problem with hotel selection (TSPHS). The applied solution approach is based on the V flight formation of migrating birds. Different numerical analysis confirms that it is efficient enough for solving the problem in a reasonable computational time. To check the efficiency and suitability of the solution algorithm, results of exact solution method solved by commercial software for small instances are compared with results of the applied metaheuristic algorithm. The comparisons confirm that the developed algorithm is capable to find near optimal solutions for the TSPHS. By doing more numerical analysis we concluded the trip duration will decrease by increasing of available hotels. It also decreases if there is permission for over time working by travelers.
