This paper presents a constraint logic programming model for the traveling salesman problem with time windows which yields an exact branch-and-bound optimization algorithm without any restrictive ...

In this paper, we model this problem as an integer program and develop several fast route-first, cluster-second heuristics based on local search and dynamic programming.

This course continues our data structures and algorithms specialization by focussing on the use of linear and integer programming formulations for solving algorithmic problems that seek optimal ...

The task is the long-standing challenge known as the traveling salesman problem, or TSP for short. Finding a method that can quickly solve every example of the TSP would be a stunning breakthrough ...
