Not long ago, a team of researchers from Stanford and McGill universities broke a 35-year record in computer science by an almost imperceptible margin — four hundredths of a trillionth of a ...

This "traveling salesman problem" has been studied for decades ... To create a more dynamic algorithm for day trip planning, Google Trips also takes into account the "value" of an attraction ...

The travelling salesman problem (TSP) remains one of the most challenging NP‐hard problems in combinatorial optimisation, with significant implications for logistics, network design and route ...

And then there's the great, bewildering problem surveyed in William J. Cook’s In Pursuit of the Traveling Salesman: Mathematics at the Limits ... Other tour-finding algorithms find clusters of short ...

The travelling salesman problem seems simple, but it is notoriously difficult. It can be solved for specific data sets, but a general algorithm to solve any instance of the problem hasn’t yet ...
