The traveling salesman problem is one of the basic problems that many theoretical computer scientists have been working on. Many scientists think that there is no algorithm for the traveling salesman ...

This repository archives a directed study project that implements and compares multiple methodologies for solving the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). The core of the study is a robust, quantitative ...

The Christofides algorithm is much closer to the optimal solution than the nearest neighbor, which demonstrates why it was such an important algorithm. Another notable revelation was just how ...

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 trillionth ...

Computers are good at answering questions. What’s the shortest route from my house to Area 51? Is 8,675,309 a prime number? How many teaspoons in a tablespoon? For questions like these, they’ve got ...

Imagine a traveling salesman with a list of cities he must travel to only once while covering the shortest possible distance, before returning to his starting location. This "traveling salesman ...

Abstract: With the integration of 5G communication technologies and Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) networks, the deployment of Extended Reality (XR), Vehicular Networks, and Smart City applications has ...
