The origins of the traveling salesman problem are obscure; it is mentioned in an 1832 manual for traveling salesman, which included example tours of 45 German cities but gave no mathematical consideration.2 W. R. Hamilton and Thomas Kirkman devised mathematical formulations of the problem in the 1800s.2 It is believed that the general form was first studied by Karl Menger in Vienna and Harvard in the 1930s.2,3 Hassler W… /Filter /FlateDecode In this case we obtain an m-salesmen problem. 0000018992 00000 n A short summary of this paper.

Let a network G = [N,A,C], that is N the set nodes, A the set of arcs, and C = [c ij] the cost matrix.That is, the cost of the trip since node i to node j.The TSP requires a Halmiltonian cycle in G of minimum cost, being a Hamiltonian cycle, one that passes to through each node i exactly once.

The ‘Travelling salesman problem’ is very similar to the assignment problem except that in the former, there are additional restrictions that a salesman starts from his city, visits each city once and returns to his home city, so that the total distance (cost or time) is minimum.
