Consider a truck running along a road. It picks up a load Li at point i and delivers it at i, carrying at most one load at a time. The speed on the various parts of the road in on...
In multi-criteria optimization, several objective functions are to be optimized. Since the different objective functions are usually in conflict with each other, one cannot conside...
This paper deals with the problem of constructing a Hamiltonian cycle of optimal weight, called TSP. We show that TSP is 2/3-differential approximable and can not be differential a...
One of the most important applications of the Asymmetric Hamiltonian Path Problem is in scheduling. In this paper we describe a variant of this problem, and develop both a mathemat...
We present two polynomial-time approximation algorithms for the metric case of the maximum traveling salesman problem. One of them is for directed graphs and its approximation rat...
