Abstract

In this paper, we applies two methods - Genetic Algorithm(GA) and $A^*$ Algorithm - to find the optimal path in route guidance system. Under the assumption that the traveling costs of each link are given, the task to find the optimal path becomes very complicated problem if the number of nodes or links increase. Two well-known algorithms are modified to resolve the problem and the preliminary demonstration show both optimistic result and needs to improvement.
