Abstract

Management optimization is very important in tourism, especially when it is related to productivity. One of the problems in management optimization is tour guide assignment. Well-arranged tour guide assignment will increase productivity while maintaining service quality. A cellular genetic algorithm is one of the methods that can be used to solve this problem. Furthermore, previous study has shown that a cellular dimension increase can lead to promising benefits for certain problems. The objective of this research is to give a clear understanding of the advantages of increasing cellular dimensionality on the tour guide assignment problem by using a cellular genetic algorithm.
