유전자 알고리즘은 매개변수와 유전자 연산자 그리고 계획과 같은 다양한 요인들에 의해 영향을 받으며, 전통적인 방법을 통한 문제의 해결은 효율적이지만 전체적으로는 실행 가능성의 문제와 결과의 도출에 걸리는 시간의 문제가 있을 수 있다. 이에 따라 전통적인 유전자 알고리즘은 다양한 방법으로 수정 및 적용되어 질 수 있다. 본 연구는 Travelling Salesman 문제를 해결하기 위해 초기에 정렬된 인자를 사용하여 수정된 유전자 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 본 연구를 통한 접근 방법은 초기 문제의 크기를 줄이며 또한 빠른 복합 수렴을 달성하였다. 또한 제안된 방법은 객체지향 접근을 사용한 시뮬레이터를 통해 테스트 되었고 그 결과는 제안된 방법의 타당성을 입증하였다.

It's strongly needed to minimize the logistics response time for supporting military operations in wartime. In this paper, we suggest the ILP formulation for minimizing logistics response time in wartime. Main structure of this formulation is based on the traveling purchaser problem(TPP) which is a generalized form of the well-known traveling salesman problem(TSP). In the case of general TPP, objective function is to minimize the sum of traveling cost and purchase cost. But, in this study, objective function is to minimize traveling cost only. That's why it's more important to minimize traveling cost(time or distance) than purchase cost in wartime. We find out optimal solution of this problem by using ILOG OPL STUDIO(CPLEX v.11.1) and do the sensitive analysis about computing time according to number of operated vehicles.

This study proposes a genetic algorithm using Pr(equation omitted)fer number for the traveling salesman problem(PNGATSP). Nearest neighbor nodes are mixed with randomly selected nodes at the stage of generating initial solutions. Proposed PNGATSP adopts a few ideas which are different from traditional genetic algorithms. For instance, an exponential fitness function and elitism are used and Pr(equation omitted)fer number is used for encoding TSP. Genetic operators are selected by experiments, which make a good solution among four combinations of conventional genetic operators and new genetic operators. For respective combinations, robust set of parameters is determined by the experimental designing approach. The feature of Pr(equation omitted)fer number code for TSP and the search power of GA using Pr(equation omitted)fer number is analysed. The best is a combination of OX(order crossover) and swap, which is superior to the other experimented combinations of genetic operators by 1.0%∼12.8% deviation.

본 논문은 외판원 문제(TSP: Traveling Salesman Problem)를 이용하여 로봇중심의 FMC(Flexible Manufacturing Cell)에서 반송 로봇의 작업순서를 설계하는 방법을 제시하였다. 이를 위해, 먼저 다수의 설비와 반송 로봇으로 구성된 대표적인 로봇 중심의 FMC를 가상으로 설계한 후, 실험계획법을 이용하여 다양한 조건에서의 주요 반응변수들의 인과관계를 규명하였다. 실험결과, 처리량, 반송로봇의가동률, 그리고 Buffer의 평균 대기 작업물의 수가 주요 반응변수들로 선정되었으며, 이를 기반으로 순서기반 조합최적화 문제인 TSP로 로봇 작업순서를 설계하였다. 제안한 방법과 기존의 방법을 비교하기 위해서 시뮬레이션을 수행 한 결과 제안된 TSP 방법이 기존의 방법 보다 반송 로봇의 교착 (Deadlock) 상태를 방지하여 처리량 등 주요 반응변수들 모두를 향상 시키는 결과를 가져왔다. 더불어,이 방법은 본 연구에서 제시한 FMC 뿐 아니라 반도체나 LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) 생산 공정과 같이 반송 로봇에 의해 구성되어 있는 장치 산업분야에 적용가능하다는 측면에서 큰 효과가 기대된다.

This paper presents a model and a heuristic algorithm for the Traveling Salesman Problem with Time Windows(TSPTW). The main difference of our model compared with the previous ones lies in that the time windows we are concerned are more flexible and realistic than the previous ones. In the typical TSPTW, the service at a node must begin within the time grid called the time window that is defined by the earliest and the latest time to start the service at each node. But, in real business practice, a lateness cost is usually penalized rather than the service is prohibited at all when a vehicle arrives after the latest time. Considering this situation, we develop a model with a new time window that allows an arrival after the latest time and penalizes the late arrival by charging a lateness cost. A two-phased heuristic algorithm is proposed for the model and is extensively tested to verify the accuracy and efficiency of the algorithm.

This study presents a parallel branch-and-bound (PBAB) method for traveling salesman problem (TSP). The PBAB method adopts intermediate form of central control and distributed control in terms of the lightness of the master process's role. Compared with fully distributed control, the control scheme involves less concentration of communication on the master. Moreover, in order to reduce the influence of communication, the worker is composed of a computation thread and a communication thread. The multithreadness realizes the almost blocking free communications on the master. We implement the proposed PBAB method on a network of PCs, which consists of one master and up to 16 workers. We experiment five TSP instances. The results shows that the efficiency increases with the problem size.

The traveling salesman problem is a representative NP-Complete problem. It needs lots of time to get a solution as the number of city increase. So, we need an efficient heuristic algorithm that gets good solution in a short time. Almost edges that participate in optimal path have somewhat low value cost. This paper discusses the property of nearest neighbor and 3-opt. This paper uses nearest neighbor's property to select candidate edge. Candidate edge is a set of edge that has high probability to improve cycle path. We insert edge that is one of candidate edge into intial cycle path. As two cities are connected. It does not satisfy hamiltonian cycle's rule that every city must be visited and departed only one time. This paper uses 3-opt's method to sustain hamiltonian cycle while inserting edge into cycle path. This paper presents a highly efficient heuristic algorithm verified by numerous experiments.

This paper presents an efficient SOFM(self-organizing feature map) algorithm for the solution of the large scale TSPs(traveling salesman problems). Because no additional winner neuron for each city is created in the next competition, the proposed algorithm requires just only the N output neurons and 2N connections, which are fixed during the whole process, for N-city TSP, and it does not requires any extra algorithm of creation of deletion of the neurons. And due to direct exploitation of the output potential in adaptively controlling the neighborhood, the proposed algorithm can obtain higher convergence rate to the suboptimal solutions. Simulation results show about 30% faster convergence and better solution than the conventional algorithm for solving the 30-city TSP and even for the large scale of 1000-city TSPs.

For a long time, genetic algorithms have been recognized as a new method to solve difficult and complex problems and the performance of genetic algorithms depends on genetic operators, especially crossover operator. Various problems like the traveling salesman problem, the transportation problem or the job shop problem, in logistics engineering can be modeled as a sequencing problem This paper proposes modified genetic crossover operators to be used at various sequencing problems and uses the traveling salesman problem to be applied to a real world problem like the delivery problem and the vehicle routing problem as a benchmark problem Because the proposed operators use parental information as well as network information, they could show better efficiency in performance and computation time than conventional operators.

외판원 문제(Traveling Salesman Problem)는 주어진 n개의 도시들과 그 도시들간의 거리 비용이 주어졌을 매, 처음 출발도시에서부터 정확히 한 도시는 한 번씩만 방문하여 다시 출발도시로 돌아오면서 방문한 도시들을 연결하는 최소의 비용이 드는 경로를 찾는 문제로 최적해(optimal value)를 구하는 것은 전형적인 NP-완전 문제중의 하나이다[2,4,5, 8]. 따라서 이들의 수행시간을 줄이고자 하는 연구가 많이 진행된다. 본 논문에서는 외판원 문제의 최적의 해를 구하는데. 휴리스틱 알고리즘인 최근접 휴리스틱을 이용한다. 물론 수행 시간을 줄이고자 최적화 문제에서 좋은 성능을 보이는 유전 알고리즘 (Genetic Algorithm)으로 얻은 근사해(near optimal)를 초기 분기 함수로 사용하고, 근거리 통신망(Local Area Network)에 기반한 분산 처리 환경에서 여러 프로세서에 분산시켜 병렬성을 살린다.
