123. kolokvium:
THE TRAVELING SALESMAN PROBLEM
W. Cook

Abstract.
Is it possible to compute the shortest route through a large number
of stops? The task, known as the traveling salesman problem, or TSP
for short, sounds simple enough. And it arises in many practical
contexts, such as guiding a van to bring packages to your doorstep.
But even a whisper of the TSP strikes fear in the heart of the computing
world. A Washington Post article reported it would take "1,000 years to
compute the most efficient route between 22 cities." Claims such as this,
however, ignore 70 years of intense study. A 22-city TSP can be handled in
a snap with modern methods, even on an iPhone. Going larger, we describe
techniques that have been used to find to precise optimality the shortest
walk to 49,687 pubs in the UK. Or if you need to visit the nearest 2,079,471
stars, there is a route, ready to go, that is guaranteed to be no more than
1.0000074 times longer than a shortest possible tour.
The general setting is the following. Complexity theory suggests there are
limits to the power of general-purpose computational techniques, in
engineering,
science and elsewhere. But what are these limits and how widely do they
constrain our quest for knowledge? The TSP can play a crucial role in this
discussion, demonstrating whether or not focused efforts on a single,
possibly
unsolvable, model will produce results beyond our expectations.
We will discuss the history of the TSP and its applications, together with
computational efforts towards exact and approximate solutions.
