The algorithmic formulation of this problem is based on the traveling salesman problem (TSP), and so in this thesis I offer a review of the mathematical technique of linear programming in the context of its application to the TSP, an overview of some variations of the TSP and algorithms for approximating and solving them, and formulations without solutions of two novel TSP variations which are useful for modeling the original problem. 2013-07-11 English text Oberlin College Honors Theses / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oberlin1368052652 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oberlin1368052652 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
