Traffic Tsp

The Traffic Routing Optimization Problem (TRO) is a variation of the well-known Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), which aims to find the most efficient route for a vehicle to visit a set of locations, considering traffic conditions. The goal is to minimize both the travel time and distance by navigating through dynamically changing traffic patterns. Unlike traditional TSP, which only focuses on the shortest path, TRO incorporates real-time traffic data to adapt the route accordingly.
In TRO, the solution must account for multiple factors, including:
- Traffic congestion
- Road closures and detours
- Optimal time windows for deliveries or pickups
"The Traffic Routing Optimization Problem seeks to minimize total travel time, considering dynamic traffic data and route constraints."
To illustrate the complexity, let’s look at a sample problem where a fleet of delivery vehicles must visit multiple cities, while avoiding traffic jams that may cause delays.
City | Distance (km) | Average Traffic Delay (mins) |
---|---|---|
City A | 50 | 15 |
City B | 70 | 30 |
City C | 90 | 20 |
