Abstract

In this paper, we have presented a solid travelling salesman problem (STSP) with introduction of time-window and constraints. In STSP, a traveller can avail different conveyance for travelling. Also as constraint, a risk factor is there joining a path between two cities. During a tour, the traveller must ensure that the entire risk of the tour is within a prearranged risk level. Costs, time, and risk factor of travel using different conveyances are dissimilar and interval in nature. Finding a complete tour with minimum cost is the goal of the problem, where risk and time-window constraints are also to be satisfied. The standard genetic algorithm (GA) is modified by adding three features, namely refinement, immigration, and refreshing population, and thus a modified GA is devised to solve the intended problem. The efficiency of the algorithm is tested by using some model datasets from TSPLIB and some existing benchmark test functions.
