Abstract

The present work focuses on the construction of an algorithm to solve a sport fishing circuit, applying combinatorial optimization techniques in order to generate the best solution to the problem of the route for sport fishing in the province of Neuquén. The planning and management of roads for routes with preferences requires efficient systems for route optimization. Its complexity is exponential. For the resolution of this type of problems, heuristics must be used to allow feasible solutions. To model a tourist circuit associated with sport fishing, the exploration of a restricted graph is used. It is framed within the Travelling Salesman Problem. A metaheuristic Taboo search algorithm, based on a local search, is proposed to find a solution to the problem [1].

Notes

  1. 1.

    A well-designed approximation algorithm shows that the difference between your solution and the optimal solution is a constant factor. This factor is called the approximation factor, and is “<1 for maximization” or “> 1 for minimization”. It depends on the application how close the approximate solution should be to the optimal solution.
