Abstract
In this paper, a new temporal extension of Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) – as an old optimization problem – is proposed. This proposal stems from a need to elucidate TSP not only as an optimization problem, but also as a potentially paradigmatic problem for the subject specification of temporal planning. This new Temporal Traveling Salesman Problem is described in two ways – in the graph-based depiction and in terms of logic to be interpreted later by the so-called fibred semantics.
