QAM-III Section G (2019-20)

Assignment 2 – TSP

Solve the 6-node TSP using the branch and bound method discussed in class. Use the distance data given against your roll
number in the table below. Set d(j,i) = d(i,j) + 5 for all (i,j). Solve the assignment sub-problems using the QM software.
Submit a handwritten sheet showing the complete branch and bound tree. Show the lower bound value for each node,
and the sub-tours in the solution next to that node. Properly label all branches. Number all nodes in the order of their
creation. Make sure that no unnecessary nodes are created. Clearly show the improvements in value of incumbent. Cross
out nodes as they get fathomed.
