 | A related problem is the bottleneck traveling salesman problem (bottleneck TSP): Find the Hamiltonian cycle in a weighted graph with the minimal length of the longest edge. |
 | In May 2004, the traveling salesman problem of visiting all 24,978 cities in Sweden was solved: a tour of length approximately 72,500 kilometers was found and it was proven that no shorter tour exists. |
 | In March 2005, the traveling salesman problem of visiting all 33,810 points in a circuit board was solved using CONCORDE: a tour of length 66,048,945 units was found and it was proven that no shorter tour exists, the computation took approximately 15.7 CPU years. |

Bottleneck traveling salesman problem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (390 words) |
 | The Bottleneck traveling salesman problem (bottleneck TSP) is a problem in discrete or combinatorial optimization. |
 | Euclidean bottleneck TSP, or planar bottleneck TSP, is the bottleneck TSP with the distance being the ordinary Euclidean distance. |
 | An example would be a salesperson traveling by train with a special ticket that is valid for any number of trips between two cities up to a certain distance. |
