Abstract

This paper presents a new search procedure to tackle multi-objective traveling salesman problem (TSP). This procedure constructs the solution at-tractor for each of the objectives respectively. Each attractor contains the best solutions found for the corresponding objective. Then, these attractors are merged to find the Pareto-optimal solutions. The goal of this procedure is not only to generate a set of Pareto-optimal solutions, but also to provide the infor-mation about these solutions that will allow a decision-maker to choose a good compromise solution.
