I this method, ituitioistic trapezoidal fuzzy umbers are utilized to fid the fuzzy optimal solutio. This proposed method provides some of other fuzzy salesma problem very eighbour optimal solutio called fuzzy eighbourig optimal salesma.

INTRODUCTION Travellig salesma problem is a well-kow NP-hard problem i combiatorial optimizatio. I the ordiary form of travellig salesma problem, a map of cities is give to the salesma ad he has to visit all the cities oly oce ad retur to the startig poit to complete the tour i such a way that the legth of the tour is the shortest amog all possible tours for this map. The data cosists of weights assiged to the edges of a fiite complete graph ad the objective is to fid a cycle passig through all the vertices of the graph while havig the miimum total weight. There are differet approaches for solvig travellig salesma problem. Almostevery ew approach for solvig egieerig ad optimizatio problems has bee tried o travellig salesma problem. May methods have bee developed for solvig travellig salesma problem. These methods cosist of heuristic methods ad populatio based optimizatio algorithms etc. Heuristic methods like cuttig plaes ad brach ad boud ca optimally solve oly small problems whereas the heuristic methods such as 2-opt, 3-opt, Markov chai, simulated aealig ad tabu search are good for large problems. Populatio based optimizatio algorithms are a kid of ature based optimizatio algorithms. The atural systems ad creatures which are workig ad developig i ature are oe of the iterestig ad valuable sources of ispiratio for desigig ad ivetig ew systems ad algorithms i differet fields of sciece ad techology. Particle Swarm Optimizatio, Neural Networks, Evolutioary Computatio, At Systems etc. are a few of the problem solvig techiques ispired from observig ature. Travellig salesma problems i crisp ad fuzzy eviromet have received great attetio i recet years [1-4, 5,6,7,8,9,10,11]. With the use of LR fuzzy umbers, the computatioal efforts required to solve fuzzy assigmet problems ad fuzzy travellig salesma problem are cosiderably reduced [12]. I this paper, we itroduce ew method for fidig a fuzzy optimal solutio as well as of alterative solutios which is very ear to fuzzy optimal solutio for the give fuzzy travellig salesma problem. I sectio 2,recall the defiitio of ituitioistic trapezoidal fuzzy umber ad some operatios. I sectio 3, we preseted fuzzy travellig salesma problem ad algorithm. I sectio 4 umerical example. I sectio 5, coclusio is also icluded. 2. PRELIMINARIES I this sectio, some basic defiitios ad arithmetic operatios are reviewed

FUZZY TRAVELLING SALESMAN PROBLEMS The fuzzy travellig sales ma problem is very similar to the fuzzy assigmet problem expect that i the former, there is a additioal restrictios. Suppose a fuzzy salesma has to visit cities. He wishes to start from a particular city, visit each city oce, ad the retur to his startig poit.the objective is to select the sequece i which the cities are visited i such a way that his total fuzzy travellig time is miimized. Sice the salesma has to visit all cities, the fuzzy optimal solutio remais idepedet of selectio of startig poit. The mathematical form of the fuzzy travellig salesma is give below Miimize z = i=1 j =1 k=1 d ij x ijk i j Subject to i=1 = 1, i j, k=1,2, m j=1 x ijk j=1 = 1, i=1,2, m k=1 x ijk 309

A fuzzy assigmet i a row is said to be a miimum fuzzy assigmet if the fuzzy cost of the fuzzy assigmet is miimum i the row. A tour of a fuzzy travellig salesma problem is said to be miimum tour if it cotais oe or more miimum fuzzy assigmets. 3.1 ALGORITHM Step 1 Step 2 Fid the miimum assigmets for each row i the fuzzy cost matrix below ad above of leadig diagoal elemets. Fid all possible miimum tour ad their fuzzy costs. Step 3: Fid the miimum of the all fuzzy costs of the miimum possible tours say z. Step 4: The tour correspodig to z is the fuzzy optimal tour ad z is the fuzzy optimal value of the tour. 4.
