Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering’s Alexander Khitun and Mykhaylo Balinskyy recently developed an innovative approach to finding solutions to the notoriously difficult Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP)—which vexed mathematicians and computer scientists for nearly a century—with enormous practical implications for breakthroughs in science and industry. The TSP is an example of a research area known as combinatorial optimization, or finding the best option among a range of possibilities that is far too big to check one at a time.
