Popis: We provide a Dual-GA technique for solving the Multiple Travelling Salesman Problem (mTSP) while constraining distance between robots. Other techniques primarily solve for full network connectivity, with energy efficiency as a secondary objective. Our technique makes no assumptions about the desired balance between connectivity and energy efficiency. Instead, it produces a range of solutions for the decision-maker to select from. It uses NSGA-II for the primary GA, with a secondary GA periodically adding waypoints for greater connectivity. We introduce the Dual-GA and analyse its performance compared to other algorithms.
