Abstract

Arc routing problem being one of the well known problems in combinatorial optimization is handled in this paper. The Chinese postman problem which is an arc routing problem, has many applications in real life problems such as mail delivery, road maintenance, routing of patrol cars and snow ploughs and bus scheduling. In this paper; after the explanation of basic concepts of Chinese postman problem, information about the types of Chinese postman problem is given. Then the solution methods for the undirected Chinese postman problem are examined and one of the solution methods, minimum length-matching method, is applied to the routing of a patrol car.

Özet

Ayrıt rotalama problemi, birleşi en iyilemenin temel problemlerinden biridir. Bu çalışmada, ayrıt rotalama problemlerinden Çinli postacı problemi incelenmektedir. Çinli postacı probleminin gerçek hayatta; mektup dağıtımı, yol bakımı, polis devriye araçlarının ve kar temizleme araçlarının rotalarının belirlenmesi ve otobüs çizelgelemesi gibi pek çok uygulamasını görmek mümkündür. Çalışmada, önce Çinli postacı problemiyle ilgili temel kavramlar, problemin çeşitleri ve yönsüz Çinli postacı probleminin çözüm yöntemleri incelenmektedir. Daha sonra ise, belli bir bölgedeki yollardan geçmek zorunda olan bir polis devriye aracının en iyi rotasının bulunması, yönsüz Çinli postacı problemi olarak ele alınmaktadır. Model, en kısa mesafeli eşleştirme yöntemi kullanılarak çözülmekte ve polis devriye aracının en iyi rotası belirlenmektedir.
