From the introduction: "The traveling salesman problem is a problem of combinatorial type. Although problems of this type sometimes have a relatively simple formulation, there are many difficulties associated with their solution even when the most up-to-date computers are used. In the 1970s many papers have been devoted to this problem. The purpose of the vast majority of them has been to find more effective solution algorithms. "In this paper we give the solution of the traveling salesman problem via disjunctive graphs. Up to now the elements of disjunctive graphs have been used to solve problems connected with the determination of an optimal task completion sequence.''
