Finding minimum path by using Genetic Algorithm (GA)/ Siti Zuraifah Hashim

In this paper we considered finding minimum path problem which is known as shortest path problem. This problem generalizes several traditional shortest path problems and has applications in transportation and communication networks. The objective of this problem is to determine the shortest route...
