bchtsp.gms : Traveling Salesman Problem Instance with BCH


The model writes an AWK script on the fly to process the an input file
format defined by the maintainers of the TSPLib. More input instances
are available from

http://www.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de/groups/comopt/software/TSPLIB95/

The subtour elimination constraints are supplied on the fly while
GAMS/CPLEX is running. The incumbent checking BCH call checks if
the integer solution contains subtours, stores the corresponding
cuts, and rejects the solution. The cut BCH call supplies the cuts
produced by the previous call.
