Abstract
In researches of many experts and scholars, TSP is widely used in reducing the cost of logistics distribution. However in practice, most ripe models and algorithms can not achieve expected goals, and one important reason is that the models and algorithms do not consider the "Stranger Problem" in logistics distribution. This paper describes the "Stranger Problem", and establishes an improved TSP model based on "Stranger Problem" by defining two parameters named "Strange Degree" and "Strange Coefficient". At last this paper improves C-W algorithms based me improved model, and the computational results are compared with the results based common model. The comparison proves the feasibility and efficiency of the improved model.
