The proposed model cures the conceptual flaws in the classical solutions of the Traveling Salesperson Problem (TSP) and overcomes the complexity of the sub-tour elimination constraints and, for the first time, mathematically formulates precedence constraints, which is a cornerstone of the process planning problem.
