Abstract :
Mammography screening done by mobile unit is a good tool to identify early breast cancer in remote area. The paper analyzes the problem of optimally planning the traveling of the medical team. The problem is modeled as a bi-criteria traveling salesman problem. An algorithm for determining a lex-min solution of this problem, based on branch and bound method is given.
