Datasets for the team orienteering problem (TOP) and generalized team orienteering problem (GTOP)

<p>The six datasets are used in the following paper: &nbsp;Wenzheng Xu , Weifa Liang, Zichuan Xu, Jian Peng, Dezhong Peng, Tang Liu, Xiaohua Jia, and Sajal K. Das,&ldquo;Approximation algorithms for the generalized team orienteering problem and its applications,&rdquo;<em><strong>which was submitted to journal</strong> </em>IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking (ToN) .</p> <p>Specific descriptions for the datasets:</p> <p><strong>1. GTOP-chargingPerformanceTable.xlsx</strong>: the performance comparison of different algorithms in rechargable sensor networks. Some results were published in the following paper: Wenzheng Xu, Zichuan Xu, Jian Peng, Weifa Liang, Tang Liu, Xiaohua Jia, and Sajal K. Das,&ldquo;Approximation algorithms for the team orienteering problem,&rdquo;in Proc. 39th IEEE International Conference on Computer Communications (INFOCOM), 2020, pp. 1389&ndash;1398.</p> <p><strong>2.</strong> <strong>GTOP-chargingTestInstances.rar</strong>: the test instances of rechargable sensor networks.</p> <p><strong>3.
