Please note that we have only calculated all necessary values in this and the following tables.
Since we assume symmetric costs, a calculation of pairwise permutations below the table-
diagonal would lead to identical values. Therefore, a double calculation is unnecessary. Fur-
thermore, a calculation of pairwise permutations of connected route sections (for example a
change of 01 ↔ 12) does not make sense, as this step wouldn’t cause a change of route (and
therefore costs wouldn’t change).
We use pairwise permutation, which leads to a maximal cost reduction. Through pairwise
permutation of route 12 (Kassel-Hamburg) and route 34 (Stuttgart-Berlin), the reduced costs
are of 289 €. Consequently, our new route costs 2566 − 289 = 2277 [€] and goes from
Münster via Kassel, Stuttgart, Hamburg, Berlin and Dresden back to Münster.

After the second iteration it becomes clear that a pairwise permutation of route 32 (Stuttgart-
Hamburg) and route 50 (Dresden-Münster) reduces costs of 429 €. Hence, the new route goes
from Münster, via Kassel, Stuttgart, Dresden, Berlin and Hamburg back to Münster and costs
2277 − 429 = 1848 [€] in total.

There are no further possible cost reductions. Consequently, the algorithm stops at this point.
Hence, the optimal route is found (Münster - Kassel - Stuttgart - Dresden - Berlin - Hamburg -
Münster) with costs of 1848 €.
Costs of the initial route: 2566 [€]
Costs of the optimal route: 1848 [€]
Therefore, a total of 718 € can be saved.
