[[Computational complexity]]: It is not correct that Travellling Salesman is a special case of the Quadratic Assignment Problem.
Line 23:
 
The problem is [[NP-hard]], i.e., requires long computation time even it its simplified cases, e.g., when all flows are equal to 1.
For example, the [[Travelling salesman problem]] may be seen as a special case of QAP, if one assumes that the flows connect facilities only along a single ring, all flows having the value of 1. Many other problems of standard [[combinatorial optimization]] problems may be written in this form.
