Algorithms of the gods

Article Abstract:

Deriving equations from natural processes can help solve complex mathematical problems. For example, mathematicians have turned to simulated annealing to answer traveling salesman-type mathematical problems, which involves looking for the least number of routes to encounter large number of destinations.
