I am unable to find the following articles on the Traveling Salesman 
Problem and would greatly appreciate it if someone could describe the 
algorithms used therein:

1) Alleles, Loci, and the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP)
   David Goldberg, Robert Lingle
   Proceedings of the 1st international conference on genetic algorithms
   (PICGA - 1) 1985

2) Genetic algorithms for the TSP
   John Grefensette, et al.
   PICGA - 1   1985

3) Using genetic algorithms to solve NP-complete problems
   Kenneth De Jong, William Spears
   PICGA - 3   1989

4) Scheduling problems and TS : The Genetic Edge Recombining Operator
   Darrell Whitley, et al.
   PICGA - 3   1989

5) An evolutionary approach to the TSP
   David B. Fogel  Biological Cybernetics: 60 : 139-144  (1988)

A brief summary of the proposed algorithm would suffice.  Many thanks
in advance.
