Dear Konstantinos,

You can have open-sources SAT solver, QC Simulators, D-Wave open-sources.

Also i suggest to you links and attached files in subject.

Dear Drs Lafifi and Mostafa,

thank you for your suggestions are indeed very helpful. I am interested mainly in optimization of problems similar to salesman problem but the information you provide is sufficient to dive deeper in the subject.

Best regards,

Konstantinos
