Improved starting solutions for the planar p-median problem [PDF]
Yugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2021 In this paper we present two new approaches for finding good starting solutions to the planar p-median problem. Both methods rely on a discrete approximation of the continuous model that restricts the facility locations to the given set of demand points.

Close-Enough Facility Location
Mathematics, 2021 This paper introduces the concept of close-enough in the context of facility location. It is assumed that customers are willing to move from their homes to close-enough pickup locations.

The inverse minisum circle location problem [PDF]
Yugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2022 Let n weighted points be given in the plane. The inverse version of the minisum circle location problem deals with modifying the weights of points with minimum cost, such that the sum of the weighted distances from the circumference of a given circle C ...

Globally Optimal Facility Locations for Continuous-Space Facility Location Problems
Applied Sciences, 2021 The continuous-space single- and multi-facility location problem has attracted much attention in previous studies. This study focuses on determining the globally optimal facility locations for two- and higher-dimensional continuous-space facility ...

Inverse minimax circle location problem with variable coordinates [PDF]
AUT Journal of Mathematics and Computing, 2022 Traditionally, the minimax circle location problems concern finding a circle $C$ in the plane such that the maximum distance from the given points to the circumference of the circle is minimized. The radius of the circle can be fixed or variable. In this

Robust facility location [PDF]
Mathematical Methods of Operations Research (ZOR), 2003 Let A be a nonempty finite subset of the plane representing the geographical coordinates of a set of demand points (towns, …), to be served by a facility, whose location within a given region S is sought. Assuming that the unit cost for a∈A if the facility is located at x∈S is proportional to dist(x,a) — the distance from x to a — and that demand of ...
