On Voting and Facility Location [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2016 ACM Conference on Economics and Computation, 2016 We study mechanisms for candidate selection that seek to minimize the social cost, where voters and candidates are associated with points in some underlying metric space. The social cost of a candidate is the sum of its distances to each voter. Some of our work assumes that these points can be modeled on a real line, but other results of ours are more ...

Continuous Facility Location on Graphs [PDF]
Mathematical Programming, 2020 AbstractWe study a continuous facility location problem on undirected graphs where all edges have unit length and where the facilities may be positioned on the vertices as well as on interior points of the edges. The goal is to cover the entire graph with a minimum number of facilities with covering range $$\delta >0$$

Adaptations of the 3T3-L1 adipocyte lipidome to defective ether lipid catabolism upon Agmo knockdown
Journal of Lipid Research, 2022 Little is known about the physiological role of alkylglycerol monooxygenase (AGMO), the only enzyme capable of cleaving the 1-O-alkyl ether bond of ether lipids.

GIS Exploitation for New Facility Location Decisions- A Logistics Perspective [PDF]
Journal of International Logistics and Trade, 2012 Logistical facility location decisions can make a crucial difference in the success or failure of a company. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) have recently become a very popular decision support system to help deal with facility location problems ...

Facility Location on Terrains [PDF]
, 1998 Given a terrain defined as a piecewise-linear function with n triangles, and m point sites on it, we would like to identify the location on the terrain that minimizes the maximum distance to the sites. The distance is measured as the length of the Euclidean shortest path along the terrain. To simplify the problem somewhat, we extend the terrain to (the

Truthful Two-Facility Location with Candidate Locations
Theoretical Computer Science, 2023 We study a truthful two-facility location problem in which a set of agents have private positions on the line of real numbers and known approval preferences over two different facilities. Given the locations of the two facilities, the cost of an agent is the total distance from the facilities she approves.

Reliable Facility Location Problem with Facility Protection.
PLoS ONE, 2016 This paper studies a reliable facility location problem with facility protection that aims to hedge against random facility disruptions by both strategically protecting some facilities and using backup facilities for the demands.
