Globally Optimal Facility Locations for Continuous-Space Facility Location Problems

open access: yesApplied 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]

open access: yesAUT 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

Online Facility Location in Evolving Metrics

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2021
The Dynamic Facility Location problem is a generalization of the classic Facility Location problem, in which the distance metric between clients and facilities changes over time.

Robust facility location [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical 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 ...

On Voting and Facility Location [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings 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]

open access: yesMathematical 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 $$\delta >0$$

GIS Exploitation for New Facility Location Decisions- A Logistics Perspective [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
