On a Constrained Optimal Location Algorithm
Journal of Computational Analysis and Applications, 2003Summary: In problems of optimal location, one seeks a position or location that optimizes a particular objective function; this objective function typically relates location and distances to a fixed point set. When one's search is restricted to a given set, we refer to this as a constrained optimal location problem.

Optimal Consolidation of Polling Locations
Manufacturing & Service Operations ManagementProblem definition: Many logistical and financial challenges of facilitating an election lead election officials to consolidate polling locations. However, determining when it is appropriate to consolidate polling locations and how to consolidate polling locations, if necessary, is a difficult and high-stakes decision that influences voter ...

Impact of the Norm on Optimal Locations
2009Our research sets in the field of k -facilities location-allocation problems. More precisely, we developed an approach, that aims to assess the sensitivity of centers to different metrics used to locate them, according to various spatial distributions of demands. We start by a concise state of the art.

Optimal Location and Gains of Feedback Controllers at Discrete Locations
AIAA Journal, 1998The dynamic responses of elastic structures due to vibrations are very important and can produce conditions that can vary from uncomfortable to unsafe. For this reason, optimally designed and placed control devices are very important for the reduction of these vibrations.

Numerical Functional Analysis and Optimization, 2001
A Chebyshev center of a set A in a normed space is a location that minimizes the maximum distance to the set A. In many applications, this center may be regarded as an optimal location. In an inner product space, we characterize the linnearly constrained optimal location in terms of the unconstrained optimal location of an associated set (and show that

Optimal Facility Location with Concave Costs
Operations Research, 1974The following problem is considered: select plant sites from a given set of sites and choose their production and distribution levels to meet known demand at discrete points at minimum cost. The construction and operating cost of each plant is assumed to be a concave function of the total production at that plant, and the distribution cost between ...

As a consequence of increased electricity market, the distribution systems have been restated to consider alternative generation sources. These sources with a maximum capacity of less than 100 MW are defined as distributed generation (GD). Most DGs are usually connected to the electrical network without planned and dispatched control, since traditional
