The solution of the Cooper location problem min 2 w,r," where r, is the radial (Euclidean) distance between the ith given location (a,, hi) and the center (x, y) to be located is further investigated. The iterative method given by Cooper (which includes the well known Weiszfeld procedure for n = 1)
In an earlier article we showed that, for facilities-location problems characterized by generalized distance norms and any even number of existing facilities, the optimal location of the new facility is at the intersection of the lines joining the pairs of facilities if these lines intersect at a si
Suppose that customers are situated at the nodes of a transportation network, and a service company plans to locate a number of facilities that will serve the customers. The objective is to minimize the sum of the total setup cost and the total transportation cost. The setup cost of a facility is de
