Description for Discrete and Fractional Programming Techniques for Location Models
Hardback. Integrating two seemingly unrelated fields - location analysis and fractional programming - this book tackles several location models that require combined solution techniques and theoretical results from both fields. It is suitable for researchers in mathematics, operations research and management science interested in combinatorial optimization. Series: Combinatorial Optimization. Num Pages: 198 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBT; TGP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 12. Weight in Grams: 1010.
At first sight discrete and fractional programming techniques appear to be two com pletely unrelated fields in operations research. We will show how techniques in both fields can be applied separately and in a combined form to particular models in location analysis. Location analysis deals with the problem of deciding where to locate facilities, con sidering the clients to be served, in such a way that a certain criterion is optimized. The term "facilities" immediately suggests factories, warehouses, schools, etc. , while the term "clients" refers to depots, retail units, students, etc. Three basic classes can be identified in location ...
