A model that combines an inventory and location decision is presented, analyzed and solved. In particular, we consider a single distribution center location that serves a finite number of sales outlets for a perishable product. The total cost to be minimized, consists of the transportation costs...

This book is a volume in honor of Zvi Drezner's 75th birthday. Professor Drezner is a leading scholar in location science. He received his BSc degree in Mathematics in 1965 and his PhD. in Computer Science ten years later, both from the Technion in Haifa, Israel. Since 1978 he has published in...

The problem of locating facilities in a feasible area covering some parts of network links within a given radius is analyzed. The feasible area can be the interior (convex hull of the nodes) of a planar network or any union of convex polygons. Both minimization and maximization of coverage are...
