Abstract

A dynamic programming algorithm is presented to locate m variable facilities in relation to n existing facilities situated on one route. Each of the n existing facilities has a requirement flow which must be supplied by the variable facilities. The algorithm does the allocation simultaneously with the location. Computational experience indicates that relatively large problems may be solved optimally.
