Abstract

This article considers the problem of locating multiple new facilities to minimize the cost function consisting of the sum of weighted distances among new facilities and between new and existing facilities. The hyperboloid approximate procedure (HAP) is probably the most widely used approach for solving this problem. In this article, an optimality condition for this problem is derived and a method to accelerate the convergence rate of the HAP for the case of Euclidean distances is presented. From the numerical results presented in this article, it can be concluded that the performance of the new algorithm is superior to the performance of the original HAP.
