摘要:
It is a well observed fact that in minisum multifacility location problems the optimal locations of several facilities often tend to coincide. Some sufficient conditions for this phenomenon, involving only the weights and applicable to any metric, have been published previously. The objective of this paper is to show how these conditions may be extended further and to obtain a more complete description of their implications, in particular, in the case of certain locational constraints.
