- Title
A Maximum Expected Covering Location Model: Formulation, Properties and Heuristic Solution.
- Authors
Daskin, Mark S.
- Abstract
The maximum covering location model has been used extensively in analyzing locations for public service facilities. The model is extended to account for the chance that when a demand arrives at the system it will not be covered since all facilities capable of covering the demand are engaged serving other demands. An integer programming formulation of the new problem is presented. Several properties of the formulation are proven. A heuristic solution algorithm is presented and computational results with the algorithm are discussed. Directions for future study are also discussed.
