- Abstract
In this paper we consider the weighted minimax (1-center) location problem in the plane when the weights are not given but rather drawn from independent uniform distributions. The problem is formulated and analyzed. For certain parameters of the uniform distributions the objective function is proven to be convex and thus can be easily solved by standard software such as the Solver in Excel. Computational experience is reported.
