Praise for the "First Edition"This book is refreshing to read
since it takes an important topic... and presents it in a clear and
concise manner by using examples that include visual presentations
of the problem, solution methods, and results along with an
explanation of the mathematical and procedural steps required to
model the problem and work through to a solution." "--Journal of
Classification"
Thoroughly updated and revised, "Network and Discrete Location:
Models, Algorithms, and ""Applications, Second Edition "remains the
go-to guide on facility location modeling. The book offers a unique
introduction to methodological tools for solving location models
and provides insight into when each approach is useful and what
information can be obtained.
The "Second Edition "focuses on real-world extensions of the
basic models used in locating facilities, including production and
distribution systems, location-inventory models, and
defender-interdictor problems. A unique taxonomy of location
problems and models is also presented. Featuring examples using the
author's own software--SITATION, MOD-DIST, and MENU-OKF--as well as
Microsoft Office(R) Excel(R), the book provides:
- A theoretical and applied perspective on location models and
algorithms- An intuitive presentation of the uses and limits of
modeling techniques- An introduction to integrated
location-inventory modeling and defender-interdictor models for the
design of reliable facility location systems- A full range of
exercises to equip readers with an understanding of the basic
facility location model types
"Network and Discrete Location: Models, Algorithms, and
Applications, Second Edition "is an essential resource for
practitioners in applied and discrete mathematics, operations
research, industrial engineering, and quantitative geography. The
book is also a useful textbook for upper-level undergraduate,
graduate, and MBA courses.
