In this paper we consider several facility location problems with applications to cost and social welfare optimization, when the area map is encoded as a binary (0,1) mxn matrix. We present algorithmic solutions for all the problems. Some cases are too particular to be used in practical situations, but they are at least a starting point for more generic solutions.
In this paper we present some new, practical, geometric optimization techniques for computing polygon partitions, 1D and 2D point, interval, square and rectangle covers, as well as 1D and 2D interval and rectangle K-centers. All the techniques we present have immediate applications to several cost optimization and facility location problems which are quite common in practice. The main technique employed is dynamic programming, but we also make use of efficient data structures and fast greedy algorithms.
Optimized data transfer services are highly demanded nowadays, due to the large amounts of data which are frequently being produced and accessed. In this paper we consider several data transfer service optimization problems (optimal server location in path networks, optimal packet sequencing and minimum makespan packet scheduling), for which we provide novel algorithmic solutions.
