Location problems in the public sector
The location problem taxonomy distinguishes two classes of network-based location models and problems. The classes are public and private sector problems. The authors have focused on the first of these two areas and analysed the specific features of related problems. The covering models are selected from the set of the basic location problems as the models, which fit most of the public location problems. A broad set of maximal covering problem extensions with mobile facilities are presented in this paper. The first of these is facility location and the equipment emplacement model, which complies with the necessity to cover each demand with two different facilities. The next presented model includes so-called backup coverage and takes into consideration the situation, when the nearest facility is busy just satisfying other demand. This phenomena, congestion of a facility and following queueing process, is included into the last model, which is the maximum expected covering location problem. The last section of this contribution is devoted to the \(p\)-median models for public facility location. Besides basic models and explanation of their possible usage in the public sector, the authors deal with problem of facility location under dynamic demand and accessibility in the associated network. They consider a changing network, distinguish a given number of scenarios and try to minimize the maximal regret of all these scenarios. For this purpose, they formulate a min-max \(p\)-median problem and show a way to process this task. In the conclusion great attention is paid to the expected development in the public sector location theory. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0988.00044].
