Beschreibung:
Prof. Dr. Horst W. Hamacher hat an der Universität Köln Mathematik, Physik und Wirtschaftswissenschaften studiert, war 7 Jahre Professor für Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen und Leiter des Forschungszentrum COCO (Center for Optimization and Combinatorics) an der University of Florida, USA, und ist seit 1988 Professor für Wirtschaftsmathematik der Universität Kaiserslautern.
The book covers both theory and applications of locational analysis (LocAn). The reader will see the power of LocAn models in various real-world contexts varying from communication design, robotics, mail delivery, etc. As such it is a valuable source for practitioners, lecturers and students. The book is divided into two parts: The first part contains chapters in which an overview of some of the LocAn methodologies is given. The second part describes in more detail some selected applications. The book is well-suited as source for a graduate course, but also for students, lecturers and practitioners who want to learn about LocAn through self-study. It gives researchers a state-of-the-art review of available location models.
