Malaysia has seen tremendous growth in the standard of living and household per capita income. The demand for a more systematic and efficient planning has become increasingly more important, one of the keys to achieving a high standard in healthcare. In this paper, a Maximal Covering Location Problem (MCLP) is used to study the healthcare facilities of one of the districts in Malaysia. We addre...

Three types of fuzzy random programming for capacitated location-allocation problem with fuzzy random demands are proposed according to different criteria, including the expected value model, chanceconstrained programming and dependent-chance programming. Finally, integrating the network simplex algorithm, fuzzy random simulation and genetic algorithm, a hybrid intelligent algorithm is produced...

Planning and defining places for the installation of police facilities are fundamental to improving public security service in urban space. Geographic Information Systems connecting spatial distribution occurrences, budgetary restrictions, maximum distance covered state-of-the-art innovations addressing need preventive responsive management. The present work proposes a management information sy...

Location-allocation of facilities in service systems is an essential factor of their performance. One of the considerable situations which less addressed in the relevant literature is to balance service among customers in addition to minimize location-allocation costs. This is an important issue, especially in the public sector. Reviewing the recent researches in this field shows that most of t...
