Abstract

In this paper we define and heuristically solve the multiple weighted obnoxious facilities location problem maximizing the minimum weighted distance between facilities and a given set of communities. Each community may have a different weight because different communities may be affected differently by a facility. The distance between pairs of facilities must exceed a given minimum distance. Solving the problem by the multi-purpose non-linear solver SNOPT from random starting locations performed poorly. Three approaches are proposed to generate “good” starting solutions. The best known solutions were established by these approaches.
