| Résumé : | A family of discrete cooperative covering problems is analysed in this paper. Each facility emits a signal that decays by the distance and each demand point observes the total signal emitted by all facilities. A demand point is covered if its cumulative signal exceeds a given threshold. We wish to maximize coverage by selecting locations for p facilities from a given set of potential sites. Two other problems that can be solved by the max-cover approach are the equivalents to set covering and p-centre problems. The problems are formulated, analysed and solved on networks. Optimal and heuristic algorithms are proposed and extensive computational experiments reported. |
