TRAVELING SALESMAN LOCATION PROBLEM

The problem of locating a single new facility relative to existing facilities has been studied extensively under the assumption that trips are always made between the new facility and a single existing facility each time a trip occurs. An iterative procedure is presented for solving the traveling salesman location problem; computational experience with the procedure is provided.
