Distance Measures
Using the Rectilinear Distance measure

di(x,y) = |ai - x| + |bi - y|
 Using the Euclidean Distance measure

di(x,y) = [(ai - x)2 + (bi - y)2]1/2
 Using the Squared Euclidean Distance
measure (Used in Center of Gravity!)

di(x,y) = {[(ai - x)2 + (bi - y)2]1/2}2

SFL with Rectilinear Distance:
Median Problem

Place Existing Facilities in a Non-Decreasing Order of the
Coordinates (x and y, separately)

Find the Cumulative Sum of the Weights and obtain the
Median

The Coordinate which corresponds to the Cumulative Sum
of the Weights just Exceeding the Median point is the
Median Location for the New Facility
Example

Suppose four hospitals are located within a
city at A(10,6), B(8,5), C(4,3), and D(15,6).
Locate a centralized blood-bank facility at
(x, y) that will serve the hospitals. The
number of deliveries to be made per year
between the blood-bank and each hospital
is estimated to be 350, 900, 420, and 1350,
respectively.

Transportation Model
M different sources
 N different customers
 Si represents the capacity at source i
 Dj represents the demand of customer j
 cij is the cost per unit to produce the product
