Abstract:In this work we consider the shortest path problem and the single facility Weber location problem in any real space of finite dimension where there exist different types of polyhedral obstacles or forbidden regions. These regions are polyhedral sets and the metric considered in the space is the Manhattan metric. We present a result that reduce these continuous problems into problems in a "add hoc" graph, where the original problems can be solved using elementary techniques of Graph Theory. We show that, fixed … Show more
