Abstract

The intent of this book is to present recent developments and insights on optimal territory design problems. In the literature, territory design can also be referred as districting or zone design. In particular emphasis is given to modeling aspects, theory, and algorithmic development of recent complex developments on districting and territory design by leading experts in the field. The book includes some literature surveys on particular areas of districting such as police patrolling, health care districting, and computational geometry methods, and successful case studies in political and sales force deployment districting.
