Abstract

We consider a minimax facility location problem for n points such that the facility is a line segment of a given length. The general problem can be solved by case analysis in O ( n 4 log n ) time. When the orientation of the segment is fixed, the problem is shown to be linear-time solvable by using the prune-and-search technique. Other variations of this problem are also discussed.
