Abstract:

In this paper we address the problem of locating p mobile service units in an n-dimensional space minimizing the expected response time. It is shown that an optimal solution to the problem is a degenerate distribution for the service, concluding that it is optimal to park the p units. This extends previous results in the literature for location on a segment.
