Network Optimization

Network optimization is a methodology to optmize flows or paths in a network given cost constraints. It is one of the most widely applicable spatial decision models (Thomas and Huggett 1980; Ghosh and Rushton 1986). A network consists of nodes (supply, demand, and transshipment points for resources) and arcs (paths over which resources flow between nodes) (Killer 1983; Malczewski and Ogryczak 1995).
