Study on Problems of Terminal Site Location

Abstract

This paper, like previous ones, intends to facilitate the over-all evaluation, expanding the cost-benefit theory by incorporating the problems of surrounding areas. From the viewpoint of land use, we are able to apply linear programming to mixed land use, while 0-1 mixed integer programming is applicable to the case where mixed land use is not possible. Next, we shall be able to establish a standard of decentralized achievement by the application of duality problems to the model. Although this paper is unable to provide a direct and complete solution for actual problems, the proposed method in this paper may become a valuable source of information for policy-making.
