A Heuristic Procedure for the Layout of a Large Number of Facilities

A new approach to the solution of the facilities layout problem on the plane is presented in this paper. A simple procedure that can replace the dispersion phase of DISCON is constructed. The result of the new method is a scatter diagram of the facilities on the plane that can be used by practitioners as guidelines for planning the layout. Since the method is simple and effective, large layout problems can be solved efficiently by it.
