Multiobjective Covering and Routing Problems

In this paper, we review research on point location covering problems and their development from the Maximal Covering Location Problem. With this as a basis, a particular path problem (the Maximal Covering Shortest Path Problem) is chosen to serve as a prototype combined covering - location - routing problem and possible developments are suggested. Finally, we discuss possible avenues for further research.
