Example 3: Figure given below shows two layout options for a facility. The distance between adjacent dept is 10 m. No diagonal movement is possible. The table shows the dept processing sequence of various products and their quantities per month. Which layout is better? Layout A Layout B
5 3 4 1 2 6 4 5 3 2 6 1

Product M N O

Dept Processing Sequence 6-4-3 1-5-2 4-2-6

Quantity per Month 1000 2000 3000

Example 6:
A state university is attempting to locate the best site for a new student center and athletic complex. The university administration would like to know what the best location is relative to the four main concentrations of student housing and classroom activity on campus. These coordinates of these housing and class room areas and daily student populations are as follows: Anderson Dorm Complex X = 1000 Y= 1250 W=7000 Ball Housing Complex X=1500 Y=2700 W=9000 Carter Classroom Complex X=2000 Y=700 W=11500 Derring Classroom complex X=2200 Y=2000 W=4300

Determine the best site for the new student center & athletic complex.
