Abstract: In this paper we deal with the vertex k-center problem, a problem which is a part of the discrete location theory. Informally, given a set of cities, with intercity distances specified, one has to pick k cities and build warehouses in them so as to minimize the maximum distance of any city from its closest warehouse. We examine several approximation algorithms that achieve approximation factor of 2 as well as other heuristic algorithms. In particular, we focus on the clustering algorithm by... (Update)
