Abstract
The problem considered is to locate a point in a given convex polyhedron which maximizes the minimum Euclidean distance from a given set of points. The paper describes several possible application areas and shows the existence of a finite set of candidates for the optimal solution. A combinatorial algorithm is presented for the problem in three dimensions, and it is compared with existing nonconvex programming algorithms.Keywords
