BILLBOARD ADVERTISING MODELING BY USING NETWORK COUNT LOCATION PROBLEM

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT ENGINEERING - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

Many applications in engineering and science rely on the optimization of computationally cost functions. A successful approach in such states is to couple an evolutionary algorithm with a mathematical model which replaces the cost function. By considering of importance of advertising in the business declaration, especially billboard advertising, in this paper we have formulated billboard selection decision making, by using network count location approach which determine informative links in a network, to optimize cost of advertising and billboard visiting. Then, opposition based colonial competitive algorithm, which originally inspired by imperialistic competition, is used to solve mathematical model. Also, we implement proposed model on Sioux Falls city network.
