| Sumario: | The purpose of this article is to apply a heuristic for the localization of p-medians, as a mean to identify the best locations for Federal Institutes in the state of Santa Catarina, in order to minimize transportation costs. Three scenarios were used: the first considers the population of Santa Catarina state, while the second, the number of students who have completed the primary school and the high school. The third scenario considers the illiteracy rate. The optimization was done through the heuristic of Teitz and Bart of the p-medians. The Teiz and Bart heuristic has proved to be an excellent approach for the p-median problem and presented outstanding results for decision-making by the public administration. |
