Abstract

This paper is trying to find the optimal location of the production plant out of the few possibilities that have different costs associated with building the plant there. This paper first shows that this problem can be solved if the costs are rational numbers, then proves that it is impossible to have a computer program that can always solve this problem if the costs are constructive real numbers.
