  • Abstract
    The system of vehicle repair service is a problem that needs to research on the location of repair centers according to the service needs and available resource based on the maximal covering location and priority queuing theory. Considering the effect of waiting time due to rush jobs, this paper proposes a model that maximizes the service covering, and restrains the service level of uncovered zones. Model application with solution approaches by LINGO is provided through an example illustrations to demonstrates the applicability of the model.
