Description
Summary:Redistricting is a process to divide a land surface into two or more pieces by partitioning geographical zones or districts into territories, subject to some side constraints. Redistricting is an important spatial optimisation problem because it decides the space management of a particular region and is related to location dat. In some specific and scientific way, redistricting is multiple objectives combinatorial optimisation as it involves optimal arrangement of a group of discrete entities to satisfy various criteria for evaluating of the quantity of the given arrangement or solution.
