A Genetic Algorithm (GA) to solve a problem in telecommunication network design is described. The problem is to partition a large urban project area into smaller service sections, which can be controlled by a single standard communication switch. The GA incorporates geometric and topological information from the project area by operating directly with a grid of geographically dispersed demand points. Computational results show this to be a promising technique for partitioning the project area and positioning the control switches. Tests were realized with real instances taken from large areas in the city of Sao Paulo. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
