A college space planning problem for an institution with high-density development on the campus site is examined. A model was developed that minimizes vertical student pedestrian movements. It is suggested that future investigators should consider a multiobjective approach to the resolution of space allocation problems. (Author/MLW)

It analyzed student and faculty contact hours, student load, full-time-equivalent staff, class size, and academic workload and integrated them into mathematical models for the fields. (MSE)
