Algorithm 2

Reallocation of department’s area.
(1)Generate the proposed adjacency matrix for each department
(2)Extract an adjacency matrix from the proposed adjacency matrix
(3)Calculate the total closeness ratio (TCR) by summing the rows’ value at the proposed matrix
(4)Order the areas according to the priority of inserting them in the layout plan
(5)Calculate the layout plan using
Where aijϵ [0, 1] is the adjacency coefficient between activities i and j. V (r)ij is the weighting factor
