> The proposed project extends the early effort described at 
> http://www2.tcs.ifi.lmu.de/~ramyaa/publications/patrol.pdf
> As described in the paper, in early efforts a single patrol car was assumed 
> to derive patrol routes based on Voronoi diagrams. However the problem 
> becomes more complicated when we have multiple patrol cars and multiple 
> criminals. Some issues include: Do we spend multiple cars into crime areas 
> with more crime rates? If one car is answering to a 911 call, then do we 
> redistribute the other cars to cover the entire area? Consider a junction 
> such as a T-junction, and let there be two cars – one on each arm of the “T”; 
>  We would want to schedule the two cars such that they are not at the 
> junction at the same time (i.e., when the car on the horizontal arm is in the 
> middle, we want the car on the vertical arm to be at the bottom).
> Such patrolling and scheduling can be optimized using techniques such as 
> genetic algorithms. In this, each  patrol and schedule combination is 
> assigned a value calculated by an objective function. Typically this is the 
> average time taken by cars to answer 911 calls. We then use optimizing 
> techniques to reduced this objective function.
