Abstract
Described are systems and methods directed to determining a topology for the efficient allocation and distribution of a service to customers that are distributed over a geographic area. For example, the topology can facilitate the planning, scheduling, and allocation of resources for the efficient provisioning of services to customers at locations distributed over the geographic area. Certain input parameters and/or constraints associated with the provisioning of the service may be processed to define a cost function that may represent a total cost of providing the service while ensuring that none of the constraints are exceeded. The cost function may be optimized to determine a lowest relative cost for providing the services to the customers using the various mechanisms and/or types of resources, and a topology associated with the optimized cost function can be generated to specify how the service should be provided to satisfy the demand.
