In Taiwan, the so-called “e-Patrol” system is used to support policemen for providing patrol services. The policemen have also solved several criminal cases with the use of surveillance cameras of “e-Patrol” system. The setting of surveillance cameras is an important issue and a complex location problem. In this paper, under limited budgets, we propose a new hybrid IA-PSO approach which combines both the immune based algorithm and a PSO based algorithm to obtain the optimal design of multi-type surveillance cameras. Numerical results of various parameters by the proposed hybrid approach are reported and discussed.
