This paper, introduces a new problem in the field of combinatorial problems as Consumers Adjacency Problem (CAP). Assume a set of resources with specific utility values. Also assume a set of consumers that are common in the resources. Each of packing of the consumers is one of the solution space points. In a given packing, if whole consumers of a given resource are continuous adjacent, the utility value of the resource adds to the objective function. It is desired to determine the suitable pack the consumers in order to have the maximum sum of utility value of resources. To the one-dimensional problem, in this paper, a formulation based on the mathematical programming is provided and a heuristic solving method is introduced. Also, as a useful application, project risk ranking by CAP is discussed.
