The Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are delimited geographic areas located within the borders of a country with the objective of impulsing the local economy of a specific region. The SEZs have multiple labor and fiscal benefits that allow them to enhance the economic level of the region through the generation of quality jobs, export growth, government investment, and technology transfer, just to name a few. China and other countries have demonstrated the benefits of SEZs and the economic impact on the local region. The goal of this article proposes a methodology based on Integer Linear Programming to generate SEZs where the population of the region, the distance and travel time between municipalities, the infrastructure of the region, and the Federal Laws imposed by the governments are considered. Experimental results based on real instances of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, México, validate the method and enable a graphical visualization of the solution.

Las Zonas Económicas Especiales (ZEEs) son áreas geográficas delimitadas ubicadas dentro de las fronteras de un país con el objetivo de impulsar la economía local de una región específica. Las ZEEs tienen múltiples beneficios laborales y fiscales que les permiten mejorar el nivel económico de la región a través de la generación de empleos de calidad, crecimiento de las exportaciones, inversión gubernamental y transferencia de tecnología, solo por nombrar algunos. China y otros países han demostrado los beneficios de las Zonas Económicas Especiales y el impacto económico para la región local. El objetivo de este artículo es proponer una metodología basada en Programación Lineal Entera para generar ZEE donde se consideran la población de la región, la distancia y el tiempo de viaje entre los municipios, la infraestructura de la región y las Leyes Federales impuestas por los gobiernos. Los resultados experimentales basados en instancias reales del Istmo de Tehuantepec, México, validan el método y permiten una visualización gráfica de la solución.
