Lower-bounded facility location
We study the lower-bounded facility location problem, which generalizes the classical uncapacitated facility location problem in that it comes with lower bound constraints for the...

Greedy Strikes Back: Improved Facility Location Algorithms
A fundamental facility location problem is to choose the location of facilities, such as industrial plants and warehouses, to minimize the cost of satisfying the demand for some c...

A hybrid multistart heuristic for the uncapacitated facility location problem
We present a multistart heuristic for the uncapacitated facility location problem, based on a very successful method we originally developed for the p-median problem. We show exte...
