Facility location with hierarchical facility costs
We introduce a facility location problem with submodular facility cost functions, and give an O(log n) approximation algorithm for it. Then we focus on a special case of submodula...

Computing Approximate Solutions of the Maximum Covering Problem with GRASP
We consider the maximum covering problem, a combinatorial optimization problem that arises in many facility location problems. In this problem, a potential facility site covers a s...

A fast swap-based local search procedure for location problems
We present a new implementation of a widely used swap-based local search procedure for the p-median problem, proposed in 1968 by Teitz and Bart. Our method produces the same outpu...

Hybrid heuristics for the probabilistic maximal covering location-allocation problem
The Maximal Covering Location Problem (MCLP) maximizes the population that has a facility within a maximum travel distance or time. Numerous extensions have been proposed to enhan...

Randomized Local Search, Evolutionary Algorithms, and the Minimum Spanning Tree Problem
Randomized search heuristics, among them randomized local search and evolutionary algorithms, are applied to problems whose structure is not well understood, as well as to problems...
