The Uncapacitated Facility Location Problem (UFLP) is one of the most widely studied discrete location problems, whose applications arise in a variety of settings. We tackle the U...
Abstract. We give logarithmic approximation algorithms for the nonmetric uncapacitated multicommodity and multilevel facility location problems. The former algorithms are optimal u...
In combinatorial optimization, a popular approach to NP-hard problems is the design of approximation algorithms. These algorithms typically run in polynomial time and are guarante...
We consider the polyhedral approach to solving the capacitated facility location problem. The valid inequalities considered are the knapsack, ow cover, e ective capacity, single d...
This paper presents a dynamic (or multi-period) hub location problem. It proposes a branch-and-bound algorithm that uses a Lagrangean relaxation to obtain lower and upper bounds a...
