Dynamic Facility Location with Stochastic Demand
Determination of facilities, such as factories or warehouses, location and availability conditions is one of the important and strategic decisions for an organization to make. Transportation costs that form a major part of goods price are dependent to this decision making. There are verity of methods have been presented to achieve the optimal locations of these facilities which are generally de...
متن کاملFacility Location with Stochastic Demand and Constraints on Waiting Time
W analyze the problem of optimal location of a set of facilities in the presence of stochastic demand and congestion. Customers travel to the closest facility to obtain service; the problem is to determine the number, locations, and capacity of the facilities. Under rather general assumptions (spatially distributed continuous demand, general arrival and service processes, and nonlinear location...
متن کاملCapacitated Facility Location With Distance-Dependent Coverage Under Demand Uncertainty
We consider a facility location problem to determine the points of dispensing medicine or supplies in a large-scale emergency. For this problem we consider capacitated facilities, a distance-dependent coverage function, and demand uncertainty. We formulate a special case of the maximal covering location problem (MCLP) with a loss function, to account for the distance-sensitive demand, and chanc...

Choosing locations to provide service under various constraints and objectives is an essential logistic activity in several contexts. Manufacturers choose locations for facilities and sales depots, government agencies choose locations for fire stations and other service installations, politicians choose ideological positions in the space of political agendas, etc. The field of location theory i...
متن کاملMulti-period capacitated facility location under delayed demand satisfaction
We address an extension of the classical multi-period facility location problem in which customers are sensitive to delivery lead times. Accordingly, two customer segments are considered. The first segment comprises customers that require timely demand satisfaction, whereas customers accepting delayed deliveries make up the second segment. Each customer belonging to the latter segment specifies...
