A heuristic method for large-scale multi-facility location problems
A heuristic method for solving large-scale multi–facility location problems is presented. The method is analogous to Cooper’s method [3], using the authors’ single facility location method [20] as a parallel subroutine, and reassigning customers to facilities using the heuristic of Nearest Center Reclassification. Numerical results are reported.
متن کاملSolving Constrained Two-facility Location Problems
A general approach to optimally solve multiple facility location problems based on the “Big Triangle Small Triangle” approach to solving single facility problems is proposed. The proposed procedure is especially effective when the solution is constrained to a given polygon such as the convex hull of demand points. The procedure is tested on the two facilities Weber problem with attraction and r...

متن کاملAn effective heuristic for large-scale capacitated facility location problems
The Capacitated Facility Location Problem (CFLP) consists of locating a set of facilities with capacity constraints to satisfy the demands of a set of clients at the minimum cost. In this paper we propose a simple and effective heuristic for largescale instances of CFLP. The heuristic is based on a Lagrangean relaxation which is used to select a subset of “promising” variables forming the core ...
متن کاملHeuristic Methods Based on MINLP Formulation for Reliable Capacitated Facility Location Problems
This paper addresses a reliable facility location problem with considering facility capacity constraints. In reliable facility location problem some facilities may become unavailable from time to time. If a facility fails, its clients should refer to other facilities by paying the cost of retransfer to these facilities. Hence, the fail of facilities leads to disruptions in facility location dec...
