Star p-hub median problem with modular arc capacities

چکیده

We consider the hub location problem, where p hubs are chosen from a given set of nodes, each nonhub node is connected to exactly one hub and each hub is connected to a central hub. Links are installed on the arcs of the resulting network to route the traffic. The aim is to find the hub locations and the connections to minimize the link installation cost. We propose two formulations and a heuristic algorithm to solve this problem. The heuristic is based on Lagrangian relaxation and local search. We present computational results where formulations are compared and the quality of the heuristic solutions are tested.

Joint Optimization of Star P-hub Median Problem and Seat Inventory Control Decisions Considering a Hybrid Routing Transportation System

In this paper, we study the problem of integrated capacitated hub location problem and seat inventory control considering concept and techniques of revenue management. We consider an airline company maximizes its revenue by utilizing the best network topology and providing proper booking limits for all itineraries and fare classes. The transportation system arises in the form of a star/star net...

Two-stage stochastic programming model for capacitated complete star p-hub network with different fare classes of customers

In this paper, a stochastic programming approach is applied to the airline network revenue management problem. The airline network with the arc capacitated single hub location problem based on complete–star p-hub network is considered. We try to maximize the profit of the transportation company by choosing the best hub locations and network topology, applying revenue management techniques to al...

Star p-hub center problem and star p-hub median problem with bounded path lengths

We consider two problems that arise in designing two-level star networks taking into account service quality considerations. Given a set of nodes with pairwise traffic demand and a central hub, we select p hubs and connect them to the central hub with direct links and then we connect each nonhub node to a hub. This results in a star/star network. In the first problem, called the Star p-hub Cent...

A Multi-Level Capacity Approach to the Hub and Spoke Network

The existing works considering the flow-based discount factor in the hub and spoke problems, assume that increasing the amount of flow passing through each edge of network continuously decreases the unit flow transportation cost. Although a higher volume of flow allows for using wider links and consequently cheaper transportation, but the unit of flow enjoys more discounts, quite like replacing...

مساله پوشش هاب تک تخصیصی بر روی شبکه ستاره‌ای؛ مدل‌بندی، خطی‌سازی و یافتن کران مناسب برای آن‌

The present study evaluates two problems of single allocation hub-covering problem with star structure including two problems of maximal p-hub covering and hub covering by considering the flow transfer costs. The star structure is as there is a central hub with definite location and other hubs are connected directly to the central hub. In the first problem, the goal is selection of p-hub locati...
