Facility layout design with random demand and capacitated machines
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the facility layout problem with machine capacities (and hence multiple machines of each type) and random demand. We develop a very efficient heuristic allowing us to find good solutions to the stochastic case whenever good solutions can be found for the corresponding deterministic problem with uncapacitated machines of the same dimension. Hence, this problem represents a case where a specific deterministic model, even when solved heuristically, produces a very good solution to a stochastic model.

A fuzzy capacitated facility location-network design model: A hybrid firefly and invasive weed optimization (FIWO) solution
Facility location-network design (FLND) problem, which determines the location of facilities and also communication links between the demand and facility nodes, is arisen from the combination of the facility location and network design problems. This paper deals with fuzzy capacitated facility location-network design model which aims to select the facilities and candidate links in a way that yi...
متن کاملA hybrid CS-SA intelligent approach to solve uncertain dynamic facility layout problems considering dependency of demands
This paper aims at proposing a quadratic assignment-based mathematical model to deal with the stochastic dynamic facility layout problem. In this problem, product demands are assumed to be dependent normally distributed random variables with known probability density function and covariance that change from period to period at random. To solve the proposed model, a novel hybrid intelligent algo...
متن کاملA Nonlinear Model for a Capacitated Location-allocation Problem with Bernoulli Demand using Sub-sources
This study presents a capacitated multi-facility location-allocation problem with stochastic demands based on a well-known distribution function. In this discrete environment, besides the capacitated facilities, we can employee the capacitated sub-source of each facility for satisfying demands of customers. The objective function is to find the optimal locations of facilities among a finite num...
متن کاملAn Efficient Hybrid Metaheuristic for Capacitated p-Median Problem
Capacitated p-median problem (CPMP) is a well-known facility-location problem, in which p capacitated facility points are selected to satisfy n demand points in such a way that the total assigned demand to each facility does not exceed its capacity. Minimizing the total sum of distances between each demand point and its nearest facility point is the objective of the problem. Developing an effic...
متن کاملCapacitated Facility Location Problem with Variable Coverage Radius in Distribution System
The problem of locating distribution centers (DCs) is one of the most important issues in design of supply chain. In previous researches on this problem, each DC could supply products for all of the customers. But in many real word problems, DCs can only supply products for customers who are in a certain distance from the facility, coverage radius. Thus, in this paper a multi-objective intege...
