A firefly algorithm for solving competitive location-design problem: a case study
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
This paper aims at determining the optimal number of new facilities besides specifying both the optimal location and design level of them under the budget constraint in a competitive environment by a novel hybrid continuous and discrete firefly algorithm. A real-world application of locating new chain stores in the city of Tehran, Iran, is used and the results are analyzed. In addition, several examples have been solved to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed model and algorithm. The results demonstrate that the performed method provides good-quality results for the test problems.

15 صفحه اولA Multi-objective Imperialist Competitive Algorithm for a Capacitated Single-allocation Hub Location Problem
In this paper, we present a novel multi-objective mathematical model for capacitated single allocation hub location problem. There are the vehicle capacity constraint and capacity restrictions amount of the incoming flow to the hub while the balancing requirements of incoming quantities of flow to the each hub is considered. Moreover, there is a set of available capacities for each potential hu...
متن کاملnew mathematical modeling for a facilities location and vehicle routing problem solving by a hybrid imperialist competitive algorithm
increasing of the distribution efficiency is one of the most objectives of an integrated logistic system developed as a new management philosophy in the past few decades. the problem is examind in two parts: facilities location problem (flp) for long policies and vehicle routing problem (vrp) to meet the customer demand. these two components can be solved separately; however, this solution may ...
متن کاملSolving a Redundancy Allocation Problem by a Hybrid Multi-objective Imperialist Competitive Algorithm
A redundancy allocation problem (RAP) is a well-known NP-hard problem that involves the selection of elements and redundancy levels to maximize the system reliability under various system-level constraints. In many practical design situations, reliability apportionment is complicated because of the presence of several conflicting objectives that cannot be combined into a single-objective functi...

In this paper, a green transportation location problem is considered with uncertain demand parameter. Increasing robustness influences the number of trucks for sending goods and products, caused consequently, increase the air pollution. In this paper, two green approaches are introduced which demand is the main uncertain parameter in both. These approaches are addressed to provide a trade-off b...
