The main objective of facilities location and service system design is covering of potential customers’ demand. Many location models are extended with the covering objective and considered constraints, details of problem and its different aspects. In this paper the maximal covering location-allocation model for congested system is extended in the competitive environment. In the proposed model, ...

Here, we investigate the classical p-median location problem on a network in which the vertex weights and the distances between vertices are uncertain. We propose a programming model for the uncertain p-median location problem with tail value at risk objective. Then, we show that it is NP-hard. Therefore, a novel hybrid modified binary particle swarm optimization algorithm is presented to obtai...
