A HYBRID ALGORITHM TO SOLVE THE FIXED CHARGE SOLID LOCATION AND TRANSPORTATION PROBLEM [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a Hybrid Algorithm (HA) to solve the Fixed Charge Solid Location and Transportation problem (FCSLTP). The FCSLTP considers the cost of facility location and route fixed costs during transportation planning or load consolidation.

Competitive Facility Location along a Highway [PDF]
We consider a competitive facility location problem with two players.Pla yers alternate placing points, one at a time, into the playing arena, until each of them has placed n points.The arena is then subdivided according to the nearest-neighbor rule, and the player whose points control the larger area wins.W e present a winning strategy for the second ...

Scalable Facility Location for Massive Graphs on Pregel-like Systems [PDF]
We propose a new scalable algorithm for facility location. Facility location is a classic problem, where the goal is to select a subset of facilities to open, from a set of candidate facilities F , in order to serve a set of clients C.
