Location of hubs in a competitive environment [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Operational Research, 1999
We offer a formulation that locates hubs on a network in a competitive environment; that is, customer capture is sought, which happens whenever the location of a new hub results in a reduction of the current cost (time, distance) needed by the traffic that goes from the specified origin to the specified destination.

Competitive Facility Location Under Attrition

open access: yesComputational Management Science, 2023
Abstract In this paper we address the possibility that in a competitive facility location model, one of the existing competing facilities will go out of business. We find the best location for a new facility protecting against such a possibility. Four commonly used decision rules (optimistic, pessimistic, minimax regret, and expected value) are
