Reliable Facility Location Problem with Facility Protection. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
This paper studies a reliable facility location problem with facility protection that aims to hedge against random facility disruptions by both strategically protecting some facilities and using backup facilities for the demands.

Continuous facility location on graphs. [PDF]

open access: yesMath Program, 2022
AbstractWe study a continuous facility location problem on undirected graphs where all edges have unit length and where the facilities may be positioned on the vertices as well as on interior points of the edges. The goal is to cover the entire graph with a minimum number of facilities with covering range $$\delta >0$$

Improved starting solutions for the planar p-median problem [PDF]

open access: yesYugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2021
In this paper we present two new approaches for finding good starting solutions to the planar p-median problem. Both methods rely on a discrete approximation of the continuous model that restricts the facility locations to the given set of demand points.

The inverse minisum circle location problem [PDF]

open access: yesYugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2022
Let n weighted points be given in the plane. The inverse version of the minisum circle location problem deals with modifying the weights of points with minimum cost, such that the sum of the weighted distances from the circumference of a given circle C ...

Globally Optimal Facility Locations for Continuous-Space Facility Location Problems

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The continuous-space single- and multi-facility location problem has attracted much attention in previous studies. This study focuses on determining the globally optimal facility locations for two- and higher-dimensional continuous-space facility ...

Inverse minimax circle location problem with variable coordinates [PDF]

open access: yesAUT Journal of Mathematics and Computing, 2022
Traditionally, the minimax circle location problems concern finding a circle $C$ in the plane such that the maximum distance from the given points to the circumference of the circle is minimized. The radius of the circle can be fixed or variable. In this
