A simulation based research on chance constrained programming in robust facility location problem

open access: yesOpen Physics, 2017
Since facility location decisions problem include long-term character and potential parameter variations, it is important to consider uncertainty in its modeling.

GIS Exploitation for New Facility Location Decisions- A Logistics Perspective [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of International Logistics and Trade, 2012
Logistical facility location decisions can make a crucial difference in the success or failure of a company. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) have recently become a very popular decision support system to help deal with facility location problems ...

A Super-Fast Distributed Algorithm for Bipartite Metric Facility Location [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The \textit{facility location} problem consists of a set of \textit{facilities} $\mathcal{F}$, a set of \textit{clients} $\mathcal{C}$, an \textit{opening cost} $f_i$ associated with each facility $x_i$, and a \textit{connection cost} $D(x_i,y_j ...

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

On a class of intersection graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Given a directed graph D = (V,A) we define its intersection graph I(D) = (A,E) to be the graph having A as a node-set and two nodes of I(D) are adjacent if their corresponding arcs share a common node that is the tail of at least one of these arcs.

An optimal algorithm for the weighted backup 2-center problem on a tree [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we are concerned with the weighted backup 2-center problem on a tree. The backup 2-center problem is a kind of center facility location problem, in which one is asked to deploy two facilities, with a given probability to fail, in a network.

Robust Fault Tolerant uncapacitated facility location [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the uncapacitated facility location problem, given a graph, a set of demands and opening costs, it is required to find a set of facilities R, so as to minimize the sum of the cost of opening the facilities in R and the cost of assigning all node ...

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...
