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.

Evaluation of Heuristics for the P-Median Problem: Scale and Spatial Demand Distribution [PDF]

open access: yesComput Environ Urban Syst, 2021
The objective of the p-median problem is to identify p source locations and map them to n destinations while minimizing the average distance between destinations and corresponding sources.

The obnoxious facilities planar p-median problem [PDF]

open access: yesOR Spectrum, 2020
In this paper, we propose the planar obnoxious facilities p-median problem. In the p-median problem the objective is to find p locations for facilities that minimize the weighted sum of distances between communities and their closest facility.

Alternative formulations for the obnoxious p-median problem

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2021
The problem of locating obnoxious facilities has gained attention, as do environmental issues. Particularly, in view of the impacts of facilities on their clients, Labbe et al.

The dynamic p-median problem with mobile facilities

open access: yesComputers & Industrial Engineering, 2019
Being motivated by real life applications in construction management, we consider the dynamic p -median problem and its extension with mobile facilities. The number of facilities changes over a planning horizon where one or more facilities can be opened,

The most probable allocation solution for the p-median problem [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Numerical Analysis and Optimization, 2020
The most important purpose in location problems is usually to locate some facilities and allocate the demands of nodes so that the total transportation cost of the network is minimized. However, in real networks, there are some other influencing factors,

Large neighborhood local search for the p-median problem [PDF]

open access: yesYugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2005
In this paper we consider the well known p-median problem. We introduce a new large neighborhood based on ideas of S.Lin and B.W. Kernighan for the graph partition problem. We study the behavior of the local improvement and Ant Colony algorithms with new
