## Abstract We address the singleβsource uncapacitated minimum cost network flow problem with general concave cost functions. Exact methods to solve this class of problems in their full generality are only able to address small to medium size instances, since this class of problems is known to be N

## a b s t r a c t We address the problem of designing and planning a multi-period, multi-echelon, multi-commodity logistics network with deterministic demands. This consists of making strategic and tactical decisions: opening, closing or expanding facilities, selecting suppliers and defining the
## This article presents a new heuristic algorithm called DDBMA (Dynamic Delay Bounded Multicast Algorithm) to construct a minimum-cost multicast tree. The heuristic depends on (1) bounded delay along paths from source nodes to each destination node; (2) minimum cost of the multicast tree; (3) dyn
We investigate network planning and design under volatile conditions of link failures and trac overload. Our model is a non-simultaneous multi-commodity problem, with any particular two link failure being considered as one scenario. We show that the optimal solution model is not practically solvable
