In this paper, we study the uncapacitated facility location problem with service installation costs depending on the type of service required. We propose a polynomial-time approximation algorithm with approximation ratio 1.808 which improves the previous approximation ratio of 2.391 of Shmoys, Swamy

We propose a 2-approximation algorithm for a facility location problem with stochastic demands. At open facilities, inventory is kept such that arriving requests find a zero inventory with (at most) some pre-specified probability. Costs incurred are expected transportation costs, facility operating
