Facility location problems form an important class of integer programming problems, with application in the distribution and transportation industries. In this paper we are concerned with a particular type of facility location problem in which there exist two echelons of facilities. Each facility in

Facility location problems are often encountered in many areas such as distribution, transportation and telecommunication. We describe a new solution approach for the capacitated facility location problem in which each customer is served by a single facility. An important class of heuristic solution
In this paper, a finite set in which an optimal solution for a general Euclidean problem of locating an undesirable facility in a polygonal region, is determined and can be found in polynomial time. The general problem we propose leads us, among others, to several well-known problems such as the max
