We study the lower-bounded facility location problem, which generalizes the classical uncapacitated facility location problem in that it comes with lower bound constraints for the...
Abstract. In this paper we present a randomized constant factor approximation algorithm for the problem of computing the optimal cost of the metric Minimum Facility Location proble...

Abstract. Locating specific chunks (records) of information within documents on the web is an interesting and nontrivial problem. If the problem of locating and separating records...
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 c...
We analyze the problem of optimal location of a set of facilities in the presence of stochastic demand and congestion. Customers travel to the closest facility to obtain service; ...
