Computing Approximate Solutions of the Maximum Covering Problem with GRASP
We consider the maximum covering problem, a combinatorial optimization problem that arises in many facility location problems. In this problem, a potential facility site covers a s...

Strategyproof Approximation of the Minimax on Networks
We consider the problem of locating a facility on a network, represented by a graph. A set of strategic agents have different ideal locations for the facility; the cost of an age...

A plant location guide for the unsure
This paper studies an extension of the k-median problem where we are given a metric space (V, d) and not just one but m client sets {Si V }m i=1, and the goal is to open k facili...
