We consider the problem of designing a transportation network to allow the residents of the network to avail service provided by a single facility whose location is predetermined....

We present a simple randomized algorithmic framework for connected facility location problems. The basic idea is as follows: We run a black-box approximation algorithm for the unc...

We propose fast heuristics for large-scale covering-location problems in which the set of demand points is discrete and the set of potential location sites is continuous. These he...
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...
