On Conditional Covering Problem
The conditional covering problem (CCP) aims to locate facilities on a graph, where the vertex set represents both the demand points and the potential facility locations. The proble...

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...

Efficient Algorithms for Centers and Medians in Interval and Circular-Arc Graphs
The p-center problem is to locate p facilities on a network so as to minimize the largest distance from a demand point to its nearest facility. The p-median problem is to locate p ...

Minimum-cost coverage of point sets by disks
We consider a class of geometric facility location problems in which the goal is to determine a set X of disks given by their centers (tj) and radii (rj) that cover a given set of...
