The Capacitated Multi-Period Location-Allocation Problem.
Abstract
The problem is that of locating capacitated plants at some of a number of potential locations, so as to minimize the discounted sum of fixed costs incurred for open plants and variable supply costs. Both the costs and demands may vary arbitrarily over time. The results of optimal LIFO branch-and-bound and of heuristic algorithms using various branching variable selection rules and some new bounds are presented. (Author)
