鲁棒动态设施选址问题的近似算法

设施选址问题是组合优化中重要问题之一。动态设施选址问题是传统设施选址问题的推广,其中度量空间中设施的开设费用和顾客的需求均随着时间的变化而变化。更多地,经典设施选址问题假设所有的顾客都需要被服务。在这个模型假设下,所有的顾客都需要服务。但事实上,有时为服务距离较远的顾客,需要单独开设设施,导致了资源的浪费。因此,在模型设置中,可以允许一些固定数目的顾客不被服务 (带异常点的设施选址问题),此外也可以通过支付一些顾客的惩罚费用以达到不服务的目的 (带惩罚的设施选址问题)。本文将综合以上两种鲁棒设置考虑同时带有异常点和惩罚的动态设施选址问题,通过原始-对偶框架得到近似比为3的近似算法。

带次模惩罚和随机需求的设施选址问题

考虑带次模惩罚和随机需求的设施选址问题,目的是开设设施集合的一个子集,把客户连接到开设的设施上并对没有连接的客户进行惩罚,使得开设费用、连接费用、库存费用、管理费用和惩罚费用之和达到最小. 根据该问题的特殊结构,给出原始对偶3-近似算法. 在算法的第一步,构造了一组对偶可行解;在第二步中构造了对应的一组原始整数可行解,这组原始整数可行解给出了最后开设的设施集合和被惩罚的客户集合. 最后,证明了算法在多项式时间内可以完成,并且算法所给的整数解不会超过最优解的3倍.     

需求导向的容量设施竞争选址问题研究

客户意愿与容量限制是竞争设施选址问题中两个重要的影响因素,在考虑客户意愿与设施容量共同作用条件下,建立了最小化企业总成本以及每个客户费用为目标的竞争设施选址问题优化模型,通过设计需求导向服务分配机制解决设施与客户之间服务关系分配问题,结合模拟退火思想提出了求解模型的算法。最后利用数值例子分析了需求导向服务分配机制以及目标权重、预算限额等参数对于选址决策的影响,其中考虑需求导向因素会适当增加企业的总成本,但可以减少客户所付出的费用从而增强对客户的吸引力;另外企业的预算限额对于企业的设施选址决策有着重要的影响,企业所能获取的市场份额与其选址预算限额呈正相关的关系;而客户所需付出的总费用与企业提供服务的总成本两者之间则呈负相关的关系,因此需要通过服务质量与成本之间的权衡实现最理想的选址决策。

IP modeling of the survivable hop constrained connected facility location problem

We consider a generalized version of the rooted connected facility location problem which occurs in planning of telecommunication networks with both survivability and hop-length constraints. Given a set of client nodes, a set of potential facility nodes including one predetermined root facility, a set of optional Steiner nodes, and the set of the potential connections among these nodes, that task is to decide which facilities to open, how to assign the clients to the open facilities, and how to interconnect the open facilities in such a way, that the resulting network contains at least λ edge-disjoint paths, each containing at most H edges, between the root and each open facility and that the total cost for opening facilities and installing connections is minimal. We study two IP models for this problem and present a branch-and-cut algorithm based on Benders decomposition for finding its solution. Finally, we report computational results.     

Local search algorithm for universal facility location problem with linear penalties

The universal facility location problem generalizes several classical facility location problems, such as the uncapacitated facility location problem and the capacitated location problem (both hard and soft capacities). In the universal facility location problem, we are given a set of demand points and a set of facilities. We wish to assign the demands to facilities such that the total service as well as facility cost is minimized. The service cost is proportional to the distance that each unit of the demand has to travel to its assigned facility. The open cost of facility i depends on the amount z of demand assigned to i and is given by a cost function \(f_i(z)\). In this work, we extend the universal facility location problem to include linear penalties, where we pay certain penalty cost whenever we refuse serving some demand points. As our main contribution, we present a (\(7.88+\epsilon \))-approximation local search algorithm for this problem.

Approximating connected facility location with buy-at-bulk edge costs via random sampling

In the connected facility location problem with buy-at-bulk edge costs we are given a set of clients with positive demands and a set of potential facilities with opening costs in an undirected graph with edge lengths obeying the triangle inequality. Moreover, we are given a set of access cable types, each with a cost per unit length and a capacity such that the cost per capacity decreases from small to large cables, and a core cable type of infinite capacity. The task is to open some facilities and to connect them by a Steiner tree using core cables, and to build a forest network using access cables such that the edge capacities suffice to simultaneously route all client demands unsplit to the open facilities. The objective is to minimize the total cost of opening facilities, building the core Steiner tree, and installing the access cables. In this paper, we devise a constant-factor approximation algorithm for this problem based on a random sampling technique.     

The plant location problem with demand-dependent setup costs and centralized allocation

Suppose that customers are situated at the nodes of a transportation network, and a service company plans to locate a number of facilities that will serve the customers. The objective is to minimize the sum of the total setup cost and the total transportation cost. The setup cost of a facility is demand-dependent, that is, it depends on the number of customers that are served by the facility. Centralized allocation of customers to facilities is assumed, that is, the service company makes a decision about allocation of customers to facilities. In the case of a general network, the model can be formulated as a mixed integer programming problem. For the case of a tree network, we develop a polynomial-time dynamic programming algorithm.
