The design of the distribution system is a Strategie issue for almost every Company. The Problem of locating facilities and allocating customers Covers the core topics of distribution system design. Model formulations and Solution algorithms which address the issue vary widely in terms of...

The Capacitated Facility Location Problem (CFLP) is a well-known combinatorial optimization problem with applications in distribution and production planning. A variety of lower bounds based on Lagrangean relaxation and subgradient optimization has been proposed for this problem. However, in...
