Hierarchical Facility Location and Hub Network Problems: A literature review
In this paper, a complete review of published researches about hierarchical facility location and hub network problems is presented. Hierarchical network is a system where facilities with different service levels interact in a top-down way or vice versa. In Hierarchical systems, service levels are composed of different facilities. Published papers from (1970) to (2015) have been studied and a c...
متن کاملModeling health care facility location for moving population groups
Locating public services for nomadic population groups is a difficult challenge as the locations of the targeted populations seasonally change. In this paper, the population groups are assumed to occupy different locations according to the time of the year, i.e., winter and summer. A binary integer programming model is formulated to determine the optimal number and locations of primary health u...
متن کاملAn Integrated Approach for Reliable Facility Location/Network Design Problem with Link Disruption
Proposing a robust designed facility location is one of the most effective ways to hedge against unexpected disruptions and failures in a transportation network system. This paper considers the combined facility location/network design problem with regard to transportation link disruptions and develops a mixed integer linear programming formulation to model it. With respect to the probability o...
متن کاملManaging health care facility associated pneumonias: diagnosis, treatment and prevention.
Pneumonias acquired in a healthcare facility have different epidemiology, risk factors, responsible pathogens, treatments and outcomes than those acquired in the community. Patients with such infections generally have greater mortality and incur greater medical costs. Initially, hospitals were regarded as the major site for this paradigm; more recently, long term care facilities, rehabilitation...
متن کاملApproximation Algorithms for Problems Combining Facility Location and Network Design
We present approximation algorithms for integrated logistics problems that combine elements of facility location and transport network design. We first study the problem where opening facilities incurs opening costs and transportation from the clients to the facilities incurs buy-at-bulk costs, and provide a combinatorial approximation algorithm. We also show that the integer programming formul...
