Facility Location with Client Latencies: Linear Programming Based Techniques for Minimum Latency Problems

We introduce a problem that is a common generalization of the uncapacitated facility location and minimum latency (ML) problems, where facilities need to be opened to serve clients and also need to be sequentially activated before they can provide service. Formally, we are given a set F of n facilities with facility-opening costs fi, a set D of m clients, connection costs cij specifying the cos...

Inverse and Reverse 2-facility Location Problems with Equality Measures on a Network

In this paper we consider the inverse and reverse network facility location problems with considering the equity on servers. The inverse facility location with equality measure deals with modifying the weights of vertices with minimum cost, such that the difference between the maximum and minimum weights of clients allocated to the given facilities is minimized. On the other hand, the reverse c...

LP-based Approximation Algorithms for Capacitated Facility Location

There has been a great deal of recent work on approximation algorithms for facility location problems [9]. We consider the capacitated facility location problem with hard capacities. We are given a set of facilities, F , and a set of clients D in a common metric space. Each facility i has a facility opening cost fi and capacity ui that specifies the maximum number of clients that may be assigne...

Linear-Programming based Approximation Algorithms for Multi-Vehicle Minimum Latency Problems

We consider various multi-vehicle versions of the minimum latency problem. There is a fleet of kvehicles located at one or more depot nodes, and we seek a collection of routes for these vehicles thatvisit all nodes so as to minimize the total latency incurred, which is the sum of the client waiting times.We obtain an 8.497-approximation for the version where vehicles may be located ...

Approximation Algorithms for Minimum-Load k-Facility Location

We consider a facility-location problem that abstracts settings where the cost of serving the clients assigned to a facility is incurred by the facility. Formally, we consider the minimum-load k-facility location (MLkFL) problem, which is defined as follows. We have a set F of facilities, a set C of clients, and an integer k ≥ 0. Assigning client j to a facility f incurs a connection cost d(f, ...
