The Optimal Assignment of Facilities to Locations by Branch and Bound
نویسندگان
چکیده
The problem of the optimal assignment of facilities to locaticns has been solved by J. W. Gavett and Normann V. PlyterD• In their paper the branch and bound technique2) is used and for this purpose the distance matrix is transformed into the matrix whose diagonal compoents are zero. The purpose of this paper is to avoid such a transformation and the store of the distance matrix into the computer.

Algorithms for the generalized quadratic assignment problem combining Lagrangean decomposition and the Reformulation-Linearization Technique
In this paper, we propose two exact algorithms for the GQAP (generalized quadratic assignment problem). In this problem, given M facilities and N locations, the facility space requirements, the location available space, the facility installation costs, the flows between facilities, and the distance costs between locations, one must assign each facility to exactly one location so that each locat...

متن کاملA Honey Bee Algorithm To Solve Quadratic Assignment Problem
Assigning facilities to locations is one of the important problems, which significantly is influence in transportation cost reduction. In this study, we solve quadratic assignment problem (QAP), using a meta-heuristic algorithm with deterministic tasks and equality in facilities and location number. It should be noted that any facility must be assign to only one location. In this paper, first o...
