The hub location–allocation problem under uncertainty is a real-world task arising in the areas such as public and freight transportation and telecommunication systems. In many applications, the demand is considered as inexact because of the forecasting inaccuracies or human’s unpredictability. This study addresses the robust uncapacitated multiple allocation hub location problem with a set of ...

hub covering location problem, network design,   single machine scheduling, genetic algorithm,   shuffled frog leaping algorithm   hub location problems (hlp) are synthetic optimization problems that appears in telecommunication and transportation networks where nodes send and receive commodities (i.e., data transmissions, passengers transportation, express packages, postal deliveries, etc.) th...

the aim of this research is to prioritize the key factors for implementation of idea virtual bank (ivb) in telecommunication industry. the current applied and descriptive research was conducted based on a survey. the population of this research consisted of all users of ivb and idea submitters to suggestion system of telecommunication industry in province of razavi-khorasan that 70 of them were...

Speed as a crucial phenomenon of modernism affects individual and collective life of human being and changes the traits of the places people live in. Increasing speed is the demand of the modern era, though on the other side in recent years there is a contrary incline towards slowing down different aspects of life. In view of this, the dualities in between social features of Speed up and slow d...

Hubs are facilities to collect arrange and distribute commodities in telecommunication networks, cargo delivery systems, etc. In this paper, an uncapacitated phub center problem in case of single allocation and also multiple allocation will be introduced in which travel times or transportation costs are considered as fuzzy parameters. Then, by proposing new methods, the presented problem is con...

Traditional traffic control and transportation management systems mainly focus on the relief of congestions and the enhancement of traffic safety. It is proven however that, the transportation sector is one of the main sources with significant impacts on the environment, the entire climate, the public health, and the entire ecological system [1-4], which is also an increasing general public con...
