In this study, we aimed to assess the solution quality for location-allocation problems from facilities generated by the software TransCAD®, a Geographic Information System for Transportation (GIS-T). Such facilities were obtained after using two routines together: Facility Location and Transportation Problem, when compared with optimal solutions from exact mathematical models, based on Mixed I...

The supply chain facility location problem is an important foundation in the supply chain. The quality of facilities location directly influences the production and operation status of enterprise. Therefore, it is critical for enterprises to adopt scientific and effective methods for facility location problem assessment and a smooth decision. This article concentrates on the development status ...

This paper considers a bi-objective mathematical model for locations of landfills, transfer stations and material recovery facilities (MRFs) in order to serve the entire regions and simultaneously identify the capacities of landfills. This is a mixed-integer programming (MIP) model, whose objectives are to minimize the total cost and pollution simultaneously. To validate the model, a numerical ...

Determination of facilities, such as factories or warehouses, location and availability conditions is one of the important and strategic decisions for an organization to make. Transportation costs that form a major part of goods price are dependent to this decision making. There are verity of methods have been presented to achieve the optimal locations of these facilities which are generally de...

in this paper has been used a new integrated method of fuzzy topsis and zero-one integer linear programming for location selection of bahman group company facilities and manufacturing stations of affairs. selected criteria and constraints are dividing to the explicit and implicit categories. candidate alternatives have been selected from current and useable points of company. the first criteria...
