The Uncapacitated Facility Location (UFL) problem is one of the most fundamental clustering problems: Given a set of clients $C$ and a set of facilities $F$ in a metric space $(C \cup F, dist)$ with facility costs $open : F \to…
The Fault-Tolerant Facility Placement problem (FTFP) is a generalization of the classic Uncapacitated Facility Location Problem (UFL). In FTFP we are given a set of facility sites and a set of clients. Opening a facility at site $i$ costs…
We consider the {\em lower-bounded facility location} (\lbfl) problem (also sometimes called {\em load-balanced facility location}), which is a generalization of {\em uncapacitated facility location} (\ufl), where each open facility is…
We consider the Fault-Tolerant Facility Placement problem ($FTFP$), which is a generalization of the classical Uncapacitated Facility Location problem ($UFL$). In the $FTFP$ problem we have a set of clients $C$ and a set of facilities $F$.…
We studied the Fault-Tolerant Facility Placement problem (FTFP) which generalizes the uncapacitated facility location problem (UFL). In FTFP, we are given a set F of sites at which facilities can be built, and a set C of clients with some…
In the uncapacitated facility location problem, given a graph, a set of demands and opening costs, it is required to find a set of facilities R, so as to minimize the sum of the cost of opening the facilities in R and the cost of assigning…
In the Submodular Facility Location problem (SFL) we are given a collection of $n$ clients and $m$ facilities in a metric space. A feasible solution consists of an assignment of each client to some facility. For each client, one has to pay…
We study Facility Location with Matching, a Facility Location problem where, given additional information about which pair of clients is compatible to be matched, we need to match as many clients as possible and assign each matched client…
We study a variant of the uncapacitated facility location problem (UFL), where connection costs of clients are defined by (client specific) concave nondecreasing functions of the connection distance in the underlying metric. A special case…
The soft capacitated facility location problem (SCFLP) is a classic combinatorial optimization problem, with its variants widely applied in the fields of operations research and computer science. In the SCFLP, given a set $\mathcal{F}$ of…
The $k$-Facility Location problem is a generalization of the classical problems $k$-Median and Facility Location. The goal is to select a subset of at most $k$ facilities that minimizes the total cost of opened facilities and established…
We study the capacitated $k$-facility location problem, in which we are given a set of clients with demands, a set of facilities with capacities and a constant number $k$. It costs $f_i$ to open facility $i$, and $c_{ij}$ for facility $i$…
We consider the classic Facility Location problem on planar graphs (non-uniform, uncapacitated). Given an edge-weighted planar graph $G$, a set of clients $C\subseteq V(G)$, a set of facilities $F\subseteq V(G)$, and opening costs…
In this work, we study the extension of two variants of the facility location problem (FL) to make them robust towards a few distantly located clients. First, $k$-facility location problem ($k$FL), a common generalization of FL and $k$…
We introduce an online variant of mobile facility location (MFL) (introduced by Demaine et al. [SODA' 07]). We call this new problem online mobile facility location (OMFL). In the OMFL problem, initially, we are given a set of $k$ mobile…
In the capacitated $k$-median (\CKM) problem, we are given a set $F$ of facilities, each facility $i \in F$ with a capacity $u_i$, a set $C$ of clients, a metric $d$ over $F \cup C$ and an integer $k$. The goal is to open $k$ facilities in…
We study the extended version of the non-uniform, capacitated facility location problem with multiple fulfilment channels between the facilities and clients, each with their own channel capacities and service cost. Though the problem has…
We consider the {\em mobile facility location} (\mfl) problem. We are given a set of facilities and clients located in a common metric space. The goal is to move each facility from its initial location to a destination and assign each…
In the Constrained Fault-Tolerant Resource Allocation (FTRA) problem, we are given a set of sites containing facilities as resources, and a set of clients accessing these resources. Specifically, each site i is allowed to open at most R_i…
Linear programming has played a key role in the study of algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems. In the field of approximation algorithms, this is well illustrated by the uncapacitated facility location problem. A variety of…
