Abstract
|
|
|
|
We investigate how robust and flexible solutions of stochastic capacitated facility location problems (CFLPs) can be obtained by combining metaheuristic optimization with Monte Carlo sampling techniques. To this end, we develop a tabu search procedure for the CFLP, and use this to solve an extensive set of stochastic versions of this problem. |
