This paper focuses on a multiperiod discrete facility location problem where transportation costs are considered together with location costs to design the operating facility pattern along a time horizon. The problem captures the difference in the scope of the location and routing decisions by...

In this work, we address the capacitated p-center problem (CpCP). We study two auxiliary problems, discuss their relation to CpCP, and analyze the lower bounds obtained with two different Lagrangean duals based on each of these auxiliary problems. We also compare two different strategies for...
