A Heuristic Lagrangean Algorithm for the Capacitated Plant Location Problem

Article Abstract:

The application of Lagrangean techniques to capacitated plant location problems having extra constraints is considered where the model is of a pure integer type. Various Lagrangean decompositions are assessed, and certain heuristic algorithms are designed to address resulting subproblems. This becomes a two-phase heuristic procedure; the location phase defines the group of multipliers, and the second phase can be treated with decomposition, or knapsack type subproblems. Extensive computations are featured. A flowchart is included which summarizes the algorithm. Twenty problems are given for various plant location chances in light of costs and capacities. Other cases illustrated heuristic behavior in the number of iterations in an interchange heuristic.
