Abstract

The capacitated plant location problem with linear transportation costs is considered. Exact rules and heuristics are presented for opening or closing of facilities. A heuristic algorithm based on ADD/DROP strategies is proposed. Procedures are implemented with the help of lower and upper bounds using Lagrangean relaxation. Computational results are presented and comparisons with other algorithms are made.
