(2010). A computational comparison of several formulations for the multi-period incremental service facility location problem. Top, 18 (1)1134-5764https://hdl.handle.net/11441/83314The Multi-period Incremental Service Facility Location Problem, which was recently introduced, is a strategic problem for timing the location of facilities and the assignment of customers to facilities in a multi-period environment. Aiming at finding the strongest formulation for this problem, in this work we study three alternative formulations based on the so-called impulse variables and step variables. To this end, an extensive computational comparison is performed. As a conclusion, the hybrid impulse–step formulation provides better computational results than any of the other two formulations.application/pdfspaAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Multi-period location-assignmentPure 0–1 formulationsImpulse variablesStep variablesA computational comparison of several formulations for the multi-period incremental service facility location probleminfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
