Facility location problem is to find locations for new facilities such that the conveying cost from facilities to customers is minimized. Facility location problem has been studied for half a century because of its widely practical application backgrounds.
In practice, some factors such as demands, allocations, even locations of customers and facilities are usually changing. In an uncapacitated facility location problem, the customers are supplied by the nearest factory. However, in a capacitated problem, the customers may not be supplied by the nearest factory only. In order to solve this type of problem, this chapter introduces some optimization models for uncertain capacitated facility location problem.
