Minmax regret 1-facility location on uncertain path networks

H Wang - European Journal of Operational Research, 2014 - Elsevier
Let P be an undirected path graph of n vertices. Each edge of P has a positive length and a
constant capacity. Every vertex has a nonnegative supply, which is an unknown value but is …

[HTML][HTML] Improved algorithms for computing minmax regret sinks on dynamic path and tree networks

B Bhattacharya, T Kameda - Theoretical Computer Science, 2015 - Elsevier
Suppose that in an emergency, such as an earthquake or fire, a number of people need to
be evacuated to a safe “sink” from every vertex of a network. The k-sink problem seeks to …

Minsum k-Sink Problem on Dynamic Flow Path Networks

R Benkoczi, B Bhattacharya, Y Higashikawa… - International Workshop …, 2018 - Springer
In emergencies such as earthquakes, nuclear accidents, etc., we need an evacuation plan.
We model a street, a building corridor, etc. by a path network, and consider the problem of …

Minmax Regret k-Sink Location on a Dynamic Path Network with Uniform Capacities

GP Arumugam, J Augustine, MJ Golin, P Srikanthan - Algorithmica, 2019 - Springer
In Dynamic flow networks an edge's capacity is the amount of flow (items) that can enter it in
unit time. All flow must be moved to sinks and congestion occurs if flow has to wait at a …
