The aim of this paper is to provide insights for better modeling hub location problems to help
create a road map for future hub location research. We first present a taxonomy to provide a …

Hub location problem (HLP) is a relatively new extension of classical facility location
problems. Hubs are facilities that work as consolidation, connecting, and switching points for …

Last year was the 25th anniversary of two seminal transportation hub location publications,
which appeared in 1986 in Transportation Science and Geographical Analysis. Though …

Hubs are special facilities that serve as switching, transshipment and sorting points in many-
to-many distribution systems. The hub location problem is concerned with locating hub …

Abstract Hub Location Problems (HLPs) lie at the heart of network design planning in
transportation and telecommunication systems. They constitute a challenging class of …

Hub location problems are network design problems which are solved as part of a strategic
decision making process. In strategic planning, decisions may have a long lasting effect and …

We study stochastic uncapacitated hub location problems in which uncertainty is associated
to demands and transportation costs. We show that the stochastic problems with uncertain …

This paper describes an exact algorithm capable of solving large-scale instances of the well-
known uncapacitated hub location problem with multiple assignments. The algorithm …

In this paper we propose a 4-index formulation for the uncapacitated multiple allocation hub
location problem tailored for urban transport and liner shipping network design. This …

This paper presents the Tree of Hubs Location Problem. It is a network hub location problem
with single assignment where a fixed number of hubs have to be located, with the …
