A biased-randomized metaheuristic for the capacitated location routing problem

The location routing problem (LRP) involves the three key decision levels in supply chain design, that is, strategic, tactical, and operational levels. It deals with the simultaneous decisions of (a) locating facilities (e.g., depots or warehouses), (b) assigning customers to facilities, and (c) def...
