Abstract:

In particular, the dynamic facility location is a system that promotes vibrant arrangement to be designed for single or multiple facilities. The present work deals with optimal location facilities for a given set of service points based on demand. The system depends on several parameters like the distance between facility locations, the cost of transportation, and the quantity of supply. The fuzzy and graph theory-based algorithm is used to find the demand with the optimal location of the facility in the dynamic facility location system, to minimize the distance of transportation and which in turn lowers the transportation cost. A numerical illustration is used to demonstrate the implementation of a fuzzy approach to determine the optimal location of the facility, and a case study is used for the implementation of the Graph theory.

Keywords:
