Solving a leader–follower facility problem via parallel evolutionary approaches

A leader–follower facility problem is considered in this paper. The objective is to maximize the profit obtained by a chain (the leader) knowing that a competitor (the follower) will react by locating another single facility after the leader locates its own facility.

Popis
Shrnutí:A leader–follower facility problem is considered in this paper. The objective is to maximize the profit obtained by a chain (the leader) knowing that a competitor (the follower) will react by locating another single facility after the leader locates its own facility. A subpopulation-based evolutionary algorithm called TLUEGO was recently proposed to cope with this hard-to-solve global optimization problem. However, it requires high computational effort, even to manage small-size problems. In this work, three parallelizations of TLUEGO are proposed, a distributed memory programming algorithm, a shared memory programming algorithm, and a hybrid of the two previous algorithms, which not only allow us to obtain the solution faster, but also to solve larger instances.
