Abstract

In this paper, a latency location routing problem with stochastic travel times is investigated. The problem is modeled as a two-stage stochastic program, by setting the location decisions at the first stage, and the routing decisions at the second one. A risk-averse decision-maker is assumed. An efficient and effective multi-start variable neighborhood search algorithm is proposed for tackling the problem. A sampling method is also presented for dealing with uncertainty captured by a continuous probability distribution. Several insights are provided based on the results of a series of computational tests performed to asses the methodological contributions provided by this work.
