Abstract
A Hub Location Problem (HLP) deals with finding the
locations of hub facilities and assignment of demand nodes to
established facilities. Hubs play a central role in many networks
such as telecommunication networks and their unavailability may
lead to network breakdown or poor service levels. An objective in
design of a hub-and-spoke network is maximization of reliability
to transfer flows. This paper puts forward design of a reliable
single-allocation hub-and-spoke network using an interactive
fuzzy goal programming. To model and solve the problem, a fuzzy
goal programming approach was developed for design of network
in an interactive manner between decision maker and the model.
To validate the model and the proposed solution approach, a test
problem is presented and comparison of results is made using this
problem.
