| Summary: | This paper studies capacitated facility location problem by considering green management perspectives. The proposed study considers reverse logistic problem as an alternative strategy for facility location in an attempt to take care of environmental characteristics. The resulted problem is formulated as mixed integer programming and it is classified as an NP-Hard problem. Therefore, a Lagrangian relaxation methodology is presented to reduce the complexity of the proposed problem and the solution has been implemented for some instances to examine the performance of the proposed study. |
