摘要
In this paper, we introduce a squared metric k-facility location problem (SM-k-FLP) which is a generalization of the squared metric facility location problem and k-facility location problem (k-FLP). In the SM-k-FLP, we are given a client set and a facility set from a metric space, a facility opening cost for each , and an integer k. The goal is to open a facility subset with and to connect each client to the nearest open facility such that the total cost (including facility opening cost and the sum of squares of distances) is minimized. Using local search and scaling techniques, we offer a constant approximation algorithm for the SM-k-FLP.
