Abstract

In this paper a well-known formulation for the capacitated single-allocation hub location problem is revisited. An example is presented showing that for some instances this formulation is incomplete. The reasons for the incompleteness are identified leading to the inclusion of an additional set of constraints. Computational experiments are performed showing that the new constraints also help to decrease the computational time required to solve the problem optimally.
