Summary
In this paper we present the first heuristics for discrete budget facility location{network design with minisum objective. Simple greedy heuristics, a custom heuristic that separates the problems of facility location and network design, a basic local search, and simulated annealing heuristics using two different kinds of neighborhoods are developed. The results of each heuristic are compared with known optimal solutions to a series of test problems
