Abstract
In this paper a new evolutionary based approach for solving the uncapacitated multiple allocation p-hub median problem is presented. Integer encoding of individuals is used, which provided the feasibility of individuals and enabled the usage of standard genetic operators. The experiments were carried out on the standard ORLIB AP data set. The proposed algorithm achieved three new best known solutions.
