Since in many real-world facility location problems, the data are subject to uncertainty, in this paper, we consider the P-center problem under uncertainty of demands. Using Bertsimas and Sim approach, we develop a robust model of the problem as an integer programming model. Furthermore, we develop a tabu search algorithm for solving the problem. Finally we use design of experiments (DOE) to adjust the parameters of tabu search algorithm. The numerical results of algorithm are presented accordingly.}, keywords = {Facility location,robust optimization,P-Center,Tabu Search}, url = {https://www.jise.ir/article_4049.html}, eprint = {https://www.jise.ir/article_4049_997bf3e8a07d72c6bea82c567c98dd12.pdf} }
