Abstract :
This paper provides a review on recent efforts and development in urban distribution centers´ location selection´s problem in two categories including uncertain environment and certain environment problems and their solution methods. Also, it provides an overview on various objectives and criteria used. While there are a few papers related to this topic, we have not seen any comprehensive review papers that can cover it. We believe this paper can be used as a complementary and updated version.
