In k­median problem the elements for the set F can be any k<br />

sites in R d in the unrestricted case. Sometimes we restrict the<br />

k­median problem such that F ⊆ S, i.e., input point sites. Both<br />

of these problems are NP­Hard. [Meggido & Supowit]<br />

So our goal should be the design of efficient approximation<br />

algorithms for these problems. Here we will restrict our attention<br />

to the restricted version of the problem.<br />

Restricted version of our facility location can still be classified<br />

into two subcategories:<br />

(a) Uncapacitated k­median problem<br />

(b) Capacitated k­median problem
