Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
. Integration of location decisions into facility location models
(e.g. procurement, production, transportation, inventory, etc).
. Solution approaches for (re)designing a logistics network.
* Case studies from industry involving facility location and logistics
network design.
The deadline for abstract submission is April 30, 2013 (max. 1800

The International Workshop on Locational Analysis and Related Problems - X Anniversary of the Spanish Location Network will take place during June 19-21, 2013 in Torremolinos, province of Málaga (Spain). It is organized by the Spanish Location Network, which is a group of more than 140 researchers distributed into 16 nodes corresponding to several Spanish universities. Every year, the Network organizes a meeting to promote the communication between its members and between them and other researchers, and to contribute to the development of the location field and related problems. The last workshop took place in Granada, May 10-12, 2012 (http://www.webs.ulpgc.es/locafin <http://www.webs.ulpgc.es/locafin> ). This year, the Network combines the organization of the annual Workshop with the celebration of its 10th anniversary, extending the call for papers to the scientific community.
The topics of interest are location analysis and related problems. It includes location models, networks, transportation, logistics, exact and heuristic solution methods, and computational geometry, among others.
Researchers and practitioners are invited to present works in the form of oral communications or poster.
