Dear fellow locater, First of all a fruitful and happy new year. You will find below my January 2025 collection: 81 references, many already stamped for 2025, some of 2024, and almost half dating from 2021 in my ongoing backward completion attempt. Hope you will find some of interest to you. Sincerely Frank Plastria Prof. Em.

Sad News (Henrik Juel)
by Anita Schoebel 05 Jan '25

05 Jan '25

Dear colleagues from location science, dear ISOLDE participants, it is with great sadness that I give you the news that two days ago, on 3rd January, Henrik Juel passed away. Many of us know Henrik from the ISOLDE conferences. Together with Tim Lowe and Gilbert Laporte he was the only one who took part in ALL of the first 11 ISOLDE conferences! After his retirement he still was active, e.g., solving Chess problems, even winning the Danish competition. His daughter informed me that he passed away at home with his family around. Henrik was a great scientist with many contributions to location science. We will always remember him as a wonderful person. Kind regards, Anita -- Prof. Dr. Anita Schöbel Institutsleiterin Fraunhofer-Institut für Techno- und Wirtschaftsmathematik ITWM Fraunhofer-Platz 1 67663 Kaiserslautern Tel: +49 (0)631 31600 1002 mail: anita.schoebel(a)itwm.fraunhofer.de

EWGLA XXIX Memories
by Serena Fugaro 17 Nov '24

17 Nov '24

Dear EWGLA Members, As you may know, EWGLA has awarded grants to four early career researchers to attend EWGLA XXIX in Sheffield: Silvia Baldassarre (University of Bergamo), Bruna Figueiredo (University of Aveiro), Eduardo Pipicelli (University of Naples Federico II) and Sophia Wrede (RWTH Aachen). As a thank you for this funding, the awardees created a video summarising the main events of the conference and capturing the atmosphere that characterises the EWGLA meetings and the British touch it had this year! We are delighted to share this video with the community: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1It1KKzu9_gSC69mJu9i0Ucmz0PpLTO59/view? usp=drive_link We hope you enjoy it and that it brings back many happy memories; also at the end of the video you will see all the conference participants saying in their languages "See you at the next EWGLA" which will be held in Jerez (17-19 September 2025). Kind regards, Diego, Hatice and Serena -- Serena Fugaro, Ph.D. Post-Doctoral Research Associate Institute for the Applications of Calculus "Mauro Picone" National Research Council of Italy Via dei Taurini, 19 00185 Roma, Italy

Witzgall's 1964 report
by Frank Plastria 05 Oct '24

05 Oct '24

Dear fellow locaters, I have been trying to find an e-copy of the well-known report Witzgall, C. [1964], Optimal location of a central facility: Mathematical models and concepts, National Bureau of Standards, Report 8388 I have only a paper copy of rather bad quality (probably something like fifth generation photocopy). I was wondering if someone had an e-copy of better quality around. After 60 years I do not think that copyright still applies. So this 'most cited unpublished location paper' might have a good place in some repository. Thanks in advance Frank Plastria Prof. Em. Frank Plastria BUTO, Vrije Universiteit Brussel frank.plastria(a)vub.be
