Call for abstract submission: TSL 2024 workshop, Nantes (France) 25-27 september 2024
by Olivier Péton 26 Jan '24

26 Jan '24

The LS2N Laboratory, IMT Atlantique and CRC Services, with the support of the National Research Agency (ANR), are pleased to announce the call for the *12th INFORMS Transportation Science and Logistics Society Workshop (TSL 2024). * The workshop will be held in Nantes, France, from *September 25 to 27*. The main theme of the workshop is: *Optimizing Transportation and Logistics under Uncertainty * In the ever evolving world of transportation and logistics, there is a growing need to optimize operations under uncertainty. Decision makers are faced with variable transit times, volatile demand volumes, and fluctuating resource availability. This increases their need for algorithms that can deal with uncertainty. We invite submissions that enrich the scientific literature on optimizing transportation and logistics systems in uncertain environments. This includes, but is not limited to contributions in the following areas: - stochastic optimization, - robust optimization, - simulation-based optimization - dynamic models, - time-dependent models, - data-driven optimization, - uncertainty modeling. INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTRIBUTORS Researchers interested in giving a presentation are invited to submit an abstract of no more than two pages. https://tsl2024.sciencesconf.org/ Acceptance of an abstract will be based on both the quality of the research and its appropriateness to the theme of the workshop. Please note that the TSL Workshop will be preceded by a *Doctoral School *on the same topic. We will offer a special registration rate for junior researchers who attend both events. REGISTRATION: The registration will open in February. IMPORTANT DATES: Abstract submission deadline: /March, 31, 2024 /Notification of acceptance:/ May, 31, 2024 /Early bird registration: / July 11, 2024 /Doctoral school : / September 22-24, 2024 (dates to be confirmed) /TSL Workshop: / September 25-27, 2024 / / / /--------------/ /Olivier Péton IMT Atlantique, LS2N laboratory 4 Rue Alfred Kastler, 44300 Nantes, France olivier.peton(a)imt-atlantique.fr +33 251 85 83 13 / / / / /

Location related references January 2024
by Frank Plastria 10 Jan '24

10 Jan '24

Dear fellow Locators, All my best wishes for a hopefully more peaceful 2024. Below is my January entry of references, some from 2024 and many more of 2023. Bibtex in attachment. In the next months, on top of the new references that came in, I will slowly work backwards in time towards 2013 where I stopped sending my collections around. That will take time, however, in view of the extraordinary amount of location related papers being published. Keep the good works up! Sincerely Frank Plastria Prof. Em.

Special issue on location analysis in Networks and Spatial Economics
by Joerg Kalcsics 06 Dec '23

06 Dec '23

Dear locators, Please see Zvi's message below. Best, Joerg. Dear colleagues, The submission link to the special issue on location analysis is now open for submission in Networks and Spatial Economics web site. Here is the link https://link.springer.com/collections/bahedaicai<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/link.springer.com/collections/bahedaicai…> The deadline for submissions is 31 March 2024. Here is the official call for papers: Facility location models involve the location of facilities that optimize an objective like minimizing the sum of distances, the maximum distance, maximizing the captured market share, and many others. There are numerous practical applications for such models, such as locating service facilities or facilities competing for customers. We are looking for suggestions of new models and applications, useful modifications of existing models, and better algorithms (heuristic or optimal) for their solution. Review articles will also be considered. Zvi ----------------- Zvi Drezner Professor Emeritus, Department of ISDS Steven G.

First announcement of the TSL 2024 workshop, Nantes (France) 25-27 september 2024
by Olivier Péton 15 Nov '23

15 Nov '23

Dear locators, Here is the first annoucnement for the next TSL workshop in Nantes. Contributions on facility locations under uncertainty are more than welcome. Olivier Péton --------------------- The LS2N Laboratory, IMT Atlantique and CRC Services, with the support of the National Research Agency (ANR), are pleased to announce the call for the *12th INFORMS Transportation Science and Logistics Society Workshop (TSL 2024). * The workshop will be held in Nantes, France, from *September 25 to 27*. The main theme of the workshop is: *Optimizing Transportation and Logistics under Uncertainty * In the ever evolving world of transportation and logistics, there is a growing need to optimize operations under uncertainty. Decision makers are faced with variable transit times, volatile demand volumes, and fluctuating resource availability. This increases their need for algorithms that can deal with uncertainty. We invite submissions that enrich the scientific literature on optimizing transportation and logistics systems in uncertain environments. This includes, but is not limited to contributions in the following areas: - stochastic optimization, - robust optimization, - simulation-based optimization - dynamic models, - time-dependent models, - data-driven optimization, - uncertainty modeling. INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTRIBUTORS Researchers interested in giving a presentation are invited to submit an abstract of no more than two pages. The submission portal will open before February 2024. Acceptance of a presentation will be based on both the quality of the research and its appropriateness to the theme of the workshop. Please note that the TSL Workshop will be preceded by a *Doctoral School *on the same topic. We will offer a special registration rate for PhD students and young researchers who attend both events. WEBSITE (under construction): https://tsl2024.sciencesconf.org/ IMPORTANT DATES: Abstract submission deadline: /March, 31, 2024 /Notification of acceptance:/ May, 31, 2024 /Early bird registration: / July 11, 2024 /Doctoral school : / September 22-24, 2024 (dates to be confirmed) /TSL Workshop: / September 25-27, 2024 /

Dear colleagues, I wanted to share this information from the last VeRoLog newsletter: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VeRoLog 2024 Conference and VeRoLog Doctoral Disseration Prize – canceled ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear community, Due to the difficult situation in Israel, we are sorry to announce the cancellation of the 2024 VeRoLog conference planned to take place in Tel Aviv. This decision was made jointly by the organizing committee and the VeRoLog Board. It was decided that VeRoLog will not hold a conference in 2024. We hope to hold the VeRoLog conference in Tel Aviv in the future. As a consequence, the VeRoLog doctoral dissertation prize will not be awarded this year as planned, but eligible candidates will have the chance to apply for the prize at the next VeRoLog conference. In the past few years, since the COVID crisis began, the VeRoLog meetings were not as frequent as in the past, but the board is determined to revive the community's activity. The organizing committee of the 2024 VeRoLog meeting and VeRoLog board Le 27/09/2023 à 08:45, Fabien Lehuédé (via gdrro Mailing List) a écrit : > Dear colleagues, > > The EURO working group on Vehicle Routing and Logistics optimization > is organizing its 2024 doctoral dissertation prize. > > The prize is open to PhD theses in operations research for > transportation and logistics that were defended between January 1, > 2022 and June 30, 2023. > > The deadline for applying is on November 15,2023.
