Chapter Chapter 16 in Multicriteria Location Analysis, 2023, pp 295-318 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Location and/or relocation of facilities is a strategic decision involving long-term planning and as such, involves considerable effort and lead-time. As such, academic researchers have devoted a considerable amount of attention to locational modeling and therefore, there are at least 3500 publications on the subject, see Domschke and Drexl (Location and Layout Planning: An International Bibliography, in Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems, vol. 238, Springer, Berlin-Heidelberg-New York, 1985) and Hale and Moberg (Ann Oper Res 123(1), 21–35, 2003). The focus of this chapter, however, is on the practice of locational modeling and survey of the practitioner literature on the same.
