Abstract: Abstract Telecommunications is an important area of application in combinatorial optimization. A large class of problems encountered by telecommunications operators are related to location theory. The aim of this chapter is to review recent developments in the application of location models for the design of (wired) telecommunications networks. In particular, we cover the Concentrator Location Problem, the Connected Facility Location Problem, the Regenerator Location Problem and some Ring Location problems.
