                                  Preface


Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) is a mathematical field rooted in lattice and
order theory which, although being of such a theoretical nature, has proved to
be of interest to various applied fields such as Knowledge Discovery and Data
Mining, Database Theory, Data Visualization, and many others.
The 13th International Conference on Formal Concept Analysis (ICFCA) took
place from the 23th to the 26th of June, 2015 in Nerja (Málaga), Spain, organized
by members of the Universidad de Málaga. The International Workshop on For-
mal Concept Analysis and Applications (FCA&A) was organized in conjunction
to ICFCA, and consisted of the seven works included in this volume.
Our deepest gratitude goes to all the authors of submitted papers, the Program
Committee members, and the external reviewers. Working with the efficient and
capable team of local organizers was a constant pleasure. We are deeply indebted
to all of them for making this conference a successful forum on FCA.
Last, but not least, we are most grateful to the organizations that sponsored
this event: the Universidad de Málaga, Andalucı́a Tech (International Campus
of Excellence), the Patronato de Turismo de la Costa del Sol and the Área
de Turismo del Ayuntamiento de Nerja, all in Spain. Finally, we would like to
emphasize the great help of EasyChair for making the technical duties easier.
