Kurzbeschreibung

Today, there is a huge variety of logistics networks - ranging from very simple locally oriented chains to internationally operating complex systems. However, each of these networks is formed by logistics nodes connected by different types of edges. Various questions arise during build-up and operation of these systems.
This volume, edited by Thorsten Blecker, Wolfgang Kersten and Carsten Gertz provides a valuable insight into: - new concepts for transportation and supply chain management
- latest findings in the area of distribution management
- service-oriented architectures and agency approaches for efficient and effective network and node management
- pioneering technologies for logistics such as Auto-ID. With this book readers will obtain information on how to plan and optimize logistics networks supported by modern IT and management concepts.

Rezension

"Nevertheless, the book does present a number of interesting case-based contributions which give the reader an overview of current innovations in network design and modelling approaches that can help in improving the logistics network. In the end the book does fulfill its aim. As a consequence, it is advised to students, researchers and practitioners who look for insights on 'how to plan and optimize logistics networks supported by modern IT and management concepts'." (J. G. A. J. van der Vorst, Wageningern University, The Netherlands International Journal of Production Research (IJPR), Vol, 48, No. 6, March 2010)
