The third party logistics(3PL) is generally understood as the logistics activities providing a comprehensive logistics services, all or partly outsourced by the customers on a larger term contract basis, ranging from making logistics strategies to implementing information technology services. A lot of companies in advanced countries such as the U.S.A. or some of the European countries have actively outsourced to logistics service providers in efforts to increase the efficiencies in logistics operation rather than doing themselves. In light of these environments, outsourcing to third parties has become a strategic issue demanding greater attention in corporate boardrooms. First, after deciding their logistics outsourcing, the companies have to set up their aims of 3PL through the development of logistical strategies. Second, the companies must decide service provider that fits to their business environment and conditions. As it is reported that 3PL services will bring a high rate of return and its potential will be more signigicant, providers and users of 3PL services and government ministry should prepare the way of improvement of logistics institution and plan to activate 3PL services to reach the advanced foreign countries level.

Many studies are being applied for various parts of USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technology. The world's large retail stores and warehouses that apply logistic management are also studied. With this, USN technology is increasing in its utilization. However, to handle and process real-time data will never be never easy if these huge warehouses are using too many sensors, and real-time data correction is almost impossible. Software implementation and high-speed hardware are insufficient to solve these complex problems. To solve this problem, a key solution is to implement high-speed software. Hence, this paper suggests a USN logistics management system that applies pipelining techniques for efficiency in real-time data correction and reduces errors of generated values.

The rapid growth of e-commerce market and changes in distribution channels and consumption patterns have brought about the continuous growth of the domestic parcel service market. To cope with the growth and environmental changes of the parcel service market, parcel companies have made efforts to improve logistics process and construct an information system for customer satisfaction. Since they have focused on a high quality parcel service through a variety of information technology rather than price competition, the importance of logistics information technology has been greatly perceived. Accordingly, this study examined that how information technology and information system quality of parcel companies was perceived by customers and how it influenced parcel service use and satisfaction. To achieve this purpose, this study developed a valid and reliable measurement instrument for logistics information system quality and customer satisfaction based on literature reviews. Then empirical research was made through a questionnaire survey. As a result, six determinants of logistics information system quality were derived: economy, SMS information, tracking web-site information, stability, speed, and accuracy. All factors but economy were found to have positive effects on customer satisfaction in parcel service. Finally, the theoretical and practical implications of the findings were also discussed.

우리나라에서 무역이 차지하는 비중이 적지 않다는 점은 누구나가 주지하고 있는 사실이다. 이와 관련하여 관련 당사자들은 이러한 무역을 통한 경제성장을 위하여 치열한 노력을 경주하고 있으나, 현실적으로 저임금 노동력을 바탕으로 한 개도국 제품과 고도의 기술력을 바탕으로 하고 있는 선진 제국의 틈바구니에서 어려운 경쟁을 벌이고 있다. 이를 물류의 측면에서 살펴 본다면 제반 경쟁국에 비해 관련 물류비 역시 높은 실정으로서 전자무역의 환경하에서 이러한 물류업체들의 현황은 어느 정도 수준이며, 이와 관련된 제반 문제점은 무엇인가를 규명하고 그 대용방안을 모색하고져 한다.

아시아 지역중 물류 선진국이라 할 수 있는 일본은 최근 교토 의정서에 따라 환경오염억제에 많은 노력을 하고 있다. 대기오염의 1/3을 배출하고 있는 $CO_2$의 주범 화물차량의 배기가스를 억제하기 위해 환경친화적 운송수단인 모달시스트를 업계에 적극 권장하고 있다. 그 결과 2010년까지 지금의 $CO_2$량을 1990년 기준으로 6$\%$를 억제한다는 계획을 가지고 있다. 이에 본지는 판장정보 일본 국토 교통성 정책조정관이 일본의 포장기술 2004년 6월호에 발표한 내용을 발췌, 번역 게재하고, 일본이 진행중인 모달시프트 정책의 과정을 소개한다.

군용시스템이었던 GPS가 1984년 민간에게 무료사용이 허용된 이후로 현재 위치추적기술과 이를 이용한 서비스가 많이 소개되고 있다. 하지만 이러한 서비스를 이용하기 위해서는 GPS단말기나 교환기, 수신기 등의 장비를 추가적으로 구매해야하는 비용부담이 생길 수밖에 없다. 따라서 거의 누구나 소지하고 있는 이동통신기기 또는 PDA를 사용함으로써 비용부담을 덜고 물류서비스의 효율성을 극대화시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이동통신기기나 PDA의 위치추적기능을 물류서비스에 적용하여 비용절약을 꾀하고 이동근무자나 차량의 위치를 실시간으로 파악하고 업무지시나 고객의 요구에 신속히 대응하는 효율적인 위치기반 물류 시스템을 설계하였다.

Various efforts for reducing greenhouse gas emission due to intensified climate change are being made continuously in all industrial fields, including theimplementation of"green logistics" as countermeasures in the logistics industry. Therefore, energy and greenhouse gas management are necessary for logistics warehouses in the logistics industry. In this study, asurvey on the recognition of logistics center managers and the management elements werecarried out to identify the energy management status of logistics centers. This study was carried out to identify the energy management status of warehouses and the perception of energy managers. The total numberof warehouses and the classification by purpose of use were examinedusing public DB to identify the present status of the warehouses preferentially. Based on the result, asurvey for identifying the present status of energy management and the perception of energy managers targeting 300 warehouses was carried out. Warehouse managers have shown considerable interest in energy management but they experiencedifficulty in this area due to a lack of energy management infrastructure and expertise. In the case of an energy audit, most warehouse managers had no experience in energy auditsbecausethe energy audits werenot mandatory for warehouses. The results of this study can be used as basic data to determineenergy management status and energy management elements for developing IT systems for the energy management of logistics warehouses.

The aim of this research is to identify the competencies required by freight forwarding company logistics managers or supply chain managers. And this research also attempts to show their relative importance and key knowledge areas that require improvement. Using a survey questionnaire, data was collected against forty three logistics and supply chain management skills or competencies, which were then grouped into four categories and analysed. The Analysis revealed that supply chain awareness, ability to make decisions, analytical skill, communication skill, supply chain cost, people skill, and integration of internal or external information flow which belong to logistics planning group are considered the most important competencies for effective and efficient logistics functioning. On the other hand, reverse logistics and IATA regulations from environmental awareness group show little influence on logistics managers for improving their logistics performances. The results have implications for a variety of parties including prospective logisticians, students, teachers and companies considering expanding their business to Chinese market. For example, the results permit companies to employ appropriate logistics managers who are qualified with sufficient skills and competencies suggested in this research. In the case of practitioners, the results provide a benchmark for comparison with their current level of abilities and suggested competencies.
