  • Due to limitation of resources and increasing concerns about environment, reverse logistics has received growing attention in recent years. In this paper, we propose three types of reverse logistics networks based on reuse of returnable containers, materials recycling process and remanufacturing for parts reuse. First, the sender in the re-usable item network supplies containers for the recipient and orders either new containers from external supplier or returnable containers cleaned from the container depot. Second, the recycling center in the proposed recycling network collects either end of life products from customer or faulty goods from manufacturer, collected products are dismantled into materials and materials go into recycling process. Finally, the manufacturer in the proposed remanufacturing network has two alternatives for supplying parts: either ordering the required parts to external supplier or overhauling disassembled parts and bringing them back 'as new' conditions. In this product recovery environment, we build optimal order quantity models to minimize the total logistics costs related to reverse logistics network. The validity of the proposed model is investigated through comprehensive computational experiments.

  • Global logistics including Korea had developed at various fields through the developed IT technology. In addition, in changing into Internet based digital economy times, economic and logistics activities became extending into worldwide over the cross-border. Logistics activity performed by off-line rapidly changed in real environment. But, unfortunately business process modeling about the whole logistics was not happened, even though process modeling had done by transport stages or logistics entities. Therefore, it is difficult to grasp the whole logistics. Additional cost and time was requested due to no association between logistics entities and invisibility. So, this paper has to be process modeling for logistics industry domain. For objective modeling, work area shall be divided and it extracts general work process per each area. And then it defines subprocess of general work process. Cargo tracking in logistics industry domain means to grasp the status and present states at transportation or storage stage. This paper defines business process and data model for electronic processed work area using the UN/CEFACT standard modeling methodology.
