This study explored the impact of interactional justice on supply-chain collaboration and sustainable supply-chain performance. Accordingly, it classified interactional justice of supply-chain management (SCM) into interpersonal and informational justice, and empirically classified the effects of these subordinate concepts on supply-chain collaboration and sustainable supply-chain performance. To this end, 700 questionnaires were distributed, and 201 final valid responses were used for the statistical analysis which revealed the significant positive influence of interpersonal justice on informational justice. This indicates that courtesy, respect, and proper words are important in the relationship between buyers and sellers. Both interpersonal and informational justice had a significant positive relationship with supply-chain collaboration. The results suggest that a fair-trade environment should be cultivated to encourage and facilitate seller-buyer collaboration. Lastly, supply-chain collaboration had a positive influence on sustainable supply-chain performance. This implies that if justice is not perceived in the seller-buyer relationship, collaboration can be hindered, which negatively impacts corporate performance. These findings also helped to understand the importance of interactional justice and to propose a new relationship between interpersonal and informational justice.

Purpose - In recent, Japanese retailers have expanded their business into Korea, although Korean customers have anti-Japan sentiment in their mind, It is, thus, necessary to investigate how Korean customers react to Japanese retailers, when selecting a shopping place. Research design, data, and methodology - The authors have developed a research model with five hypotheses, based on the literature review process, and used confirmative factor analysis(CFA) as well as a structural equation model(SEM) as a research technique, in order to verify hypotheses. Results - All of hypotheses are accepted. Anti-Japan sentiment significantly influences consumer ethnocentrism and animosity. Interestingly, consumer ethnocentricity affects the formation process of animosity. Rather than ethnocentrism, animosity relatively influences customer attitudes towards Japanese retailers, when Korean customers choose a retailer. Conclusions - The authors found that anti-Japan sentiment has significantly affected Korean customer attitudes. In order for Japanese retailers to increase their market shares in the Korean market, they have to make a significant effort to alleviate the degree of anti-Japan sentiment, together with Japanese government. In contrast with research findings, Japanese retailers have done their business very well in Korea. Considering that Japanese retailers target younger customers in Korea, demographic elements should be involved in the future research.

Railroad is considered as an eco-friendly transportation mode because it emits lower greenhouse gases and air pollutants and consumes less energy compared to trucking. To promote rail freight, many countries have implemented various policies, while South Korea has implemented few substantial policies. This study aims to compare and analyze rail freight policies of various countries in order to suggest policy implications to South Korea. We analyze relevant policies of 9 countries; these are classified into 5 categories, and we provide policy implications for facilitating rail freight infrastructure and equipments, grants for the transportation cost using freight rail, and road freight restriction policy.

In this paper the order picking problem in warehouses is considered, a topic which has received considerable attention from the international academic body in recent years. The order picking problem deals with the retrieval of order items from prespecified locations in the warehouse, and its objective is usually the minimization of travel time or travel distance. Hence, a well-thought order picking policy in combination with an appropriate storage policy will enhance warehouse efficiency and reduce operational costs. This paper starts with a literature overview summarizing approaches to routing order pickers, assigning stock-keeping units to pick locations and designing warehouse layouts. Since the layout design might affect both storage and routing policies, the three factors are interdependent with respect to order picking performance. To test these interdependencies, a simulation experiment was set up, involving two types of warehouse layout, four types of storage policy, five well-known heuristics and five sizes of order picking list. Our results illustrate that from the point of view of order picking distance minimization it is recommended to equip the warehouse with a third cross aisle, although this comes at the cost of a certain space loss. Additionally, we propose a set of most appropriate matches between order picking heuristics and storage policies. Finally, we give some directions for further research and recommend an integrated approach involving all factors that affect warehouse efficiency.

The medium and small logistic companies that have an outsourcing contract from the large corporation are encountered with a problem to introduce the ERP system to their current business environment due to following risk of change in current business environment, high cost involved in investment, and lack of understanding of business requirement of ERP. Instead of build their own ERP system, the small and medium logistic companies are using the large corporation's ERP system and get the benefit of efficiency in management and control process. Therefore, it is more like the organization hierarchy, not collaboration between the medium and small companies with the large corporation. In this study, the survey method to find out how the medium and small logistic companies understand the importance of ERP system on continuous growth of business by AHP. as result, they are recognized. The benefit of the ERP system as having much effect on business competitiveness.

Busan New Port has continued to expand its capacity to handle transshipment cargos exceeding 50 percent of its total volume, but it is considered inefficient because of the work scheduling based on the worker experience. In particular, depending on the transshipment task situation, which often requires an external truck, excessive congestion caused by the vehicle's delay can lead to increased logistics costs and social costs. One way to resolve this issue is to minimize the single transport of the truck and to maximize dual-cycle transport by putting the finished truck into another task. Therefore, we would like to study how to efficiently schedule transportation transshipment cargos between terminals considering dual-cycle.

물류 표준화의 핵심은 수송, 보관, 포장, 상/하역, 정보/보안의 물류활동간의 호환성과 연계성의 확보이다. 국제표준 채택을 의무화하고 있는 WTO/TBT 협정을 차치하더라도 물류표준화의 정도는 국가의 물류경쟁력을 결정짓는 가장 중요한 척도라고 할 수 있다. 특히 한 중 일 3국의 경우 교역랑만 5조 3,236억불로 전 세계 교역량의 17.6%(2010년 기준), GDP 합계 12조3443억 달러로(2010년 기준) 세계전체 GDP 62조 9093억 달러 중 19.6%, 해운물동량은 전 세계 물동량의 60% 이상을 차지하고 있는 상황에서 물류경쟁력은 곧 국가경쟁력으로 보아도 무방하다. 아직도 국내에서는 물류분야 간 연계와 첨단정보기술이 결합된 현장중심의 융 복합 표준이 미비하고 대부분의 경우 해외국가들이 자신들의 입장대로 추진하거나 선점한 표준을 따라가기 바쁜 실정이었다. 스마트물류표준화는 이러한 현실에서 탈피하여 글로벌 물류표준을 선도하고 국내 현실에 적합한 현장물류표준을 반영하자는 취지에서 출발한다. 스마트물류는 i-ULS(Intelligent-Unified Logistics System) 체계, 즉 IT와 각 물류기술을 융합하여 표준화시키는 것은 물론 기존 표준을 산업현실에 맞게 반영해 나가는 것이 국가표준코디네이터로서의 주요한 목표가 되고 있다. 본 고는 전년도 스마트물류 표준화로드업에 작성된 표준화기술 중 산업체 설문을 통하여 10대 주요 표준화 트렌드를 선정하여 정리한 것이다. 10대 표준화 기술로는 순환물류포장시스템, 실시간 위치추적기술, 스마트컨테이너(Smart Freight Containers), 해상용 컨테이너 모니터링 시스템(CTMS), 글로벌 포장 표준모듈, 친환경물류 표준지표, 스마트물류 포장용기, 스마트그린물류센터(Passive Warehouse), 모바일 RFID 물류 적용 기술, Modal Shift(전환교통) 등이 선정되었다. 이번 4월호 특집에서는 10대 표준화 전략트렌드 가운데, 스마트물류에 대해 알아보도록 한다.

Requirements management is one of the most essential activities of systems engineering in developing successful weapon systems. Particularly it is very important to consistently manage the traceability among the user requirements, the system requirements, the development specifications and the testing plans throughout the entire life cycle of the weapon system. However, the most part of requirements-related activities has centered around the functional and performance requirements but the integrated logistics support(ILS) requirement has not properly been managed. In this regard, a special attention is needed to develop and manage the ILS requirements. To do so, the ANSI/EIA-632 standard can be referred as a starting point since the ILS requirements of the weapon system under development are specified by the enabling products whereas the functional and performance requirements are covered by the end product requirements. Specifically, we first review and model several cases of previous weapon systems development, which reveals the problem of interest. Then, under the framework of ANSI/EIA-632, we study a hierarchical model for effectively managing ILS requirements by analyzing the features of ILS requirements. Finally, the value of the proposed model is discussed through the case study of electronic warfare equipment.
