Recently many firms operate a cross-docking center in addition to run a distribution center to reduce logistics costs and maintain or enhance logistics service. However, it is true that many firms just operate their cross-docking centers as they are without any change, in spite of that the location of the cross-docking center should be changed and operated when the location of distribution center is changed and moved. This study presents the method that re-selects the location of the cross-docking center when the existing distribution center is changed. Describing the operation environment to apply the cross-docking system and the selection criteria of the cross-docking center under the environment of changeable logistics network, we define the simulation model which can analyze and select the location of the cross-docking center applied to a logistics field. The simulation model presents experiential algorithm selecting the location with the data of the demand point such as volume, transportation costs, and delivery distance.

The expansion on the scale of international trade and rapid economic growth in Northeast Asia have caused intense competition among global companies for securing international logistics center in Northeast Asia. Analyzing location competitiveness for international logistics center in Northeast Asia, this paper aims to extract implications for enhancing locational competitiveness. Employing the relative importance among location selection factors extracted from AHP analysis in prior study, we evaluated the major five port-cities in Northeast Asia including Busan, Gwangyang, Shanghai, Qingdao and Tokyo. In the evaluations, Shanghai (3.926) ranked as the first, followed by Busan (3.859), Qingdao (3.555), Tokyo (3.013) and Gwangyang (2.915). Furthermore, the causal relationships between determinants for location choice decision (logistics factor, cost factor, market factor, service factor and environmental factor) and dependent variables (competitiveness of international logistics center, potentiality to growth, present intention to move into and future plan to move into) were analyzed to provide implications. Results provide useful insights for further improvements, and helps strategic agenda for future development of port-cities.

Purpose - As the global product network expands through both internationalization and diversification of the multimodal transportation system, corporate strategies have shifted to emphasize the importance of a high value-added international logistics system. To guide policies and strategies to attract relevant industries, this study aims to analyze the location competitiveness of regional logistics distribution center to serve Northeast Asia. Design/methodology - Multi-criteria techniques are considered to offer a promising framework for evaluating decision-making factors. This paper employed an analytic hierarchy process to analyze the hierarchal structure of determinants for selecting the location of a regional logistics distribution center. Adopting both qualitative and quantitative evaluations, this study suggest political implications for a regional logistics distribution center development, such as the direction of political support, service differentiation and infrastructure development. Findings - This study developed a location competitiveness evaluation model, based on the case study of the major port-cities in Northeast Asia. Evaluation model incorporates five factors underpinning 17 components extracted using factor analysis. The results revealed that the logistics factor is the most significant factor for evaluating the competitiveness of a regional logistics distribution center. The remaining factors were market, costs, and services environment. Comparing qualitative and quantitative evaluations, results provide useful insights for a regional logistics distribution center development in Northeast Asia. Originality/value - This study revealed differences between qualitative and quantitative evaluations. The finding implies that prior works on evaluation models of competitiveness has not successfully measured the gap between quantitative data and expert' evaluations. To overcome this limitation, this paper considered both actual data such as actual distance, cost, the number of companies located, and expert opinions.

2007년 중국 물류비용이 GDP에서 18.4%의 비중을 차지하고 2006년보다 18.2% 증가했다. 중국 물류비중과 증가추세를 감안할 때 효과적인 물류시스템구축과 운영이 중요한 과제로 인식되고 있으나 중국의 물적 유통시스템, 공급사슬관리에 관한 연구 성과는 미흡하다. 본 연구는 공급사슬관리의 생산요소 및 배송요소와 관련된 공장이나 창고 등 시설의 입지 문제를 다루었다. 본 연구는 기존의 단일 시설입지결정모형인 무게중심법과 수송계획법에 본 연구에서 제안한 수정무게중심법을 결합하여 새로운 복수시설의 입지결정모형을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 새로운 복수시설 선정모형은 두 개 이상의 시설물 입지선정 문제에 활용할 수 있고 생산 및 서비스 시설, 유통 및 물류 시설 입지, 방송 및 통신위성의 위치, 무선통신탑의 입지 등에 활용할 수 있다.

최근 GPS(Global Positioning System)와 무선통신 기술을 이용하여 화물의 위치정보를 파악하는 것이 용이해지고 있다. 해운물류산업에서는 글로벌화가 가속화됨에 따라 화물을 실은 선박의 입출항 확인, 물류차량의 물류거점별 진입여부 등 화물의 가시성, 추적성, 실시간 정보제공의 필요성이 더욱 커지고 있다. 이러한 위치정보를 무선통신기술을 이용하여 물류주체에게 제공함으로써 공급사슬을 효율적으로 운영하고, 물류비용을 줄일 수 있다. 이전의 논문에서 GPS 데이터를 이용한 소프트웨어적인 방법으로 GPS 기반의 글로벌 위치추적 시스템을 제안한 바 있다. 그러나 이전 시스템에서는 실시간 위치이동 정보를 파악하기에 미흡한 문제점이 있었으며, 경도, 위도 좌표에 따른 글로벌 물류거점 위치를 신속하게 검색 및 조회하는 연구가 미비했었다. 따라서, 이 논문에서는 실시간으로 해운물류 과정의 화물 위치를 파악하고 GPS 좌표에 따른 물류거점을 신속하게 검색할 수 있는 보완된 위치추적 시스템을 제안한다.

글로벌 해운물류에서 계속적으로 이동하는 화물의 위치 정보를 추적하고 관리하는 것은 물류주체에게 중요한 일이다. 화물에 부착된 태그의 GPS 좌표 흐름을 분석하면 물류거점을 기반으로 한 화물의 위치정보를 쉽게 추적할 수 있다. 즉, 태그와 물류거점간의 동적인 위치변화를 이용하여 거점 단위의 위치 이동을 추적할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 전세계 물류거점을 대상으로 이러한 거점 단위 위치추적 알고리즘의 정확성과 오동작을 측정하기 위해 시뮬레이션 시스템을 개발하였다. 실제 태그를 제작하여 실험하기에는 많은 제약이 따르기 때문에 실제 태그와 유사하게 동작하는 태그 에뮬레이터를 개발하여 가상 태그를 생성한다. 실제 태그와 같은 통신 프로토콜을 이용하여 위치추적 시스템에 데이터를 전송함으로써 위치추적 시스템이 잘 동작함을 보인다.

Nowadays, logistics parks are no longer simply storage areas but rather the center of corporate supply activities. As the importance of logistics increases, so does the value of logistics related facilities. Unlike the past, in which the sole purpose of logistics services was the spatial movement of materials through transportation, modern logistics are required to carry out functions such as timely adjustment and swift adaptation to changing patterns, and this leads to the emphasis on forming logistics parks. Logistics parks make profits using the efficiency of time and space. Such logistics parks play an important role in a corporation creating operating profits as well as acting as a method of alternative investment for individuals. Logistics parks no longer simply store materials, but have become a place that plays an important role in various areas of corporate and individual activities, and thus the analysis of the selection of the location of logistics parks and the related characteristics is extremely important. There are many existing studies on the selection of locations of logistics parks but work on the factors related to location selection by industry seem lacking. As such, in the course of this study we have used preceeding studies to draft a questionnaire on which selection factors affect the selection of logistics park location in different industries and conducted empirical analysis of the questionnaire results to uncover the factors that affect the selection of the locations of logistics parks in different industries.

In Korea military (KM), various military supplies are distributed to individual military units via three different multi-tier supply networks owned and operated by army, navy, and air force, respectively. Under the current supply networks, the chances for the occurrence of delayed supply, undersupply, and oversupply increase, and supply redundancy also can become a problem. Thus, KM is now trying to improve its current multi-tier supply networks by constructing logistics consolidation centers. Private companies operate logistics consolidation centers to effectively manage various types of inventories before delivering them to final customers. In this paper, we newly propose a mathematical model for building the optimized military supply network considering adopting the military logistics consolidation centers. Based on the real situation of KM, the proposed model was validated in terms of its feasibility, and it seems that the outcome (the location of the military logistics consolidation centers) of the proposed model can be one of the good alternatives for KM.
