Put forward based on location factors evaluation and location advantages express logistics node location two-phase model of evaluation. An express logistics node location ...

Currently, politicians, university representatives, scholars and leading NGOs share a strong belief in the ability of educational systems to generate positive attitudes to sustainable development (SD) among citizens, with the idea of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) as perhaps the most apparent expression of this conviction. The aim of this paper is to investigate whether ESD might h...

Although sustainability in the fashion industry has gained prominence from both business practices and academic research, retailing, a vital part of the supply chain, has not yet been fairly explored in academia. The interest in this area has increased lately, mainly due to the growing complexity within this dynamic context. Therefore, it is meaningful to conduct a systematic review of the rele...

Freight village (FV) is a logistics phenomenon with broad economic, social and environmental consequences. A well organized and knowledge-based planning process is critical to realize sustainable development of FVs, due to its capability to avoid negative phenomena (e.g., unnecessary FV projects, high vacancy rates, unsuitable sites, disturbance to local residents, air and water pollutions) fro...

Global optimization of mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems containing signomial terms is in many cases a difficult task, and many different approaches to solve these problems have been devised. In Westerlund (2005) a method where a relaxed convex relaxation of the original problem is obtained by approximating single-variable transformations with piecewise linear functions (PLFs...

In this paper, the design of wireless sensor node is serial communication module with IEEE/ZigBee transmission module to replace the traditional, logistics collected data will be wirelessly sent. The GRPS communication circuit is mainly composed of a power supply circuit, GPRS module, SIM interface circuit and the serial interface circuit part. Its core is the GPRS module. The paper presents ap...

This paper introduces the spatial panel autocorrelation model, utilizes C-D production functions, constructs the spatial econometric model and finally studies the spatial correlativity between provincial economic growth and logistics. By using the spatial package of Matlab software, it verifies the possibility if there is the remarkable autocorrelation of the Chinese provincial economic growth ...

Healthcare applications are demanding with respect to their IT needs. Due to their complexity they need strong IT support which must provide enough freedom to their users in the medical domain because of the high degree of flexibility required by them. We have chosen a process based technology, called data logistics, which can cope with these almost conflicting requirements. Data logistics is b...
