This article will contribute to the literature on facility network design by considering the role of competition in the evaluation of capacity investment decisions. As firms have turned to global supply networks to satisfy multiple regional demands, strategic decisions concerning the location and centralization of production must be made to balance a number of important factors: differentials i...

Information about current quality state enables large improvements in the dynamic planning for the logistics of fresh products. The main reason for quality losses are temperature deviations. This article investigates how a prediction system that delivers a shelf life prediction at each transhipment point could be integrated into a semi-passive RFID label. Limiting factors for the possible predi...

Abstract The article presents the technical and organizational assumptions of RFID implementation in selected elements supply chains, especially warehouses, transhipment, terminal facilities. A method quantifying technology has been proposed. On this basis, structure a mathematical model was submitted to evaluate performance indicators solutions logistics

This paper provides a comprehensive literature review of mathematical models in cross docking planning. From the reviews, the models are classified in three different levels regarding its decisions level which are operational, tactical, and strategic level. The researches in operational level are mainly related to develop model in scheduling, dock door assignment, transhipment problem, vehicle ...
