Global Logistics Management focuses on the evolution of logistics
in the last two decades, and highlights recent developments from a
worldwide perspective. The book details a wide range of
application-oriented studies, from metropolitan bus routing
problems to relief logistics, and introduces the state of the art
on some classical applications. The book addresses typical logistic
problems, most specifically the vehicle routing problem (VRP),
followed by a series of analyses and discussions on various
logistics problems plaguing airline and marine systems. The text
addresses problems encountered in continuous space, and discusses
the issue of consolidation, scheduling, and replenishment decisions
together with routing. It proposes a methodology that supports
decision making at a tactical and operational level associated with
daily inventory management, and also examines the three-echelon
logistic network. This material provides numerous examples and
additional topics that include: An analysis for the airline
industry and a novel approach for airline logistics including fare
pricing and seat inventory control The berth-crane allocation
problem in container terminals A marine system logistics
application Ice navigation problems and factors that affect ice
navigation Pharmaceutical warehouse route design problems An
application in healthcare logistics in which medical suppliers are
evaluated through a fuzzy linguistic representation model A real
data-driven simulation model that outputs a new shuttle system A
model that integrates routing and batching problems Joint
replenishment and transportation problems Global Logistics
Management clearly illustrates logistic problems encountered in
many different application areas, and provides you with the latest
advances in classical applications.
The second volume of a three-volume series on global logistics
management, this book focuses on recent developments and
implementations of operations research techniques on selected
logistic problems in emerging countries. The book covers topics
ranging from quality management in pharmaceutical supply chains to
risk analysis of maritime ports and identifies quality management
practices that impact supply chain performance using empirical data
from pharmaceutical manufacturing sector in Pakistan. It provides
case studies and discusses the application of IE tools.
Industrial engineering originated in the United States, and
although the popularity of this discipline has grown worldwide,
there is still little information available outside of the US
regarding its practical use and application. Industrial Engineering
Non-Traditional Applications in International Settings raises the
bar and examines industrial engineering from a global perspective.
Representing the best papers from the International Institute of
Industrial Engineers (IIIE) conference held in Istanbul in June
2013, and developed by contributors from at least six different
countries, this material lends their expertise on the international
impact of industrial engineering applications and provides a
thorough understanding of the subject. Focusing on two key aspects
of the industrial engineering (IE) discipline, non-traditional
settings and international environments, the book introduces
applications and incorporates case studies illustrating how
IE-based tools and techniques have been applied to diverse
environments around the world. Each chapter represents a novel
application of industrial tools and techniques. In addition, the
authors highlight some of the more exciting developments and
implementations of industrial engineering. The book enables both
students and practitioners to learn from universal best practices
and observe the international growth of the discipline. Consisting
of ten chapters, this groundbreaking work includes content that:
Presents applications in the area of natural resource development,
or more specifically open-pit mining, to optimize the extraction
sequence of blocks-an operation that can have a major impact on
mining profitability Studies disasters and details where to best
locate sites for disaster waste procession (multiobjective
optimization is used to identify site locations and provide
solution guidance) Examines factors affecting buying patterns and
behaviors at private shopping clubs (Turkey is used as a benchmark
and a technology acceptance model is used to study the buying
behavior) Explores optimization methods that can be used to
increase the effectiveness of the timing of traffic signals
Discusses the Turkish banking sector and the measurement of
efficiency of its banks (a topic that greatly impacts the emerging
financial market) Applies quantitative models to study 29
commercial banks and 12 investment banks Industrial Engineering
Non-Traditional Applications in International Settings explores the
globalization of this expanding discipline and serves as a guide to
industry professionals including systems, industrials,
manufacturing engineers, design, production, environmental, and
Lean Six Sigma engineers, and is also relevant to applied
ergonomics, business scm, business logistics, and business
operations management.
The books provide innovation applications and case studies that are
drawn from multiple countries. The chapters in the books represent
the best papers from the International Institute of Industrial
Engineering (IIIE) Conference held in Istanbul in June 2013,
sponsored by the IIE. The books showcase real-life case studies and
applications that are set internationally, and allow students and
practitioners to learn from best practices and also to study the
growth of the discipline internationally.
