Pioneering Solutions in Supply Chain Performance Management
As competition between value chains on globalized markets is constantly getting fiercer, there is a growing trend to achieve closer collaboration and integration within these value chains and increasingly more complex supply networks. Additionally, in the wake of the thrilling possibilities of using information technology and its potential in boosting the performance of supply chains, researchers are increasingly looking for technology-enabled solutions for a better supply chain performance management. This volume, edited by Thorsten Blecker, Wolfgang Kersten and Christian Ringle, provides valuable insights into: - Maritime Logistics – Challenges and Opportunities - Leveraging Logistics Processes for Supply Chain Performance Management - Innovative Technology Solutions in Supply Chains - Knowledge Management in Logistics. This volume appeals to researchers and practitioners alike, who are interested in current contributions by international authors, providing theoretical, empirical and case-study oriented background and information on their research work.
Dynamics in Logistics
This contributed volume brings together research papers presented at the 4th International Conference on Dynamics in Logistics, held in Bremen, Germany in February 2014. The conference focused on the identification, analysis and description of the dynamics of logistics processes and networks. Topics covered range from the modeling and planning of processes, to innovative methods like autonomous control and knowledge management, to the latest technologies provided by radio frequency identification, mobile communication, and networking. The growing dynamic poses wholly new challenges: logistics processes and networks must be(come) able to rapidly and flexibly adapt to constantly changing conditions. The book primarily addresses the needs of researchers and practitioners from the field of logistics, but will also be beneficial for graduate students.
Managing and Implementing the Digital Transformation
This book shows how companies can practically implement the advantages of Industry 4.0 and digitalization and also addresses the current challenges with regard to engineering education for Industry 4.0. In this book, we collect the contributions of the 1st Symposium on Industrial Engineering and Automation (ISIEA 2022), which took place from June 21–22, 2022 at the Free University of Bolzano. The contributions cover three basic areas: (1) best practice examples and technical solutions for the implementation of Industry 4.0 in production and logistics, (2) management-oriented approaches for the digital transformation in companies, and (3) addressing Industry 4.0 in engineering education. The book targets different readers. Researchers find approaches to current research topics regarding Industry 4.0. Practitioners find valuable examples for technological implementations as well as management approaches for introducing digitalization. Students and lecturers find hints on how Industry 4.0 can be integrated into university teaching.
Managing Risks in Supply Chains
The new volume, edited by Wolfgang Kersten and Thorsten Blecker, offers the most important perspectives on supply chain risk management. The contributions written by named experts provide actual information about workable approaches for supply chain risk management, analyses of supply chain risks, identification of key risk factors for logistics outsourcing, assessment of the uncertainty of delivery. With this book readers will gain central insights how to handle approaches for supply chain risk management within their business. They will learn how to manage risks effectively to build leaner supply chains with a maintainable risk exposure for all partners in industry and services.
Efficiency and Innovation in Logistics
The importance of logistics in all its variations is still increasing. New technologies emerge, new planning methods and algorithms are developed, only to face a market with a growing complexity and the need of weighting monetary costs against ecological impact. Mastering these challenges requires a scientific viewpoint on logistics, but always with applications in mind. This volume presents up-to-date logistics research in all its diversity and interconnectedness. It grew out of the “International Logistics Science Conference” (ILSC) held in Dortmund in September 2013, bringing together leading scientists and young academics from nine different countries. The conference was jointly orga...
Intelligent Security Solutions for Cyber-Physical Systems
A cyber-physical system (CPS) is a computer system in which a mechanism is controlled or monitored by computer-based algorithms and involves transdisciplinary approaches, merging theories of cybernetics, mechatronics, design, and process science. This text mainly concentrates on offering a foundational theoretical underpinning, and a comprehensive and coherent review of intelligent security solutions for cyber-physical systems. Features: Provides an overview of cyber-physical systems (CPSs) along with security concepts like attack detection methods, cyber-physical systems failures, and risk identification and management Showcases cyber-physical systems (CPSs) security solutions, lightweight ...

Proceedings of the International Conference Theory and Applications in the Knowledge Economy TAKE 2017
Foreword A famous Portuguese Poet once said around one hundred years ago; “before I was born all the words that should save the Humanity had already been written.., the only thing that was missing was to save Humanity.” Fast forward to the 21st century services led and knowledge based economy, and we have myriads of theoretical study about the decisive assets – namely intangibles. Those analysis are made in several perspectives, namely Human Resources, Knowledge Management, Intellectual Capital, and also many sectorial perspectiveslike Trade, Economics, Logistics, Social Policy etc. However, today the question about the applicability of all these studies remains unsolved. So, it like, ...
Impacts of natural disasters on supply chain performance
Considering the increasing importance of natural disaster events it is inevitable to also focus on their impacts on supply chains as well as their performance impacts on them. The developed approach SCperformND (Supply Chain performance impact assessment of Natural Disasters) demonstrates a methodology to assess those impacts and gives implications for supply chain designs and procurement decisions.
