An Evolvement-Based Modeling Method for Logistics Network

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing ((AINSC,volume 62))

Abstract

In order to simulate the development process of logistics network, an evolvement method for logistics network is put out. The logistics network’s growth and degeneration are all been taken into consideration firstly, based on the dissipation characters of the network, the dynamics of logistics network is been brought forward then. The simulating results support the modeling method come context and fit the demands of real logistics network, the changing of nodes and edges can’t destroy the hierarchical structure and the dissipative structure. The modeling method affords a new way to us to analyze the logistics network from the system term.
