Abstract

As the national strategic emerging industry, e-commerce industry is attracting more attentions. In order to deeply understand the dynamic mechanism of the E-commerce industry development, this paper divides the e-commerce industry development system into four interrelated subsystems on the basis of system dynamics: technological progress, market demand, economic development and industrial environment. We construct the dynamic model of the E-commerce industry system using MATLAB software, which is guided by the government, technological progress, logistics level. The market demand is variable to design different simulation policies. The corresponding countermeasures and suggestions are also discussed for the development of the e-commerce industry in ethnic regions in China.
