Formal Notation of a Logistic System Model Taking into Consideration Cargo Stream Transformations
Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2011, Vol 23, Issue 1
Abstract
The modeling of logistic systems is a complex task. Specific goals to be attained by the systems (mainly cargo stream form transformations) and the diversity of resources used within the systems are the main reasons. Therefore various models useful for the partial analyses of logistic systems have been devised. The author’s approach to the formal notation of a logistic system model proposed in this paper may be used as a basis to work out various classes of detailed (integrated) models. In addition to cargo stream time, form and location transformations, transformations of material and human resources used within logistic systems have also been taken into account in the proposed model. Keywords: logistic systems, system potential, logistic system modeling
