Cloud Logistics: Fundamentals of Logistics Systems [The term ‘‘logistics” refers to the flow of objects in time and space, predominantly to the flow of goods and information in a business context (see Section B.II.1). Logistics systems can be defined as the structures and processes that serve the purpose of transforming objects in time and space (Delfmann 2012:268f.; see Section B.II.2). To formally define logistics systems in this thesis, we adopt the quadruple of (1) composition, (2) environment, (3) structure, and (4) mechanisms (Bunge 1997:416, 414ff.; see also Bunge 1996:270). The composition refers to the collection of components or parts that belong to the system at a given point in time.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[The term ‘‘logistics” refers to the flow of objects in time and space, predominantly to the flow of goods and information in a business context (see Section B.II.1). Logistics systems can be defined as the structures and processes that serve the purpose of transforming objects in time and space (Delfmann 2012:268f.; see Section B.II.2). To formally define logistics systems in this thesis, we adopt the quadruple of (1) composition, (2) environment, (3) structure, and (4) mechanisms (Bunge 1997:416, 414ff.; see also Bunge 1996:270). The composition refers to the collection of components or parts that belong to the system at a given point in time.]
