Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHorizontal Cooperation Practices in Internet-based Higher Education, Computational Logistics and TelecommunicationsJesica de Arma, Thanasis Daradoumis, Anastasios A. Economides, Angel A. JuanGlobalization and advances in information and communication technologies have boosted the use of Horizontal Cooperation (HC) practices in many industry sectors. In the current international market, these ‘alliances’ become especially relevant for small and medium organizations, which are forced to compete with large-scale corporations. This paper analyzes benefits and challenges of HC practices in three service sectors that are critical … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2019 · 7,421 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReal Time Object Tracking and Protection: Hybrid Logistics Architecture in Ubiquitous Environments (HLAiUE)Abdul Jawwad Patel, Abeer Alsadoon, P.W.C. Prasad, A. ElchouemiRealtime object security and vehicle tracking have not been successfully implemented in commercial vehicles due to limitations in processing large amount of data and hardware capabilities. This paper aimed to improve the object security, processing power and data storage in a distributed environment. The proposed system (HLAiUE) consists of a three-layer architecture, first layer is used to collect data, second … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 8 · 17 Oct 2018 · 7,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsConvergence of GenAI and RPA: A Digital Heaven in Supply Chain Optimization ProcessSaurabh A. Pahune, Zahid Akhtar, Manoj Chandrasekharan et al.One of the most groundbreaking advances in the field of intelligent automation is the merging of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) and Robotic Process Automation (RPA). This combination unlocks previously unachievable capabilities in automation. RPA (software bots) improves speed and operational efficiency by automating rule-based tasks, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and repetitive workflows. At the same time, it minimizes manual labor … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 12 · 8 Feb 2026 · 2,040 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThird-Party Logistic Selection for Logistic Aggregator Company using Multi-Criteria Decision MakingMuhammad Khakim Hidayad, Ditdit Nugeraha UtamaThe customer of AggregatorCompany for Logistics (ACL) faces a problem when creating an order in the aggregatorlogistics platform. They have difficulty making an order as there are a lot ofthird-Party Logistic (3PL) alternatives available but they do not have anyreferences for which 3PL they should select. This study helps the customer tochoose the best 3PL by determining the suitable criteria. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 9 · 9 Sep 2022 · 5,804 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn NPV Optimization Model for Closed-Loop Supply Chain Network Design and PlanningAl-Ashhab Mohamed Sayed, Nahid AfiaAs the importance of forward-reverse logistics increases, attention will be focused on parameters which affect Net Present Value (NPV) of the whole system, aiming at considering the time value of money in planning. In this research, an NPV optimization model for multi-period multi-product closed-loop supply chain network design and planning is developed to maximize the total NPV. The effect of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 18 Feb 2017 · 7,633 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPaving the Way for Warehouse Centralization in Healthcare: A Preliminary Assessment ApproachAnna Corinna Cagliano, Sabrina Grimaldi, Carlo RafeleCentralized logistics management is currently one interesting option for healthcare systems facing an increasing need to improve responsiveness and service quality while reducing costs. This work focuses on one aspect of centralized logistics, namely warehouse centralization and proposes a preliminary approach to assess material management in healthcare institutions as a first step towards decisions about the implementation of such a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 5 May 2016 · 7,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMeta Heuristic Algorithms for Vehicle Routing Problem with Stochastic DemandsGeetha Shanmugam, Poonthalir Ganesan, Dr. P.T. VanathiProblem statement: The shipment of goods from manufacturer to the consumer is a focal point of distribution logistics. In reality, the demand of consumers is not known a priori. This kind of distribution is dealt by Stochastic Vehicle Routing Problem (SVRP) which is a NP-hard problem. In this proposed work, VRP with stochastic demand is considered. A probability distribution is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 8,021 accessesView PDFCite
