A Simulation Study for the Logistics Planning of a Container Operations In view of SCM
This paper aims to apply a supply chain modeling and its analysis framework to the supply chain in the port industry. The simulation approach serves two purposes: to model a supply chain network in quantity approach and to evaluate its supply chain performance based on proposed strategies. Through the modeling works to improve the performance, the components of simulation model such as input model, strategy model, operational policy model and performance model in port supply chain were identified. The effects of various strategies can guide the way to administrate the supply chain in the different objectives.
