Modern logistics comprises operative logistics, analytical logistics and the management of dynamic logistic networks. The central task of operative logistics is the efficient supply of required goods at the right place in the right order at the right time. The tasks of analytical logistics are to design optimal supply networks and logistic systems, to develop strategies for planning, scheduling and operation, and to organize efficient order and performance processes. Logistic management has to plan, implement and operate the logistic network of a company and to schedule the orders, resources and inventories. This book about planning, management and operation of logistic systems and supply networks offers a unique survey of modern logistics.
