Описание: Ghiani (Department of Innovation Engineering, University of Lecce, Italy) explains the quantitative methods necessary for logistics systems management at a level suitable for undergraduate and graduate students of engineering, computer science, and management science. The book features introductory material on business logistics and covers sales forecasting, inventory management, warehouse design and management, and transport planning and control. Each topic is illustrated with real examples and case studies that show how methods can be applied to complex logistics problems. A basic knowledge of operations research is assumed.
