Firstly, based on the comprehensive analysis of the decision-making elements of balanced transportation decision-making, the balanced decision-making model is established. Then, based on the mathematical mapping idea, a code conversion method is given, which can transform the continuous search space into discrete search space and change the real numbers to integers; Finally, two constraints on the balanced transportation decision-making model condition. Due to the first constrain, we use the repair and optimization algorithm based on Matthew effect to process. Then, the second constraint is processed by the repair and optimization algorithm based on the greedy strategy, which can repair and optimize the infeasible solutions into feasible solutions. Two examples are used to verify the algorithm. The example’s result shows that the DGWO algorithm is better than the genetic algorithm in terms of convergence speed or convergence accuracy, which proves the effectiveness, correctness, and superiority of DGWO.

This model adopts integrated supply chain management theory and collaborative theory to analyze the inventory control principle in shipbuilding enterprises, and its goal is to minimize the cost and maximize the service level. The dynamic replenishment strategy from two types of suppliers is given by using mathematical knowledge, such as optimization theory, probability theory, and mathematical statistics to solve the model. Finally, shipbuilding enterprises take paint inventory control as an example to test and verify the validity and correctness of the model by using numerical simulation and sensitivity analysis. The results show that the dynamic collaborative replenishment model of shipbuilding enterprises inventory control can make full use of the...

This paper provides a literature review, past and current insights, and knowledge of supply chain 4.0 and Industry 4.0 in the context of sustainability. Literature shows that Industry 4.0 has a significant impact on the sustainability of the supply chain network. This paper also explains the different technologies of Industry 4.0, contributing to the sustainability of the supply chain in business. A total of 55 papers are reviewed in this study. We proposed a framework that identifies the effect of Industry 4.0 technologies on the supply chain. This research study used the systematic literature review methodology in Industry 4.0 and supply chain sustainability. The data was collected from (ScienceDirect, IEEE Xplore, and Google Scholar) databases. The Prisma framework was used to select articles for this study and only journal papers were selected for reviewing the literature. This study’...

Methods: Based on this, a trapezoidal fuzzy SWARA-COPRAS method is proposed to select coal transportation companies. The trapezoidal fuzzy SWARA method is used to determine the index weight of coal transportation companies. The ranking of coal transportation companies is determined using the trapezoidal fuzzy COPRAS method. Results: Taking a coal production and marketing enterprise in Hubei, China as an example, the application of the trapezoidal fuzzy SWARA-COPRAS method is illustrated, and the coal transportation companies are sorted and analyzed for sensitivity. Conclusions: Compared with the results of other methods, the effectiveness and practicability of the trapezoidal fuzzy SWARA-COPRAS method are verified.

This is due to globalization, environmental concerns, and customer requirements, which have asserted industries’ concerns for reverse logistics management. In E-commerce, the process of reverse logistics originates with parcel refusal, undelivered goods, and exchanges. In developing countries like Pakistan, the adoption and implications of reverse logistics are still at their early stages. E-commerce companies give more attention to forward logistics and ignore logistics’ upstream flow in the supply chain. This study aims to identify, as well as list, the barriers and obtain the solutions to those identified barriers, and rank the barriers and their solutions so that logisticians and experts can solve them as per their priority. From the extensive literature review and experts’ opinions, we have found 14 barriers in...

The key success factor for an e-commerce business is product delivery, and the third-party logistics service provider is responsible for that. Each 3PLP has its own business characteristics, meaning it is important to select the most suitable logistics provider for the e-commerce business. This study uses a combination of grey relational analysis (GRA) and the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method, assisting decision makers in choosing the best logistics service provider for their e-business. A case study of an e-commerce company based in Faisalabad, Pakistan, was selected to demonstrate the steps of the proposed methods. In this process, seven criteria of logistics suppliers were considered, and then the best alternatives among four logistics provider companie...
