摘要
Logistics supply chain system management is the integration of key business processes from end user through original logistics suppliers that provides products, services, and information that add value for customers and other stakeholders. Logistics supply chain is a network of suppliers, factories, warehouses, distribution centers and retailers where the raw materials are acquired, manufactured to products, which then are delivered to consumers. The increase of customer expectations in low cost and high services quality has put a premium on effective logistics supply chain reengineering. Many efforts have been endeavoring to improve the supply chain performance to achieve high agility without increasing costs For improved competitiveness, supply chain logistics system in the industry has become more and more important for modern businesses, especially for the major retailing corporations. Multi-agent system which can effectively process distributed large scale data is developed for the logistics supply chain coordinate system.
