Logistics simulation is to model the logistics system, compile the corresponding application program on the computer, simulate the actual logistics system, and make statistics and analysis on the simulation results to guide the planning, design and operation management of the actual logistics system. The modeling methods used in logistics simulation include queuing theory, Petri net, linear programming and so on. In China, logistics simulation technology is still a relatively new concept, and most enterprises don't know much about its application and significance.
main feature
No matter whether the actual logistics system exists or not, the physical data can be input into the simulation system by establishing the system research model, and the information output close to the actual logistics system can be generated through data operation and graphic simulation. The simulation test has good controllability, non-destructive and repeatability. The simulation process is economical and safe, and is not limited by meteorological conditions and site environment. The real-time nature of simulation makes the simulation application of real-time system possible and lays a good foundation for simulation application. The simulation process of logistics simulation software is the process of establishing the model of logistics system, testing and resting the model through the operation of the model on the computer, and making the model tend to be perfect. Logistics simulation software is mainly used for the simulation of internal production logistics, warehousing, transportation and distribution process, logistics consulting and logistics specialty in colleges and universities. With the development of logistics, the logistics system has become more and more complex, and its internal relevance has become stronger and stronger. Simulation has become an important means for enterprises to test whether their logistics systems and decisions are effective. In addition, enterprises need to apply logistics simulation technology and simulation software to design a new logistics system, or add new technology and equipment to the existing system to transform the original system. In China, logistics simulation technology is still a relatively new concept, and most enterprises are familiar with its application and significance.
Logistics simulation modeling of production system
Simulation method of logistics system
Logistics systems are mostly discrete complex large-scale systems, which contain many constraints and factors, and it is difficult to reach the optimal state. Traditional operational research methods can not effectively solve the established models, while simulation technology has its unique advantages and characteristics in solving these problems. Therefore, in order to maximize the value potential of logistics system and improve the efficiency and profit of enterprises, many experts and scholars have done a lot of research in the field of logistics system simulation.
