Description:

Wide global market industry competition and customer product quality requirements

are key factors that have forced engineers and economists to improve their

operational decisions by integrating production, transport and service operations.

A common logistics perspective dealing with a proper coordination of all material

movements and processing activities drives the reader through different chapters

of this book. The specific application areas, in which simulation techniques are

applied, demonstrate that improving key performance indicators of a real system

requires not only addressing its technical aspects, but also designing tactical and

operating procedures that would provide both the operational efficiency and economical

practicality.
