The New Ideas And Methods For The Mathematical Model Of Locating The Logistics Centre

No matter how it develops, the research of traditional theory and model of locating of logistics center is based on the logic of the planed economy, which does not match with the current market economy. With the coming of the modern market economy and the information society, that the precondition and functional purpose of the traditional locating of the logistic center have changed, which means that the pre-assumption that the capacity is given (the supply quantity is given), will be replaced by the assumption that the demands are given (the service radius of the logistics center and the customers' demands). And at the same time, the functional purpose will be translated from the realization of economic profit to that of comprehensive profit of customers' demands.In this paper, it is pointed out that there is logical defect in the above conception, and at the same time, presented a new logic conception for the locating of logistic center, based on the idea that productivity should be determined by demands, which will completely change the previous point tha the locating of centers is determined by the capacity at first (in the planed economy, supply used to be more cared about than customers' demands), and make the locating of logistics centers more suitable in the modern market. The new locating model is based on the pre-restrict term of the maximization of profits or the minimization of cost and pre-assumption that the customer demand radius and demand distribution are given, and it makes the storage capacity a flexible parameter related to the market demands and thus to change thoroughly the planned economy logics that the address is located firstly according to the storage capacity. In this way, the locating of the logistics center can truly respond with the modern marketing and meet the customers' demands.
