A Modern Logistics And Transport Management Systems Design And Implementation

It introduces that the basic knowledge of modern logistics and application of transportation management system. It gives a picture of the design and implement of a real TMS, which is developed by Bleum Software Outsourcing and RedPrairie. It emphasizes on the realization of the strategic algorithm for optimal move planning and the information management for 3PL transportation.First, it gives an idea of the summary and importance of the modern logistics and. transportation management. Then, it describes the requirements and main framework design of a Transportation Management System (TMS). After that, it introduces some transportation strategic algorithms and functional modules I have participated in. Finally, it gives some brief improvement of the software system for local corporations.The following content is the main ideas of this thesis:1. It explains the importance and requirements of transportation management for modern logistics2. It describes the main framework design of the advanced Transportation Management System3. It analyses and realizes some transportation strategic algorithms, such as the route choosing and the carrier choosing.4. It implements some pivotal modules in the Transportation Management System, like Order Maintenance, Facility Maintenance, Carrier and Rating Maintenance and Move Plan Maintenance.
