Logistics is a key enabler of supply chain collaboration, thus minutely optimized processes in this field allow supply chains to increase their efficiency respectively. Considering the fact that approximately 80% of world trade currently travels by sea, maritime logistics takes a very significant role in the logistics chain and global economy; efficient transportation, handling and storage processes as well as linked information processes in this field lead to more successful supply chain solutions. In this context an important task of process optimization is to find innovative methods and approaches which enhance logistic structures and supply chains for a better and more efficient fulfillment of customer needs. This volume, edited by Thorsten Blecker, Carlos Jahn, and Wolfgang Kersten, provides a valuable insight into: - current approaches in transport and container logistics, - hi-performance maritime logistics, - innovative IT solutions, and - optimized processes for logistics service providers. This volume appeals to researchers and practitioners alike, who are interested in current contributions by international authors, providing theoretical, empirical, and case-study oriented background and information on their research work.
