Dear readers! In September the CeMAT RUSSIA exhibition was held, which showed everyone that innovations and robotics are increasingly penetrating the logistics industry. We can safely say that many technologies are tested here, and only then they go out into the world. However, it is not only CeMAT RUSSIA that demonstrates the prevalence of the digital agenda.
Dear readers! This is the ninth issue of the journal, which turned out to be very rich and diverse. Traditionally, the issue is opened by an analyst. The material by Alina Nasyrova from the Market Guide Agency, dedicated to investments in warehouse complexes in Russia, recalls the importance of developing logistics infrastructure for the integrated development of regions.
Dear readers! We present to your attention the eighth issue of the magazine and its materials.
Annotation. The article offers a mathematical model of cargo movement along the selected section of the national logistics system, which shows how to calculate the damage caused by the impact of adverse events in the process of cargo transportation on a specific section of the chain. The model estimates the amount of cargo delay when moving along the selected route. Based on this, the damage can be calculated as a function of the value of delay in transit, and decisions can also be made to change the terms of contracts and conditions of transportation organization. The example of the Northern Sea Route transportation shows how the results of the model can be applied at different levels of decision-making.
Key words. Simulation model, risk, Monte Carlo methods, logistics system, mathematical modeling, national logistics system, Northern Sea Route.
