Abstract:
This paper addresses some issues that arise in the planning and design of logistics systems when the environment in which they are to be operated cannot be modeled accurately with certainty. The paper describes the analytical difficulties introduced by explicitly considering uncertainty, and suggests possible modeling steps that may result in more efficient, uncertainty-friendly plans.
