“…By promoting the creation of delivery channels (Luo et al, 2021), PI aims to reduce the fragmentation of logistics services by sharing logistics assets and resources, in order to significantly improve the efficiency of logistic activities. Also, the PI-enabled information sharing plays a vital role in the intelligent planning, coordination and control of logistics services (Kong et al, 2018). As a result, PI can be seen as an important way to achieve the goals of sustainable development, especially in reducing its environmental footprint (Lafkihi et al, 2019).…”

PurposeToday's logistics industry is facing severe challenges since global transportation demand increases substantially. Carriers are urged to reduce empty loads and CO2 emissions through collaboration. Therefore, the concept of Physical Internet (PI) came into being. However, PI is still in its infancy. It is difficult to understand its sophisticated coordination mechanism, which makes learning of the concept more complicated.Design/methodology/approachGamification is an effective approach to help students improve their learning curve. At the same time, the psychological and behavioral changes in learning will also pose an impact on learning efficiency. This paper introduces a PI transportation game and designs a set of gamification teaching experiments. In the experiment, a control group and three experimental groups are set up, and the experiment was designed to respond to a plethora of research questions using the methods of T-test, correlation analysis and regression analysis. Experimental results were analyzed through the method of multivariate statistics.FindingsThis paper looks for superior pedagogical methods and procedures for students to learn PI while providing suggestions for PI's learning among undergraduates. The authors found (1) gamification teaching will make participants feel more satisfied and master more knowledge points; (2) the scores of logistics testing have been significantly improved after gamification teaching and (3) flow experience has a significant impact on game revenue.Originality/valueThis is the first study about the impact of gamification on teaching and learning PI. The authors apply the methods of T-test, correlation analysis and regression analysis to analyze the collected data. The paper proves that gamification can help students learn PI and that flow experience can improve the efficiency of students learning PI.

(Nadler and Kros, 2010;Kong et al, 2017;Kong, Huang, Luo and Yen, 2018) used auction mechanism to solve some problems in the supply chain and logistics. Zheng and Geroliminis (2016) proposed Stackelberg equilibrium which is investigated in a competitive behavior between different parking facility operators.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to design a parking space management platform to alleviate the parking problem and a two-stage solution for sharing and allocating parking spaces. Design/methodology/approach The market design mechanism and auction mechanism are integrated to solve the problem of parking space sharing and allocation. In the first stage, the market design mechanism with two rules is applied for making the good use of idle parking spaces. In the second stage, two sequential auction mechanisms are designed by extending first/second-price sealed bid auction mechanism to allocate both private and public parking spaces, which are received in previous stage and owned by the platform. Two stages are connected through a forecasted price which is calculated through the exponential smoothing method. Findings First, we prove three important properties of the proposed sequential auction mechanisms, namely, incentive compatibility, revenue equivalence and individual rationality. Second, a simulation study is used to verify the effectiveness of the mechanisms through numerical analysis. The impact of the system on three parts, namely, agents (private parking space suppliers), bidders (parking space customers) and the platform, is examined. Third, the results show that the sharing mechanism with monetrary incentive will attract a number of agents to join in the platform. The bidders are also able to obtain considerable utility, as compared with the (average) market parking fees. The platform can thus effectively allocate parking spaces with reasonable prices. Originality/value This paper combines the classical sequential auction mechanisms with the market design mechanism for the parking space sharing and allocation problem. The modeling and analysis method can also be used to address the similar allocation and pricing problems of other resources like bicycle sharing.

The integration of Information Technology in fish marketing has become a neglected issue in North Sumatera, Indonesia. As located in the Malacca Strait and the Indian Ocean, the territorial waters of North Sumatra expect to bring many benefits to both community and government in the fisheries sector. Marketing as the part of a business to interact the producers and consumers is required to achieve optimal utilization in managing fisheries catches for marine products Marketing Mix as the tactical marketing tools can be applied into IT applications and tools. Promotion, Product, Place, Price, Process, People and Physical Evidence as the 7Ps of Marketing Mix has been touched by the fashion of this technology. This paper proposed five stages should carry out to fulfil an IT–integration fish marketing. Literature review and concepts regarding the relationship between IT tools and fish marketing are critically assessed.
