The Importants of Clustering in Logistic Systems

Abstract

Nowadays, the development of higher efficient processes and procedures is the key for success in industrial environment. The companies have machines, production lines, software and hardware tools with high level principles of efficient working. Example: the Industry 4.0 concept use the machines and methods of the near past, upgrade them, and gave them new purpose, as a more efficient tool. Some of the bases of those tools are not as efficient as which many would think, like in group generating or in other word clustering. Clustering is a very hard process, and it is in almost every decision making in every company’s lives. It is important to sometimes examine its significance and flaws. This paper presents the clustering briefly and shows its errors through an example.

Improving the Logistics of Institutional Postal Services

“…The described method makes it possible to support also managerial decisions. Potential research direction is the improvement of the facility location with clustering methods [28]. Other research direction is the analysis of potential required maintenance processes and related costs [29].…”

Introductory Chapter: Disciplinarity Aspects in Green Supply Chain Design and Operation

“…His research shows, that transdisciplinarity is important not only in the research but in the early phase of education. The different research approaches using intra-, multi-, cross, trans-or interdisciplinarity are used in a wide range of research topics: weather forecast and disaster risk reduction [18], fault diagnosis in engineering [19], medicine [20], logistics [21,22], supply chain management and transportation [23,24], robotisation and mechatronics [25,26], earth sciences [27], and information sciences [28].…”
