“…Awasthi et al [4] have mentioned accessibility, security, cost, quality of service and so forth in locating urban distribution centers. Roh et al [20] proposed location, logistics, national stability, cost and cooperation for locating logistic warehouses. They determined the relative importance of each of these criteria by AHP.…”

“…Finally, the upward ranking values rank + ( ), the mirrored downward ranking values rank 0 ( ), the results of the real downward ranking values rank − ( ), and the final ranking values rank( ) calculated by (8) and (9) are all shown in Table 4. According to the ranking results in Table 4, it can be indicated that 4 is the best befitting place for the location of relief supplies warehouse evaluated on the five criteria, 6 would be accorded the next highest priority to be developed, and 3 is indicated to be the worst one chosen in the evaluation.…”

“…The objective of disaster response in the humanitarian relief chain is to rapidly provide relief to minimize human suffering and death [4] and preparedness increases the ability of relief organizations to mobilize relief supplies and deliver aid quickly [5]. Among the different forms of preparedness for disaster relief management, prepositioning of emergency warehouses is considered to be the best for maximizing the effectiveness of humanitarian aid supply chains [6]. Prepositioning in strategic locations around the world is a strategy that has been implemented by humanitarian relief organizations to improve their capacities in delivering sufficient relief aid within a relatively short timeframe and with improved mobilization [5].…”

China is one of the disaster-prone countries in the world. Constructing a rapid and effective relief logistic system is important for disaster-responding at country level. Strategic prepositioning of emergency items, especially the decision of appropriate emergency warehouses location, has significant impacts on rapid disaster response to ensure sufficient relief supplies. The emergency warehouse location decision is a complex problem, where a wide variety of criteria need to be considered and the preference information of decision makers (DMs) may be imprecise or even absent. In this paper, we identify key effectiveness-oriented criteria used to evaluate the alternative emergency warehouse locations and make an attempt to propose a new multicriteria ranking method to solve the problem of inaccurate or uncertain weight information based on stochastic pairwise dominant relations and the pruning procedure of ELECTRE-II method. The proposed method extends the conventional ELECTRE-II method by incorporating inaccurate information and broadens its application to emergency warehouse location field. The feasibility and applicability of the proposed method are illustrated with a simulated example.

Abstract-In this paper, we conduct research on the modern logistics warehouse management system. Enterprise supplies all activities were around to ensure that production and other tasks planned to finish the fundamental goal, therefore, on the one hand to accounting supplies must dosage, on the other hand to organize the material resource, including the enterprise internal resources and purchased from external resources. To make the enterprise production and the other activities can properly and efficiently, objective demand supplies need to coordinate between cohesion and material resources, to supplies comprehensive balance work. Under this circumstance, we implement the system with the theoretical analysis to enhance the performance of the traditional ones.
