Abstract :
Based on the general features of an agile supply chain, the article points out that the requirement on the corresponding agile logistics system is that it should have the agility to be dynamically recombined. And on the back of this, the article also proposes to use the logistic capacities to describe the resources of a logistics system. The article goes further to propose that the recombination of logistics cells can be used to dynamically recombine a logistics system. On the basis of analyzing the general qualitative principles on the recombination of logistics cells, the article has used two quantitative variables to effectively construct the object function for the recombination of a logistics system, so as to convert the recombination of a logistics system into an issue dealing with a multi-object system and its optimization.
