توسعه هماهنگ میان اقتصاد شهری و تدارکات برای پایداری

Logistics sustainability plays a critical role in our daily life since logistics involves in large number of resources such as manpower, transportation vehicles, warehouses, and products which should be sustainably leveraged. One possible way to achieve the sustainability is to make the coordinated development of logistics and economy. Due to the complexity of the logistics industry, better coordination among all relevant parties are challenging. The purpose of this research is to analyze the key factors on the coordinated development between metropolitan economy and logistics. This paper uses a Bayesian Network to examine their impacts. Several contributions are significant. Firstly, it is observed that the coordinated development of metropolitan economy and logistics heavily relies on their development levels as their posterior probability values are both over 80%. Secondly, two causation chains greatly affected the coordinated development are found. Scientific value of this research is that special attentions should be paid to key factors like logistics infrastructure investment, the development level of logistics industry, basic research and development level, and the technological development level within the chains when carrying out sustainable decision-makings.
