Sponsored by Southwest Jiaotong University; the Transportation and Development Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 213 selected papers that discuss technical, managerial, and policy issues across the transport industry, the warehousing industry, the freight forwarding industry, and the information industry. Although the prolonged global economic slowdown has affected economic growth in China, the nation's logistics industry continued to improve, especially in the e-commerce market. China's logistics sector faces problems in technology and management, such as a lack of standards and uniformity, relatively high and inconsistent tax rates on logistics services, and excessive roadway and bridge tolls. Topics include: green logistics and emergency logistics; industrial economics and finance of logistics; intelligent logistics and transportation; logistics information systems and technology; logistics risk management and safety technology; logistics strategy and industrial policy; multimodal transport; regional and international logistics; and supply chain management and logistics. These papers, written by transportation professionals in China and other parts of the world, offer solutions to problems in logistics.
