  2. Logistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistics

    A warehouse in South Jersey, a U.S. East Coast epicenter for logistics and warehouse construction outside Philadelphia, where trucks deliver slabs of granite [1]. Logistics is the part of supply chain management that deals with the efficient forward and reverse flow of goods, services, and related information from the point of origin to the point of consumption according to the needs of customers.

  3. Logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_function

    The standard logistic function is the logistic function with parameters =, =, =, which yields = + = + = / / + /.In practice, due to the nature of the exponential function, it is often sufficient to compute the standard logistic function for over a small range of real numbers, such as a range contained in [−6, +6], as it quickly converges very close to its saturation values of 0 and 1.

  4. Order processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_processing

    A warehouse may also need to support alternate picking strategies due to physical layout or product distribution; for example, if some products are only sold by pallet and require special lifting equipment, those pallet-orders might be batched or processed differently that the rest of the products which might be piece-picked — alternatively ...

    Delivery lead time is the blue bar, manufacturing time is the whole bar, the green bar is the difference between the two. Order fulfilment (in American English: order fulfillment) is in the most general sense the complete process from point of sales enquiry to delivery of a product to the customer.

  7. Design for logistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_for_logistics

    Design for logistics is a series of concepts in the field of supply chain management involving product and design approaches that help to control logistics costs and increase customer service level. These concepts were introduced by Professor Hau Lee of Stanford University , and have the three key components: Economic packaging and ...

  8. Logistic distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_distribution

    The probability density function is the partial derivative of the cumulative distribution function: (;,) = (;,) = / (+ /) = (() / + / ()) = ⁡ ().When the location parameter μ is 0 and the scale parameter s is 1, then the probability density function of the logistic distribution is given by

  9. Generalised logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalised_logistic_function

    The generalized logistic function or curve is an extension of the logistic or sigmoid functions. Originally developed for growth modelling, it allows for more flexible S-shaped curves. The function is sometimes named Richards's curve after F. J. Richards, who proposed the general form for the family of models in 1959.
