电子商务物流配送外文文献译文及原文Increased competitiveness in all industrial sectors sharpened by globalization and fall of global supply is forcing companies towards optimization of their business processes and new ways of mergers or partnerships with direct results in decreased business costs. With these strategic alliances new management strategies are formed as Clusters, Supply Chain Management (SCM), E-logistics, etc. Some authors are making references that logistic are “worth” 10% to 12% of GDP (Sahay, 2003). According to AMR research (Challenger, 2001), E-logistics has apotential of lowering costs by 10 %. On basics of these two references we can conclude that E-logistics can save our money for as much as 1.2% of GDP. Therefore it is not surprised that in last few years in high effective companies as Hewlett-Packard, Compaq, Digital Equipment Corporation, Xerox, Dell and Benetton Group top management is favorable to Supply Chain and therefore E-logistics (Romano, 2003).There is collection of literature indicating the importance ofclusters and networks not only between firms, but along the value chain and across industries. The networks inherent in these clusters are integral for knowledge generation and diffusion, for technology transfer, for sharing risk and costs, for allowing firms to access new markets and opportunities and, finally, for building comparative advantage in the global market.Porter (Porter, 1990) defines clusters as geographic concentrations of interconnected companies, specialized suppliers, service providers, firms in related industries, and associated institutions. He proposed a model that provides conditions that have to be met for a firm to be internationally competitive and successful. This model focuses on four primary conditions which he arranged in a diamond-shaped diagram: factor conditions, demand conditions, structures of firms and rivalry and related and supporting industries. The "Related and Supporting Industries" feature of the diamond denotes the importance of clustering in developing international competitive advantage incorporating two features of a healthy cluster: the presence of vertical support through internationally competitive supplier industries which ensure cost-effective and speedy deliveries; and the presence of horizontal support in internationally competitive related industries to co-ordinate and share activities with and to stimulate local competition.In the article informatization of STLC will be presented through the project Modeling, Analyzing and Renovation, Standardization and Informatization of business processes of the Slovenian Transport Logistics Cluster which is performed by Business Informatics Institutein Faculty of Economics, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia. With informatization have logistic compani es’ not just better connectivity with their customers and suppliers but also better performance andfaster responds. To achieve appropriate level of informatization STLC must invest in modern information technologies. One of possiblesolutions is use of internet with his costless policy and in last years high security as the most appropriate communication channel.For all logistic companies it is assumed to control global logistic chain of their customers and therefore are dependent on successful implementation of informatization technologies which leads to decrease of inventory costs, better customer retention, asset management, etc.增加对全球化和全球供应下降削尖所有工业部门的竞争力,迫使他们对优化业务流程和兼并或在降低经营成本的直接成果的伙伴关系的新途径公司。

外文翻译原文Material Source:AnAnalysis on the Relationship between Modem Logistics andE-commerceAuthor:AnonymousAbstractBecause of its importance to the circulation of commodities, modern logistics has become the focus of the governments and enterprises. On the other hand, e-commerce has brought immense impact to the traditional commodity circulation with its brand-new style of commercial activities, and has become an essential subject for enterprises both in production and in circulation. This paper tries to sum up the characteristics of modern logistics and e-commerce, and analyze the inter-dependent, inter-contributive relationship between modern logistics and e-commerce.Keywords-modern logistics; e-commerce; relationshipI. CHARACTERISTICS OF MODERN LOGISTICSA. ScientificityAfter the development stages from Physical Distribution and Logistics to 3PL (Third Party Logistics) and 4PL (Fourth Party Logistics), modern logistics has grown into a new branch of science. As a young branch, logistics has always been absorbing nutrients from other branches, adopting theories of other branches such as distribution management, transportation management, material management and many others. Modern logistics forms a relatively independent branch of science, meanwhile is inter-related to the branches of marketing, operational management, supply chain management ande-commerce, hence contributes to the development of the whole ofthe management science.B. SystematizationThe systematization of logistics owes to the application of systematic science in logistics management. Modern logistics arranges various logistic activities of a company from the perspective of a system and deals with the relationship between logistic activities and company goals as well as theinter-relationship between different logistic activities. It pursues the optimizationofthe activities as a whole rather than any individual activity.Accuracy of scheduleThe upper products must fulfill the demands of the lower products within the required time span. Besides the quality and quantity, more emphasis is laid on the schedule. The production shall be neither ahead of nor behind the schedule. There shall not be any unreasonable storage whether after theupper production or before the lower production. The basis for the accuracy of schedule is the high-quality logistic management. Logistics is the key for an accurate schedule of production. Modern logistics must satisfy therequirement in the accuracy ofproduction schedule.D. Specialization and industrializationThe specialization of logistics includes two aspects: On one hand, logistics management usually occurs in an enterprise as a specialized department and carries out specialized functions. On the other hand, specialized logistics companies spring up in the whole society, providing various logistic services and growing more specified in the variety of services. This specialized development contributes to the occurrence of numerous logistics companies. The large-scale development of these companies leads to the establishment of some leading companies in the market. The extensive development of logistics consequently brings the related research and estimation system. Logistics has grown into an industry that impacts considerable influence on GDP. In the developed countries logistics has become a separate industry.II. E-COMMERCE IN THE MARKET ECONOMYA. E-commerce in the information ageE-commerce enables the enterprise or individual who has mastered information technology and business rules to make systematic use of the internet and other electronic tools in conducting business activities with higher efficiency and lower cost. From the perspectives of application and function, e-commerce can be divided into three stages, i.e. 3S (show, sale, serve).1) Show: refers to the display of electronic business information. The enterprise could either display its products and other information in its web page or through the ads on the internet. Through the stage of "show", the enterprise could establish its image, improve its reputation, publicize its services, and find new business partners.2) Sale: The complete process of traditional transaction is carried out in anelectronic way through the internet, for example, the internet shop. At this stage the enterprise could accomplish the whole process of transaction, enlarge the scope of business, improve the working efficiency, lower the business cost, and obtain both economic and social benefits.3) Serve: The enterprise conducts a series of pre-sales and after-sales services related to its business activities through the internet. Through this on-line service, the enterprise could perfect its e-commerce system, consolidate its original customers and attract new ones. The business of the enterprise could be expanded, and the benefit of the enterprise could reach its best.B. The function ofe-commerce1) The basic principle of e-commerce is to make the communication of commercial information complete, prompt, accurate, safe, reliable, and economized in both finance and human resource. E-commerce could conduct paperless trade, considerably reduce the consumption of paper and other stationery utensils during the business transactions, and save a substantial number of natural resources. Electronic tools couldrecord business data with magnetic or laser disks instead of paper.2)E-commerce helps to achieve the optimization in the distribution of commodities and materials. The transportation efficiency could be improved and the cost be lowered. Electronic distribution becomes possible. For example, some electronic information products could be sent through the internet.3)E-commerce makes the e-cash a necessity. It interacts with the electronic finance, and substantially reduces the burden in the production, storage, circulation and management of traditional cash. An obvious benefit of the interaction between e-cash and e-commerce is the reduction of cash circulation.4)E-commerce contributes to the formation of unified market, circulation and business on a national scale. Electronic network could break through the regional boundaries and limits, diminish the differences between rural and urban areas, optimize the distribution of production elements, and greatly save the material and energy resources.5)E-commerce helps the direct communication between the market and the producers as well as between the producers and the consumers. The producers could simulate the market to find suitable products, hence improve the economic efficiency.III. THE INTER-DEPENDENT AND INTERACTIVE DEVELOPMENTRELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MODERN LOGISTICS ANDE-COMMERCEA. The close integration ofe-commerce and modern logistics Along with the spread of the internet, e-commerce is in a rapid developing momentum. This in return quickens the steps of the globalization of the world economy, and makes the role of international logistics more important in the whole business activities. E-commerce brings tremendous demands for logistics and pushes the further development of logistics. Logistics is contributing to the development of e-commerce as well. Therefore the two fields are inter-dependent. In practice, an enterprise with prosperous e-commerce activities also has sophisticated logistics technology and superb logistic services. On the contrary, many e-commerce companies are having a hard time or even going bankrupt because of the lack of proper logistic services.B. Modern logistics is the unity ofthe currencies of goods, information, capital and human resources Under the condition of modem logistics, the transportation of commodities has turned from the traditional single method into the optimized combination of various methods. Thisbrings along higher transportation efficiency, shorter transfer time, quicker circulation of commodities, lower transportation cost, and faster realization of the commodity values. Based on the platform of modern electronic network, the modern information circulation transfers logistics information at greatly improved speed, saving time for the customers andoptimizing the chains and methods of goods transportation. The fast-paced commodity circulation and the advanced information system is the basis of modern logistics. They could efficiently reduce the occupation of floating capital, accelerate the capital turnover, and fully exert the incrementfunction ofthe capital. The unity of the circulation of goods, information and capital depend on the planning and conduct of high-quality logistics personnel. Modern logistics is the systematic engineering that transcends the boundaries of industries, departments, regions and even countries. It requires the compound-type personnel who have mastered related modemknowledge. Enterprises shall pay attention to the introduction of excellent logistics personnel, meanwhile to the cultivation of them in practical operations in order to form a team of logistics management that could fulfill the demands of modem industries.C. Modern logistics contributes to the growth ofe-commerce1)Logistics is the guarantee for production. The circulation of commodities is not possible without production, whether in traditional business or in e-commerce, and the fluency of production needs the support of logistic activities.Modem logistics ensures the high efficiency of modem production by reducing the cost through lower fees, optimizing storage structure, diminishing occupation of capital and shortening the production cycle. Production would be impossible without modem logistics. Neither coulde-commerce finish any transaction without modern logistics, though e-commerce is notable for its convenience.2)Logistics services in commodity circulation. In commodity circulation, the ownership of the commodity is transferred to the buyer since the moment of signing the purchasing contract, but the commodity itself is not transferredimmediately. Under e-commerce, the consumer completes the business transaction through a click on the internet, hence finishes the course of commodity transaction. But the activity of e-commerce is not finished yet. The business activity could only be declared as "finished" when the commodity or the service is actually transferred to the consumer personally. During the whole course of e-commerce transaction, logistics in fact continues the commodity circulation and is the service provider. There would be no healthy commodity circulation without the support ofmodern logistics.3)Third-party logistics pattern stimulates the development of e-commerce. The third-party logistics is a style in which the logistics service is carried out by a third party other than the supplier and the buyer. It is an important pattern of logistics specialization resulted from the development of logistics industry reaching a rather advanced stage. According to the growth of the sophisticated western logistics, the formation of a separate logistics industry requires a constituent of 50% third-party logistics. Therefore the situation of the third-party logistics reflects the standard of the logistics development in a country. There are three valuable points in the western practice of logistics: First, when the logistics business grows to a large scale, business establishments and big companies are facing with fiercer competition. They usually focus on their core business, leaving transportation and storage to more specialized logistics companies. Meanwhile the logistics companies provide efficient package services in order to expand their business.Second, many successful logistics companies will analyze the cost of self-operation and agent-operation according to the contract terms of the first party and the second party, and flexibly choose between self-operation and agent-operation, providing fluent logistics services. And third, along with the fast growing of e-commerce, the substantial of logistics has been stimulated and has a bright future.IV. CONCLUSIONWith the spread of the internet, the application of e-commerce is in a fast-growing momentum. Modem logistics is more closely integrated with e-commerce. E-commerce has pushed the further development of modem logistics, and the latter is also contributing to the former. It has been proved that an enterprise with prosperous e-commerce must have sophisticated logistics technology and excellent logistics service. On the contrary, the lack of prompt logistics services will send e-commerce enterprises into hardship and even bankruptcy. E-commerce and modern logistics are in the trend of mutual dependence and mutual contribution.译文资料来源:电子商务和现代物流的关系分析作者:佚名摘要由于现代商品经济的重要性,物流也成为政府和企业发展的重点。

外文文献及译文文献、资料题目:Electronic Commerce外文文献:Electronic CommerceElectronic commerce, or Electronic trade, or electronic business as a newly rising mode of commerce will have far-reaching influence on social economy and play an important role in social development worldwide. It represents the trend of world trade in the 21st century and beyond.1. What is Electronic Commerce?Electronic commerce refers to commercial data exchange in digital form through electronic transmission means and commercial activities conducted on-line. Usually, electronic commerce can be divided into two levels: One is low-level electronic commerce that is, electronic commercial intelligence, electronic trade, and electronic contracts. Another is high-level electronic commerce which includes all commercial activities done via Internet, ranging from searching for clients, commercial negotia-tion, making orders, on-line payment, releasing electronic invoice, to electronic dec-laration to Customs, electronic tax-payment, all conducted on Internet.Electronic commerce means electrification of all trade transactions. It is featured by these characters: ①fairness and freedom, ②high efficiency, ③globalization, ④virtualization, ⑤interactivity, ⑥autonomy, ⑦personalized service. With electronic commerce, clients andsuppliers can closely and conveniently contact with each other on a global scale, so that clients can find satisfactory suppliers from all comers of the world to meet their demands.Electronic commerce will change the environment in which enterprises compete with each other and reduce costs which would otherwise be high in traditional market structure. Low costs in transactions, convenience in market entry and government encouragement to use Internet (exemption from tax) activate electronic commerce and boost it to develop rapidly right from its beginning. As experts predicted, by 2000, electronic commerce would reach a scale of 300billion US dollars worldwide. And it has exceeded this scale.To ensure security of electronic commerce, an electronic certification center should be established. Digital ID is used to validate identity. Digital 11 is trusted to a third party, namely, an authorized agency, to release, including identifying informa-tion of the holder (name, address, liaison way, ID card number), an encryptive key for common use by the both parties, period of validity, password and identification in-formation of the authorized agency, etc. With digital ID, both parties in transactions can be assured of identifying the other party and validate that the information sent out from the other party has not been subject to alteration.2. Influence That Electronic Commerce May HaveCompared with traditional commerce, electronic commerce has superiorities as follows *Extensive coverage. A network system combining Internet, Intranet (local area network inside enterprises) and Extranet (networks outside enterprises) enables buy-ers, sellers, manufacturers and their partners to contact with each other and conven-iently transmit commercial intelligence and documents worldwide.*Complete functions. In electronic commerce, users of different types and on dif-ferent tiers can realize different targets in trade, for example, releasing commercial intelligence,on-line negotiation, electronic payment, establishment of virtual com-mercial market place and on-line banking, etc.*Convenience and flexibility in use.. Based on Internet, electronic commerce is free from restriction by specialized protocol for data exchange. Transactions can be conducted conveniently on computer screen, by using any type of PCs, at any place around the world.*Low cost. Use of electronic commerce can cut down costs for hiring employees, maintaining warehouse and storefront, expense for international travel and postage to a great extent. The cost for using Internet is very low.Electronic commerce will have substantial influence on social economy:*Electronic commerce will change the way people used to take in commercial ac-tivities. Through networks, people can enter virtual stores and browse around, select what they are interested in, and enjoy various on-line services. On the other hand, merchants can contact with consumers through networks, decide on buying in goods (categories and quantities) and perform settlement of accounts. Government agencies can perform electronic tendering and pursue government purchase through networks.*The core of electronic commerce is people. It is a social system. On-line shop-ping changes the way of people's daily life and fully embodies autonomy of consum-ers in trade.*Electronic commerce changes the way enterprises produce their goods. Through networks, manufacturers know market demand directly and make arrangement of production, in accordance with consumers' need.*Electronic commerce dramatically raises efficiency of trade. Intermediate links can be cut down; costs for sales will be reduced to minimum. Production can be ar-ranged in "small batches plus diverse varieties", and "zero stock" will be reality.*Electronic commerce calls for reformation of banking services. New concepts like on-line bank, on-line cash card and credit card, on-line settlement of accounts, electronic invoice, electronic "cash"-consumers will no longer use the real cash when shopping-will become reality.*Electronic commerce will change government behavior. Called "on-line gov-ernment", an on-line administration plays the important role of a social channel, maintaining order and fairness and detecting and cracking down on-line fraud.3. The Present Situation of Electronic Commerce in Developed CountriesIn the mid-1990s, when Internet experienced explosive development and micro-computers entered homes in great numbers, computer networks became an indispen-sable part of people's daily life. People expect for more interests and convenience brought in by computer networks. Electronic Commerce emerged just in time. In de-veloped countries, governments timely made policies to boost electronic commerce to practical use and dominant position in a new round of worldwide competition.In 1998, Internet helped the United States to create productive out put of 507 bil-lion US dollars, national income of 301 billion US dollars, and 1. 2 million job op-portunities; of these, electronic commerce created an income of 100 billion US dollars. Internet has be-come the first big industry with yearly productive output increasing by 60%,and accounting for 6% of GDP. Service export from the United States has at-tained 160 billion US dollars each year, and it is predicted that it can compensate trade deficit in commodity trade. Internet played an important role in promoting ex-port from the United States: in 1999, books, automobiles and services were sold through electronic commerce to foreign countries, exceeding 102 billion US dollars.Advocated by the United States, 132 members of WTO decided to turn Internet into a freetrade zone within at least one-year term. Some countries and organizations scrambled to work out development framework for electronic commerce and made laws and regulations for developing electronic commerce. In 1996, the UN Confer-ence on Trade and Development passed "Model Law of Electronic Commerce". In December, 1996, the US government issued "Policy Framework for Global Electronic Commerce".In April 1997, European Union issued "Proposal for Electronic Com-merce in Europe".On July 1 1997, US President Clinton promulgated" A framework for Global Electronic Commerce" which has had great influence on global electronic commerce. In May 1998, WTO minister conference passed "A Manifesto on Global Electronic Commerce", and in September 1998, WTO general council passed "Scheme for Electronic Commerce Work".In October 1998, UN Organization of Economy and Cooperation &Development (OECD) held minister conference at Ottawa, Canada on electronic commerce, which is praised as a milestone of global electronic commerce. In September 1999, Global Business Dialog on Electronic Commerce (GBDE) was held in France and is-sued "Paris Proposal".In December 1999, the United States issued another Internet commerce standard.Electronic commerce in the United States takes the rein of the trade in the world. At present, there are 60 million subscribers of Internet in the United States. More than 98% of purchasing managers seek targets on-line. As estimated, by 2002, the value involved in transactions done through electronic commerce between US enterprises will account for 6.1% of GDP. Fortune magazine's statistics show the 500 top com-panies in the world all engaged in on-line business.25% of income to IBM (about 20 billion US dollars) is related with electronic commerce. Thanks to electronic com-merce, IBM saved its expenses of 250 million US dollars during 1999. HP Company designated its electronic Commerce solution as E-world-anelectronized world. This solution is oriented to medium-and small-size enterprises, and great investment was made to third parties-software companies to develop software suited for medium-and small-size enterprises to engage in electronic commerce. Intel places its risky invest-ment mainly on Internet and electronic commerce. In July 1998, Intel began on-line transactions Its monthly business turn electronic commerce reached one billion US dollars.As a survey made by European Information Technology Observation shows, of the surveyed 570 companies, 47% have implemented electronic commerce of some sorts, and 4/5 of them began their electronic commerce in the latest two years. Execu-tive Committee of European Union plans at least 25% of its purchase done through electronic commerce by 2001. In1998, in Australia, web sites related with electronic commerce on Internet doubled in number, and 11% of Australian enterprises have their web sites. 80% of Australian companies use Internet to transmit E-mails and conduct commercial activities. In 1998, Singapore government promulgated,for electronic commerce. Singapore is the only country in Southeast Asia that formally joined the "Rights and Obligation Electronic commerce In cooperation with US manufacturers and firms, Singapore established an electronic commerce entry in Asia, providing comprehensive Business-to-Business (B to B) service, so as to enable Asian trade companies to enter the rank of global electronic commerce.4. Development of Electronic Commerce in ChinaExploration in electronic commerce, governmental and civil began in 1993 in China. Today, electronic commerce has found its applications in foreign trade, Cus-toms, finance and commerce. Local frameworks have been established in Beijing and Shanghai for electronic commerce. Some electronic commerce web sites have been opened to on-line shopping and on-line settlement of accounts.The Ministry of Foreign Trade set up in February 1996 China Electronic Com-merce Center responsible for research, construction, and operation of international electronic commerce project in CT he Center established "China Commodity Trade Market" on Internet, to put rich resources of goods in China to world market, opening new channel for our exports. The subject "Security Proof of Electronic Commerce" as a key item in science and technology during th9th Five-year Plan period was ap-praised in early 1996 by State Department of Science and Technology and State En-cryptive Code Administration, which laid a foundation for establishing a safe and normal environment for electronic commerce in our country.In March 1999, the Ministry of Information Industry approved the electronic commercial network of pharmaceutics and health as a model project of electronic commerce for all trades. It is one of the six specialized networks in China, which pro-vide all-direction serve of market information, product transaction, warehousing and delivery, and account settlement, etc.In Shanghai, in 1999, "Shanghai Administrative Center of Electronic Commerce Security Certificate" was set up, which provide security platform for electronic com-merce and is responsible for application, appraisal, making and management of digital certificate domestic and foreign clients in Shanghai, and offers services such as certi-fication of digital identity and digital signature, electronic notarization, secure E-mail and secure encryption, etc. In January 1 the first on-line bookstore in China-Shanghai Book City On-line standard. It provides VISA cardholders and card-holders of domestic Great Wall card, Dragon card, Peony card and Pacific card with instant and authorized security service.The measure taken in Beijing to develop electronic commerce is to build a capital electronic commerce city. In November 1998, the capital electronic commerce project formally activated, and a frame-work formally showed off. The Legend Computer Company open editselectronic commerce system in June 1999, and web sites 8848, sina, 163, all activated their electronic commerce.In April 2000, sponsored by the Ministry of Information Indus-try,National Economy and Trade Commission, and China Council for Promotion of International Trade, the 4th China International Electronic Commerce Conference was held. State leaders and superintendents of various ministries and commissions joined the opening conference. Mr. Levy, secretary of Commercial Department of the US government led a delegation of famous US enterprises and media, totally more than 100 persons, to join the conference. More than 60 seminars were held during the conference, to dis-cuss extensive topics on electronic commerce.Despite all these efforts, companies engaged in electronic commerce service in China suffer losses in their B-to-C business (B refers to Business, C refers to Con-sumers). Some Chinese experts attribute this to Chinese shopping habit-Chinese con-sumers treat shopping as an interesting hobby; they enjoy the pleasure of spending their money through appreciating and comparing merchandise, and bargaining; but all these will vanish from on-line shopping. Other experts attribute this phenomenon to the ubiquitous incredulity in society-banks can-not interconnect their business be-cause they fear their customers will be captured by their rivals; cash cards cannot be popularized because banks do not trust civilians; and civilians do not like to do on-line shopping because they do not trust on-line stores,…etc. Why?That's because many things on-line and in society are false, for ex-ample, false number of subscribers, false statistics of access flux, shoddy goods, forged diploma, sham curriculum vitae, sham investment, sham listing, false revenue to listed enterprises, etc. Such an over-all environment will not change within a long period of time. In such environment, no commercial activity can be done. Many IT practitioners are disheartened with elec-tronic commerce in our country.5. Prospects of Electronic CommerceAlthough developing rapidly and seeming to have brilliant prospects, electronic commerce faces a series of real problems, for example, problems involving security, technology, expense, legal system, tax system, conception, protection of privacy, in-frastructure, etc. However, electronic commerce is the mainstream of enterprises in the new century and will develop rapidly in the coming years. Some companies pre-dict that by 2003, electronic commerce between enterprises in developed countries will account for over 9%of the total turnover(1,300 billion US dollars), and in consumer electronic commerce the turnover will attain 76. 3 billion US dollars by 2002. And as experts predicted, electronic commerce in China will catch up with de-veloped countries on the average level, in 10 years. They suggested 3 to 5 years be spent on working out plans, policies and regulations necessary for developing elec-tronic commerce, building substantial and tangible electronic commerce systems, fos-tering specialized talents, optimizing of the electronic commerce systems in some trades and areas; and then 5 to 7 years be spent on linking with international elec-tronic commerce to enable our electronic commerce system as an important compo-nent of international electronic commerce; popularizing of electronic commerce in application, raising electronic commerce in our country to a higher level in research, development and application, to the average level in developed countries.The following description tells what major I/e strategies some major manufactur-ers in the world are taking in development of electronic commerce.IBM: IBM is the pioneer that held up the banner of electronic commerce as a new application of Internet. In people's mind, IBM is now not only manufacturer of main-frames, PCs, servers, software but also the “godfather" of electronic commerce. IBM has always been dedicated to promoting secure commerce over the Internet. It sin-come from selling servers hasaccounted for 60% of its total in-come.IBM not only provides products for large-scale applications of secure, efficient, reliable electronic commerce and payment over Internet, but also for small electronic business as well.IBM Micro Payments an application enabling buyers to purchase low cost items over Internet-is another example of how IBM is expanding to new areas of commerce. By enabling billing servers, content providers and other merchants to profitably sell items for even a few cents, IBM opens up a whole new market.IBM Micro Payments allows buyers, sellers and billing systems to sell content, information, and services over Internet, for small amounts. IBM's commitment to electronic commerce and electronic business makes it a leader in the area of electronic payments. An automated compiler tool transforms existing HTML pages, creating "click and pay" links with either fixed or dynamic prices. Content and service provid-ers can take advantage of the extensive set of APIs and authoring tools to extend IBM Micro Payments available from OEMs. Billing servers can easily integrate the IBM Micro Payments application with existing billing systems and use it to attract content providers and open new sources of revenue.IBM Micro Payments provides scalability and interoperability, which allows widespread availability across Internet, including multi-currency and multilingual support, and low operational costs it easily supports transactions as low as one cent.SUN: SUN as a global leading supplier treats Internet not only a tool but also a new mode of commerce. SUN has provided very flexible solutions to commercial af-fairs for BBC, ETRADE, Federal Express, First Auction, Fruit of the Loom, Kodak, Thomas Cook, Virgin.Microsoft: Microsoft aims at helping enterprises to set up more powerful relation with their clients and partners by three means: (I)Windows 2000, BackOffice, Site Server, Biztalk,etc; (2) MSN (in the United States, more than 40% web users access MSN, and consumers can conduct comparative study when buying articles and ser-vices); (3) Partners provide customers with various products and services on Mi-crosoft MSN platform, realizing electronic commerce solutions, including settling account, paying tax, shopping, logistics, purchasing, accounting, ERP (Electronic Remote Processing) and EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), etc.Site Server and Biz talk are the two major products of Microsoft adopted in exist-ing system for enterprises to develop electronic commerce. Site Server is used for constructing web stores, based on data-it enables the client to easily realize on-line catalog, buying/selling order, exchange of documents for promoting sale, etc. Disre-garding what platform, operating system or technology used in low layer.Novell: Novell defines itself as "NET Service Supplier" after2000. The word NET includes intranet, extranet, Internet, company net, public net, cable net, wireless net. Its aim is to breakout the existing service domain in which most software products can provide services only in a specific environment or for a specific procedure or server (rather than the whole network).Novell's network service software NDS eDirectory as a nucleus helps clients to reduce complexity of business on network, and improve security, so that it enables network, applications and business processing to adapt to electronic commerce, and thus speed up their transfer to electronic commerce.SCO: SCO’s Tarantella is the best solution for existing users to conduct elect ronic commerce. Users can use only a browser to access any applications of platforms in back counter, without the need of re-writing existing applications, in their effort to transfer their business to electronic commercial mode. To ensure electronic commerce to continually operate, SCO provides an incessant cluster solution based on UNIXWARE 7. This product is easy to use,easy to manage and its cost is one-tenth of large-scale product of the same sort for mainframes while its performance doubles. It is a security solution with higher performance/ cost ratio among the same sort for electronic commerce.Tivoli Systems Inc. today announced Tivoli Business Systems Manager, a new, fully integrated solution that allows businesses to manage their IT environments from the top down, creating a powerful view of business systems management.The Tivoli Business Systems Manager solution provides us with business views and control mechanisms to manage all of our distributed IT resources in the retail, banking and electronic commerce environments-including system resources, data-bases, application servers, web servers and electronic commerce applications-from one central location. The Graphical User Interface allows us to monitor all of our re-sources on a single screen, regardless of geographical location.Combining the features of Tivoli Global Enterprise and Tivoli Manager for OS/390, Tivoli Business Systems Manager provides true end-to-end enterprise management from one console, simplifying the administration of heterogeneous environments. Tivoli Business Systems Manager enables customers to manage and control multiple applications that are required for different business functions.中文译文:电子商务电子商务或电子贸易,电子商业,或作为一个新兴的商业模式将产生深远的影响,经济和社会中发挥重要作用的社会发展世界各地。

International Journal of Physical Distribution & Logistics Management, 2002, 32(3):203-222.文献原文The impact of electronic commerce onlogistics service providersWerner Delfmann, Sascha Albers, Martin Gehring,Business Policy and Logistics, University of Cologne, GermanyAbstract The impact of e-commerce on the business environment is often praised but seldom analyzed with scrutiny. In this paper we try to depict the underlying logistically relevant aspects of e-commerce and their impacts on logistics service providers. This seems to be of considerable importance, as logistics is seen as the back-bone of e-commerce operations. However, the firms specializing in this field are commonly neglected. We argue that the logistical implications of e-commerce can be differentiated into two main categories: the rise of e-marketplaces; and the elimination of supply chain elements (disintermediation). By analyzing these two categories and their major logistical implications in detail we deduct strategic consequences for logistics service providers.Keywords :Internet, logistics, strategyIntroductionE-commerce has been one of the buzzwords of the last years. Analysts as well as researchers predicted enormous changes in the competitive landscape of whole industries, causing an as yet unwitnessed surge in s tock prices of companies in the “new” economy. However, this was almost two years ago. Today, the dust has settled and many of the promising new e-commerce companies have failed or are struggling for economical survival. The failure of so many companies in e-commerce can be in part accounted for by the neglect of logistics as a key factor of success, implying a prominent role for companies specializing in the logistics segment (Bretzke, 2000). Logistics service providers (LSPs) are thus confronted with changes in their respective market environments. It is therefore surprising that little attention has been paid to an assessment of these changes and their direct as well as indirect implications for LSPs. (In contrast, e-commerce applications for logistics companies have stimulated a broader echo, e.g. Pfohl and Koldau, 1999.)This paper tries to bridge the gap. It is divided into three main sections. The first part deals with a specification and classification of logistics service providers. In the second part a clarification of the term e-commerce is provided and prominent business models of e-commerce firms are depicted as well as modifications in the configuration of logistics chains illustrated. Finally, we focus on the implications of these modifications and trends for LSPs.LSPsLSPs have grown in importance since more and more companies outsource their logistics functions (Sheffi, 1990). Generally speaking, logistics service providers are companies which perform logistics activities on behalf of others. Additional popular terms for these companies are third-party logistic firm, or contract logistics firm (Razzaque and Sheng, 1998; Sink et al., 1996). “Whatever label is chosen, it denotes external suppliers that perform(s) all or part of a company’s logistics functions” (Coyle et al., 1996; Ihde, 1991). However, definitions of this kind only give an institutional characterization of LSPs, leaving the functional scope of these providers unanswered.It appears reasonable to assess the functions of LSPs by referring to a definition of the underlying domain, that is logistics and logistics management. With reference to the predominant logistics definition provided by the Council of Logistics Management (2001), logistics functions include the planning, implementation and control of the flow of goods, services and related information.LSPs differ among the palette of services they provide to their customers as well as with regard to other criteria. Although a commonly accepted typology for LSPs is still missing, some propositions exist on this matter, e.g. types of services (Muller, 1993a, b; Africk and Calkins, 1994), geographical scope of operations and type of goods handled (Niebuer, 1996). With regard to their contribution for the explanation of changes in the supply chain induced by e-commerce, we will pursue a characterization employing two criteria here, which are, however, closely related. We will focus on functions and the degree of customization, as the combination of these criteria allows a comprehensive clustering of LSPs.An overview of functions LSPs typically perform, based on a survey among buyers of logistics services, is provided by Sink.A more conceptual approach was taken by Engelsleben (1999), who clustered these functions into two broad groups: services which are directly related to the physical flow of goods, and services which are not directly related to the physical goods flow.However, these functions and types of services can be grouped with regard to the degree of customization as well. A clustering of LSPs according to this dimension was conducted by Niebuer (1996), who divides LSPs into three major groups. The first group consists of service providers, which only offer standardized and isolated logistics services or distribution functions, e.g. transportation and warehousing. The services they fulfil for their customers are standardized, resulting in highly interchangeable services among this type of LSPs. These companies are highly specialized in their field and do not take over coordinational or administrative functions for their customers. They mostly handle homogeneous objects and optimize their whole logistics system with regard to these special logistics objects. Standardizing LSPs plan, implement and control their own logistics system according to their requirements and considerations. Examples are traditional carriers and the integrators’ original express parcel services as offered, inter alia, by UPS and FedEx. We will refer to them as standardizing LSPs.The second group consists of companies which combine selected standardized services to bundles of logistics services according to their customers’ wishes. We will thus call them bundling LSPs. Theoperational coordination and arrangement of these service bundles are provided by the LSP, whereas the disposition lies in the responsibility of the buying company. Frequently these bundles of services consist of a core logistics activity, like transportation, which is combined with secondary activities such as simple assembly and quality control activities, performed by traditional forwarding companies in the automobile industry. These bundles are offered undifferentiated for all potential customers and can thus not be regarded as customized services.We will call the third group customizing LSPs, as these companies design logistics services and logistics systems according to the preferences of their customers. These LSPs combine and modify components of logistics services especially for the needs of one specific customer. Companies of this type usually take over coordinative and administrative responsibility for their customer as well (Engelsleben, 1999). These providers also offer services which are not originally attributable to the logistics functions, but rather to financing and production activities. The core competence of customizing LSPs can thus be seen on the conceptual and coordination side, themselves outsourcing singular logistics activities to standardizing LSPs[1]. The customizing LSP takes over responsibility for the effectiveness and efficiency of the logistics system of its customer. Examples are the German WM Group and Ryder System in the USA. Illustrates the clustering of LSPs according to the customization criteria.The combination of both dimensions reveals certain basic configurations of LSPs, as the nature of the product determines its potential for customization. Standardizing LSPs offer mainly the core logistics processes, as depicted above. These processes are subject to economies of scale and therefore favour specialized providers of these services.Bundling LSPs offer ex definitione more than one standardized product. The bundle they offer will most probably consist of certain core processes and/or value added services with regard to their customers’ needs. Standardiz ed financial services, such as insurance or payment services, may as well be part of their product portfolio. However, bundling LSPs will not offer management support services or tools, as these products have to be configured with regard to one special customer. These tools are therefore the domain of customizing LSPs. This group of LSPs will mostly refrain from producing the core processes themselves, as they will be sourced from specialized (standardizing) LSPs.E-commerceTo understand the importance of logistics in many e-commerce business models, we will first propose a definition of electronic commerce. Subsequently, we will point out the relative importance of logistics for each generic e-commerce business model and describe how supply chains are affected by e-commerce.“Broadly speaking, electronic commerce includes any form of economic activity conducted via electronic connections” (Wigand, 1997). Although this is a very broad definition of e-commerce, it highlights the two crucial elements:(1) economic activity; and(2) electronic connections.An economic activity or, more precisely, an economic transaction can generally be divided into five phases:(1) initiation;(2) agreement;(3) exchange;(4) inspection/control; and(5) adjustment/service.It is clear that the term electronic commerce combines economic transactions with electronical means. The question to be raised is: which of the five phases have to be carried out electronically to allow the term e-commerce to be applied?We will include the most fundamental transaction phase, that of agreement, at the core of the definition. Furthermore, the electronic initiation of the transaction will be considered an essential component of the term e-commerce. The initiation phase is the phase where electronic means are perceived to offer the most radical changes and improvements (Evans and Wurster, 1997, 1999; Bakos, 1997, 1998) over the physical world. The inclusion of both phases excludes the mere online search for product information followed by a visit in a traditional shop as e-commerce. By the same token, the mere advertising on the Internet without the possibility for closing the deal online will not be treated as e-commerce.We do not include the electronic exchange of goods or services as a necessary condition for e-commerce. This very narrow approach (Choi et al., 1997) would only comprise digital products, therefore reducing logistics to solely information logistics and render a further discussion of the implications of e-commerce for logistics useless. The electronic conduct of the exchange phase will thus be treated as a non-necessary condition for e-commerce. By the same token, the electronic control and adjustment/service phase are non-necessary conditions as well.The second essential element of e-commerce is the electronic connection. Electronic connections range from phone lines and telegraphic wires to fibre-optic cables and satellite communication. A definition of e-commerce using the term electronic connection would encompass simple phone ordering. However, this is usually not interpreted as e-commerce. For our purposes, we will focus on computer-to-computer connections via electronic data interchange (EDI) or Internet technology, encompassing the World Wide Web as well as classic EDI/VANs connected to the Internet and using the transfer protocols of Internet technology (Unitt and Jones, 1999). The reason for the concentration on Internet technology is simple: as a two-way communication network overcoming the trade-off between reach and richness of information (Evans and Wurster, 1999) and offering significant potential for lowering transaction costs (Bakos, 1997; Wigand, 1997) the Internet appears to be the currently most promising back-bone for conducting economic transactions. We will concentrate on the Internet, as we expect it to become the only medium for electronic transactions within the next decade. We define e-commerce as the electronic conduct of at least the initiation and agreement phase of aneconomic transaction via electronic networks that allow the automated processing of transaction data.E-commerce following this definition can be identified in nearly every possible economic relationship.By referring to three basic groups of actors (business, administration, and consumer), five general types of e-commerce can be identified:(1) business-to-business (b2b);(2) business-to-consumer (b2c);(3) consumer-to-consumer (c2c);(4) business-to-administration (b2a); and(5) consumer-to-administration (c2a).To simplify the examination we will treat governments and other public organizations like businesses where they act as buyers. Furthermore, we will ignore transactions between consumers, thus concentrating on b2b and b2c exchanges.Within these types of transactions, three basic classes of business models can be identified:(1) portal;(2) market maker; and(3) service provider (Mahadevan, 2000).Portals offer information and search services for their customers. They serve as the entrance into the online marketspace and are among the most recognized. Their revenue streams mainly come from advertisements and provision fees for channelling Web traffic to Web sites of product/service providers.Market makers not only build a community for customers like portals, they also enable economic transactions between them by offering mechanisms for the secure and trustworthy conduct of such transactions. Their source of income can be provision fees for every transaction on the marketplaces enabled by them or one-time charges for developing and establishing electronic marketplaces.Product/service providers, finally, are companies that sell directly via the Internet. According to our definition of e-commerce they present, market (e.g. at portals) and sell their products/service on the Web. Depending on the type of good/service, the result will be the physical or digital delivery of goods or the performance of some kind of service.Obviously, some companies span more than one of the generic business models and cover more than one segment, trying to leverage their brand name and customer base (Arthur, 1996). For the scope of our examination, portals are of minor interest, because the only logistics flows they generate are information flows. Of greater relevance are the market makers and of course the product providers, because they generate logistics challenges. As we will see in the following section, some of these challenges caused by e-commerce do not differ from logistics operations and management in traditional businesses. But there are consequences of some business models in e-commerce that lead to completely new supply chain structures and therefore cause yet unknown challenges for logistics operations. Changes in supply chain configurations and the role of logistics service providers In traditional supply chains logistics service providers take a prominent role, as goods are to beshipped between suppliers and OEM producers as well as downstream through the distribution chain. The extent to which these activities are outsourced to LSPs differs among industries as well as among individual companies. The grey-shaded boxes in Figure 5 are the new elements added to a generic supply chain by e-commerce applications. They can either complement or substitute traditional supply chain structures. While the e-stores would represent the product/service provider business model described earlier, the e-marketplace could represent a market maker business model.Changes in the downstream segmentThe first and most obvious point of interference is the stage between consumer and retailer. Traditionally the products were pushed down the chain with the last mile logistics being performed by the consumer himself. In e-commerce the consumer chooses his products on his personal computer via an online store with the fulfilment being handled by the e-commerce provider. This shift has major implications, as decentralized and uncoordinated logistics activities (from individual customers) are transformed into potentially bundled goods flows, which are at least to a certain extent controlled by the supplier side, leaving room for sophisticated planning and design of effective logistics systems (as, for example, traditional home-order companies operate). The opposite is true when the retailer stage is skipped, as if producers offer their goods directly to consumers. In this case highly bundled shipments to retailers are substituted with far less bundled shipments to end consumers. Therefore, both the retailer and the producer will have to reconfigure their established logistics systems from consolidated shipments to small packages. Both effects are the result of the disintermediation phenomenon incurred by e-commerce (Hawkins et al., 1999). In the classical supply chain the retailer was the only interface with the consumer.The reasons for disintermediation are derived from the following logic. Every stage in the chain adds costs in the form of handling, shipping, profits and transaction costs (Benjamin and Wigand, 1995). A producer offering direct home delivery has to answer the question whether the additional costs related to direct home delivery are more than compensated for by the savings incurred from skipping the additional stages of the distribution chain. However, the retail stages not only add costs, they also add value.Wholesalers and retailers not only are an additional handling stage, they fulfil a vast array of functions (Müller-Hagedorn, 1993). The most important function is to offer an assortment of goods, enabling the consumer to choose between products from different producers (e.g. the consumer can choose between personal computers of at least three or four producers at a computer shop compared with only Dell’s pcs at ). However, the Internet is a medium well suited to offer this assortment function (Evans and Wurster, 1997). The most popular Internet retailer, , offers a product selection of nearly five million items, including more than four million books. This compares with 200,000 books at the largest offline book-stores. But this vast selection is not, as many analysts and shareholders may have believed, a virtual selection. Amazon has to manage inventory, pick and pack, and ship items as well as every other offline mail order company –on a larger scale. As Jeff Bezos, founder and C EO of , remarks: “ is most of all a logistics company”.Changes in the upstream segmentThe supplier in the generic supply chain (see Figure 5) does not offer goods of interest to the consumer or the retailer, thus isolating him from the downstream part of the supply chain. E-commerce for him becomes visible through electronic marketplaces, where a fraction of his products will be procured from his customers. In the classic supply chain the supplier-producer or producer-retailer relationships were characterized as stable networks of a limited number of partners interconnected via dedicated electronic data interchange (EDI) connections. The use of spot market transactions for procurement was limited to a few commodities like crude oil due to the high transaction costs for the establishment and then operation of market-based procurement platforms. Modern information technology in the form of the Internet and related protocols can reduce this transaction costs in two ways. The costs of establishing electronic market systems are reduced drastically by the high connectivity of the Internet. Furthermore, the Internet offers the potential for lowering search costs as an important part of overall transaction costs (Bakos, 1997). For the structure of the supply chain this implies more potential partners in a less stable network.These new open marketplaces create a challenge for supply chain planning, since they could introduce a change from stable, long-term relationships with suppliers towards unstable spot-market relationships with changing partners in certain industries. But these traded goods will still have to be transported to the customer; therefore the role of LSPs is –in general –not disputed. However, e-marketplaces are considering closer ties to preselected LSPs, aiming at providing their customers with higher service levels when trading in their market. In this case a selection among LSPs becomes probable. Even in those cases where the use of modern IT does not lead to the introduction of electronic marketplaces it will allow for a much higher integration of supply chain partners, which could lead to different order patterns and therefore to new challenges for LSPs.To summarize, e-commerce business models are distinct from offline business models not only because of higher interactivity and 24/7 availability. They promote the importance of logistics (Gurau et al., 2001) and, in many cases, create different logistical tasks. The logistical systems of many companies, especially in the retail sector, are not sufficient to manage the new challenges. In order to participate in e-commerce, companies will have to seek new logistical solutions. Pure e-commerce players will, in the worst case, have to focus on logistics as well as on marketing; offline players will have to build a second logistical structure when participating in e-commerce. This offers great opportunities for logistics service providers.译文电子商务对物流服务商的影响Werner Delfmann,Sascha Albers, Martin Gehring商务政策和物流,科隆大学,德国摘要:在商业环境,电子商务的影响经常受到赞美但很少受到分析审查。

In this note we introduce a model logistics subsystem and discuss how it will be integrated with the system. Keywords: e-commerce;logistics system;agent1.IntroductionCurrently, we are developing and implementing a model agent-based e-commerce system (see [2] and references collected there). In this system multiple buyer agents attempt at making purchase by participating in price negotiations in e-stores and selecting the best offer, while e-stores attempt at maximizing profit resulting from product sales.Thus far our attention was focused on buyer-seller interactions. By assuming that products are in the warehouse we have omitted the question where do they come from. The aim of this work is to describe how our system can be extended to include product restocking processes.Before proceeding let us make a few observations. First, the proposed logistics subsystem is not ―stand alone‖(e.g. similar to that considered in [3, 1, 6]). Instead, it has been created within the context of our e-commerce system, which has directly influenced its design. Second, while somewhat similar, processes involved in e-store restocking a warehouse differ from client making a purchase in an e-store (e.g. in product demand prediction, interactions with wholesalers, methods of price negotiations that involve more ―cond itions,‖ offer selection criteria, etc.) Therefore we have created a separate logistics subsystem (instead of reusing already modeled functions; e.g. price negotiations). Third, this note is devoted to the agent structure and agent interactions and, due to the space limitations, we omit important topics like:forecasts derivation, offer evaluation etc.However, these functions can be encapsulated into modules that can become a part of an appropriate agent. Therefore readers should envision that, for instance, when we write that ―rece ived offers are evaluated,‖then their favorite method of offer evaluationhas been utilized.To proceed, first, we briefly describe our e-commerce system.We follow with assumptions that underline the logistics subsystem and description of new agents that were introduced. Finally, we present the sequence diagram of restocking and use it to discuss in detail how this process will take place in our system.2. System DescriptionOur system is a distributed marketplace in which software agents perform e-commerce functions (see [2] for details, the Use Case diagram in particular). User-Client is represented by the Client Agent (CA). The CA is autonomous and when a purchase order is communicated by the User-Client, it works until either it is completed, or purchase is abandoned. The CA communicates with the Client Information Center (CIC), which facilitates information which e-stores sell which products (yellow-page matchmaking).For each store that sells the requested product, the CA delegates a Buyer Agent (BA) to participate in price negotiations and if successful, possibly attempt at making a pur- chase (successful price negotiations result in a product reservation for a specific time; after which products that have not been purchased are available for sale again).Since multiple BAs representing the same CA can win price negotiations the CA makes the decision if either of available offers is good enough to make a purchase. Buyer Agents can participate in negotiations only if the Gatekeeper Agent (GA) admits them (if they are trusted; e.g. BAs that win price negotiations but do not make a purchase may be barred from subsequent negotiations). The GA represents a given e-store and is created by the Shop Agent (SA). The SA is the central manager and facilitating the selling process it utilizes the GA, and a set of Seller Agents (SeA) that negotiate price with incoming BAs, as well as a Warehouse Agent (WA) that is responsible for inventory and reservation management. Thus far, the WA was responsible for managing product reservations and the inventory. Specifically, (1) before a new price negotiation the WA ―re served‖ a given product—so that if negotiation ended successfully there was an item that could be sold; (2) when a reservation ended in purchase, it adjusted product counters; and (3) when a reservation expired it also adjusted products counters. However, the WA was always envisioned as the ―gat eway‖between the store and suppliers, which is one of the foci of this note.3. Assumptions behind the logistics systemLet us now specify assumptions that underline design of the logistics subsystem:1.Nowadays, except of largest store-chains (e.g. TESCO, WalMart), companiesoutsource transportation activities (considered non-core business activities) to specialists (e.g. UPS, Mayflower). However, we assume here that suppliers are still re sponsible for facilitating transportation. Therefore, we omit transportation related processes and focus only in interactions between e-stores and suppliers2. As a result of (1), transportation costs are assumed to be paid by the supplier and included directly in product price (e.g. discount on delivery costs, will manifest itself in the total price).3. While in the original system auction-based price negotiations were used, here we opted for the simplicity of the FIPA Contract Net Protocol [4]. Therefore, in the logistics subsystem, a single round of negotiations consisting of a call for proposals and evaluation of responses, is used.4. New functions and agentsIn order to perform logistics-related tasks, several new roles were introduced; some of them have been delegated to agents existing in the system, while others warranted adding new agents. Specifically:•demand estimation—to draw information from sales data and/or external premises to predict future sales of products,•warehouse monitoring—to observe supply levels and react in case of a risk ofdropping below values considered sufficient to satisfy estimated demand,•order management—to coordinate issuing orders for goods, to assist inevaluating received offers,•ordering goods—to contact suppliers for their of- fers and to select the best offer,•selling goods—in the system suppliers were also modeled; while goods are acquired without extensive price negotiations, ―someone‖ has to deliver proposals to ordering components,•logistics yellow pages—the role of the ―l og istics CIC‖is very similar to the original CIC ([2]); it has to provide lists of potential suppliers of products; obviously, it is possible for a shop to become a sup- plier for another shop and to suggest that the two CIC s could be joined, but we decided to clearly separate the client-side from the shop and from the supply-side. Another reason for this separation was that while some shops may not be interested in becoming wholesaler, we would have to make changes to the original CIC data structure (e.g. wholesaler—yes/no). Finally, since the logistics subsystem does not involve auctions, the separation is even more warranted.Let us now see how these tasks/roles could be placed in our system. The demandestimation role was attributed to the existing Shop Decision Agent (SDA), responsible for the ―kn owledge managemen t‖functions (e.g. trust management, sales trend data mining, etc.) in the shop.The warehouse monitoring role is already a part of the existing WA. The difference is that now WA becomes a proactive manager of supplies; acting on predictions supplied by the SDA.Fulfillment of the order management role required introduction of the Logistics Agent (LA), which became the ―centra l manager‖ of the logistics subsystem. It is responsible for contacting the logistics CIC for the list of potential suppliers and managing a pool of agents responsible for ordering goods from ―wholesalers.‖ Finally, it collects and manages data related to supplier reliability. This data, in turn, will be one of factors in selecting the supplier.The ordering goods process is facilitated by the Ordering Agent (OA), which is also a new agent. Its task is to issue a call for proposals, collect responses and select the best offer taking into account factors such as: price, delivery time, reliability etc. Let us recall that due to the modularity of agent design ([2]), our system is flexible enough so that any method of selecting an offer can be applied (it can be encapsulated in a module and plugged into the OA).The selling goods role is realized by a very simple Wholesale Agent (WhA). Its role is to respond to CFP’s incoming from OA s.Currently we assume that WhA s receive instructions in what way to generate a stream of responses to the CFPs.Finally, logistics yellow pages are facilitated by the logistics CIC Agent. Its role is to store a complete list of suppliers and products that they sell. Obviously, the logistics CIC uses the original product ontology ([2]), extended by the logistics ontology. When the system is initialized, each WhA registers with the logistics CIC and provides it with a list of products for sale.What was described thus far is summarized in an UML use case diagram presented in Figure 1.Figure 1. Use Case of the logistics subsystem5. Typical Product Restocking ProcessLet us now describe the processes involved in restocking the warehouse. Here, we skip the description of system initialization, and start with the Shop Decision Agent sending a forecast to the Warehouse Agent. The sequence of actions resulting form such a forecast is depicted, as a UML sequence diagram in Figure 2.The SDA communicates the forecast to the WA by sending a FIPA Inform message containing the PredictionDescription (which contains all necessary data such as: product ID, amount of predicted sales, standard deviation of sales, expected purchase price, period for which this forecast is valid, etc.). We assume that the SDA forecasts are of the type: until a new fore- cast, weekly sales are expected to be 45 items of a given product. Forecasts can be issued at specific times (e.g. once a week or once a month) and their frequency de- pends on the information found in data analyzed by the SDA to derive forecast(s).The WA starts by examining current stock of a given product, and if current supplies are sufficient, it sets up to check their levels at the end of the time unit specified in the forecast (i.e. forecasts specified on weekly basis are checked once a week). If stocks are insufficient, the WA utilizes the FIPA Request Protocol (FIPA specification SC00026) and FIPA SL language [4] (used in all agent interactions), to com- municate with the Logistics Agent. The initial message from the WA is the FIPA Request message sent to the LA and it contains OrderRequest action with the Or- derRequestDescription. The OrderRequestDescription contains the necessary information specifying the order to be made: product ID, preferred delivery time, amount and maximumprice. Delivery time and amount are computed based on the current product level, predicted delivery time and an overall inventory strategy.Upon receiving the request, the LA dispatches a query to the logistics CIC to obtain a list of suppliers of a given product. Ensuing conversation conforms to the FIPA Query Protocol, starting with the FIPA Query-Ref message containing the CICQuery action with the Product ID. The logistics CIC responds with the FIPA Inform-Ref message containing the CICResponse with a list (possibly empty) of suppliers. Empty list results in a FIPA Failure message (with OrderRequestResult set to failure) send by the LA to the WA. Similar response is sent when the logistics CIC cannot be contacted.When the non-empty list was received, the LA removes these suppliers that have their reliability value below a certain threshold. Then the LAAgentDescriptions list is formed by supplementing each CICAgentDescription received from the logistics CIC with the reliability information. If a given WhA’s is not known a default trust value is used.After preparing the list, the LA utilizes the FIPA Request Protocol to find a free OA. Busy agents will re- spond with FIPA Refuse messages. If all agents respond in such a way, this process may need to be repeated un- til a free OA is found and responds with the FIPA Agree message. The LA then sends the ordering request to the selected OA and awaits for the result of the ordering pro- cess. LA’s message contains the IssueOrder action with the OrderDescription and the LAAgentDescriptions.After obtaining the request from the LA, the OA engages in the FIPA ContractNet Protocol interactions with WhAs from the list. It sends the FIPA CallForProposal message, containing CFPRequest with OrderDescription to the WhAs. WhAs evaluate the CFP and submit their offers by sending FIPA Propose messages containing the CFP Response actionwith OfferDescription or, if terms contained in the CFP are unacceptable/not interesting, respond using the FIPA Refuse message.Responses must arrive within a timeframe speci- fied by the OA, after which the OA proceeds to evalu- ate them. First, it filters unacceptable offers. Note that it is possible that some WhAs may respond knowingly with proposals that violate some of the conditions and in special circumstances when no better offers were found the OA may need to accept such offers. In the next step, offers are ranked and the winner is determined. Winner issent a FIPA AcceptProposal message containing the ConfirmationRequest action with its offer quoted. The winning WhA must in turn reply with the FIPA Inform messagecontaining Confirmation Response action with the OrderConfirmation which has unique orderID generated by the supplier. This successfully completes the ordering process.The winner can also withdraw the offer by sending a FIPA Failure message. In this case, runner-ups are contacted in an iterative manner. In case when there are no more offers left or there were no offers to begin with, the OA sends a FIPA Failure message to the LA,which, in turn, forwards it to the WA. When the winner confirms the order, the OA sends to the LA a FIPA Inform message containing the InformResult action with the WhA-received Or der Confirmation, thus completing the protocol. At this time the LA sends information to the WA, inside a message of the FIPA Agree type. This performative is used in compliance with the protocol to indicate that the LA is performing the desired task (ordering), but its efforts do not guarantee success (ordering success order success), and thus sending the final response (FIPA Inform) is inappropriate at this stage. Meanwhile the OA returns to the pool of available Ordering Agents.Now the purchase enters the delivery monitoring stage. Here, the LA waits for the delivery from the WhA to be registered with the WA. When a delivery arrives the WA sends (to the LA) a plain FIPA Inform message containing the WADelivery action with the DeliveryDescription, which has supplier’s AgentID and the already mentioned orderId. The LA does not need to respond to this message, but it checks the messages to see if it is currently awaiting a delivery with the given orderId coming from a supplier AgentID. If it finds a match, the ordering process is completed. As a result, the reliability value of supplied AgentID is increased. If a delivery notification does not come within time agreed in the OrderConfirm, actions must be undertaken (recall, that receiving supplies is vital to the e-Shop as its warehouse is likely to run out of stock Those actions are: (1) retry the ordering (sending reminder to the WhA / choosing new WhA), if there is still time, and (2) marking that a retry has been made.If there is still time before the deadline (established by the WA), then order can be retried. If it is the first time an attempt to retry the order is made, a reminder is sent to the WhA. To this end, LA contacts a free OA with a FIPA Request Protocol message with a Reminder action containing AgentID of the WhA and the orderId. The OA accepts the job (the FIPA Agree) and contacts the WhA (also using FIPA Request Protocol), sending it the exact same action. The WhA is expected to reply within a timeframe using either a FIPA Failure (offer is withdrawn) or a FIPA Inform providing new Order Confirmationwith a new delivery time, which is forwarded to the LA unchanged. In the case of an agreement, the LA returns to awaiting delivery, in the case of failure, the LA removes this WhA from the LA Agent Description list and locates an OA to perform entirely new search for a supplier. New search is also ordered if a reminder to the supplier whose delivery we were waiting resulted in a failure. The monitoring stage ends when: (1) delivery is received, or (2) reminder to the supplier was made, but it was refused, while deadline has already passed. Note that we assume that the actual order failure occurs only when the delivery deadline has passed and the reminder failed.This is because it is possible that there is an order delay and goods may arrive late. This information can be obtained from the WhA, and thus the need for the reminder.Figure 2. Restocking process: sequence diagramWhen the monitoring stage ends, the WA is notified about the result by the FIPA Inform or the FIPA Failure message to complete the FIPA Request protocol. The message will contain the OrderRequest action with the OrderRequestResult set appropriately. Furthermore, at this stage the reliability bonuses and/or penalties are calculated and applied. Finally, in the case of a successful order, the WA sends to the SDA a FIPA In-form message containing status information about the re-stocking of the warehouse.6. Concluding remarksIn this note we have discussed the way in which the logistics subsystem is being introduced into our model agent-based e-commerce system. We have presented used UML’s use case and sequence diagrams to formally depict and discuss the most important features of our approach. Due to the lack of space, we have focused our attention on agents and their interactions. The proposed system has been implemented and is in the final testing phase.References[1] C. Bádicá, A.

电子商务及其对物流的影响外文翻译外文翻译原文E-commercial and consequences for the logistics industryMaterial Source: ////0>. Author:Kenth LumsdenDistribution development within e-commerce1.1 Conventional distributionIn conventional international distribution, goods pass through several nodes, or stops, before reaching the customer, see Figure 3. After production, and possibly storage at the factory, the goods are delivered to the national distribution center DC. Here they are stored, consolidated and reloaded, and then sent on to the next stop, the local DC. The goods are handled in the same way as at the national DC, and are thereafter sent on to the retailer, where they are sold to the customer. Since most of the time that goods spend at nodes does not add value, the more nodes there are in a distribution channel the less efficient it generally is Lumsden, 1998.The point where the goods change from being delivered to stock to being delivered to order is called the customer order point COP. In conventional distribution, the COP is at the retailer, where the customersorder and buy the products. This is called a push system since the company predicts the demand and the goods are pushed through the distribution channel Coyle et al., 1996.With e-commerce there are several possibilities for new ways of distributing goods, and presumably there will be different ways of distribution for different types of goods. Time will be of great importance when deciding on what type of distribution model to use. The faster and more direct flow of information on the Internet will make it possible to skip one or more nodes in the distribution channel and thereby increase delivery speed. For example, in the future products might be delivered to the customer directly from the producer or from a national distribution warehouse. One likely scenario is that customers will have the possibility to choose how quickly they want their products delivered. The more the customers are willing to pay, the faster they can receive their products, and the distribution models will then be different according to the lead time allowed.1.2 Distribution structures for Internet buyingAlong with the entry and expansion of e-commerce, it will be possible and necessary to make large changes in companies’ distribution processes. This is because the COP will be moved upstream in the distribution channel, in some cases all the way up to the producing company. Consequently, the distribution process can be simplified to consist onlyof direct distribution from the producing company to the customer. Several different distribution channels can be seen as possible future solutions, see Figure 4. The base alternative is the conventional distribution, which is described earlier in the section about conventional distribution. An example from the food industry could be that the food producer is located in France, from where the groceries are shipped in full truckloads or trains to a national distribution center DC located somewhere in southern Swe den or in Denmark, e.g. Dancargo’s national warehouse at Arendal, Denmark. In the DC the groceries are stored, reloaded and consolidated with other products and later shipped on to a local DC in full truckloads. This DC can for example be ICA V?st, located in Kung?lv, Sweden. At ICA V?st the goods are again stored, reloaded and consolidated and from here transported to the retailer ICA i by either full truckloads or less than full truckloads. Customers then purchase the groceries at ICA i.1.3 Distribution ChannelsThe first alternative for a simpler distribution system for e-commerce products is to remove the retailer and distribute goods directly from local warehouses to customer. This is called home delivery, and an example of this situation could be the purchasing of tulips over the Internet. The tulips are grown in the Netherlands and are shipped to a national DC in Sweden in refrigerated trucks, since the goods are perishable. In this warehouse the tulips are consolidated into smallerconsignments and then transported to the retailers, for example an Interflora store. The customer now places an order at the Interflora store over the Internet, and the florist arranges the bouquet. The flowers are then distributed to the customers, either in Interflora’s own vehicles or in a courier’s van.Another possible alternative is to remove the local warehouse from the distribution channel and use the postal service to distribute the goods from the national warehouse to the customer. This is called mail-order shopping and works as follows. Using an example from the clothing trade, clothes are manufactured in Asia and transported to a national DC in Bor?s in Sweden. The customer places an order over the Internet to the mail order company, and the clothes are packed in parcels. These parcels are then distributed to the local post office by the national postal service, and are finally delivered to the customer by the mail man.A third alternative is to distribute goods from the national distribution centers to the c ustomers. A good example here is Tamro’s distribution of incontinence protection articles for elderly people. The products are produced in Germany and transported to Tamro’s national DC in B?ckebol, G?teborg. There they are stored and packed, and finally distributed directly to the customers by Schenker-BTL.The last alternative is to have direct distribution from the producing company to the final customer. This could, for example, be thedistribution of tailor-made clothes by the company Tailor online. The customers state their measurements and place an order over the Internet. The order is then sent to the factory in Estonia where the garments are produced and packed in parcels. The finished products are distributed to the customer by mail. Another exam ple is Bokus’s selling and distribution of books, which go directly from the printing house to the customer. Amazon is also a well-known company selling books via the Internet. They started their business with distribution directly from the printing house, but have had to switch logistics strategy to one in which they have to build warehouses in order to support the demand for shorter delivery time from the customers in the US Hultén, 1999.1.4 Upstream and downstream consequencesThere is little doubt that e-commerce will necessitate changes in the way products are distributed from manufacturer to customer. What these changes will be is uncertain, but it is possible to distinguish the changes in upstream and downstream consequences, Figure 5. Consequences are said to be upstream when they concern changes in the distribution channel from the customer to the producer. The only thing that is sent in that direction is information, and upstream consequences therefore mainly arise from changes in the flow of information.The main upstream consequence is that the customer order point COP will be moved upstream towards the producer, and the system will thereforechange toward a pull strategy. This will demand a more efficient information system, but will lead to reduced inventory levels and thereby reduced capital tie-up Lumsden,1998.The consequences that are said to be downstream are those that concern the actual distribution of the products to the customers. The most clearly foreseeable outcome from widespread commerce over the Internet is that consignment sizes will be reduced. The reason for this is that the distribution channels will stretch all the way to the final customer, and since private consumers do not need the same volumes as for example a retailer, the sizes will be smaller. Since the total consumption in society will remain the same, or probably even increase, the number of consignments and the number of delivery addresses will increase, and this in turn will lead to more complex distribution systems and more assignments for transportation and logistics companies Lumsden, 1998.1.5 Delivery parametersPoint of deliveryIt is very interesting to know whether the customers have the same attitudes and expectations as the producers and distributors. The results from the diagrams in Figure 6 below show that the drop- off point is still not a fully accepted alternative. More than 60% are willing to pick up products at a post office, while no more than 30% are willing to do so at a drop-off point. This is interesting, since there is basically nodifference between the two alternatives; the post office is in fact a drop-off point for Posten’s customers. This is a clear advantage for Posten On Line Center and a severe disadvantage for other distributors. For example, Privpak has been delivering mailorder products to drop-off points for a long time, but still there is resistance to this alternative.As could be expected, most consumers want their products delivered to their homes; 89% stated that this was a good alternative. The respondents are in other words prioritising the comfort of receiving the goods at their door higher than the freedom of picking the goods up whenever they want. The alternative of delivering to workplaces got a very mixed result. Over 50% stated that they would like to have their products delivered to their workplace, while over 30% said that they would not. From this we can conclude that this alternative has the potential of being a good way of delivering e-commerce goods, but that it needs to be more thoroughly investigated.Time of deliveryThe time when people want their products to be delivered is an issue that has not changed particularly much between our study and Bergendahl & Magnusson’s 1998; the most popular time window is still weekdays between 6pm and 8pm. The results in Figure 7 show that most people are prepared to commit themselves to being home for a couple of hours during a weekday to receive their products.1.6 Logistics systems’ changeabilitySeveral different conditions affect the creation and alteration of a distribution network. There are the ideological, political or strategic aspects. There are the abstract network components such as information flow. There are the physical network components such as mobile resources, and there is the physical network, or infrastructure.When implementing changes in physical distribution, which will probably be necessary to imize the benefits of e-commerce, the time for changing the different aspects mentioned above will vary. The ideological changes are fairly quick and easy to implement; these are e.g. a politician’s words and, as we all know, those can often change from day to day. Changes in the infrastructure, on the other hand, take a lot of time and cost a lot of money Figure 8. This figure also shows that making changes in information systems, which is in a way what ecommerce is all about, is a fairly quick process. Since new types of infrastructure will probably be necessary to fully utilize the benefits created from e-commerce, it is a rather safe assumption that it will take some time before we will see the whole potential of e-commerce. The complexities and differences in these changes are some of the factors that make it interesting and important to investigate how different actors will reshape their networks to adapt to the new demands of e-commerce.译文电子商务及其对物流的影响资料来源: ////.作者:Kenth Lumsden1.1 传统配送在传统的国际配送中,货物需要经过数个节点或者站点才能到达客户的手中。

外文文献原稿和译文原稿Logistics from the English word "logistics", the original intent of the military logistics support, in the second side after World War II has been widely used in the economic field. Logistics Management Association of the United States is defined as the logistics, "Logistics is to meet the needs of consumers of raw materials, intermediate products, final products and related information to the consumer from the beginning to the effective flow and storage, implementation and control of the process of . "Logistics consists of four key components: the real flow, real storage, and management to coordinate the flow of information. The primary function of logistics is to create time and space effectiveness of the effectiveness of the main ways to overcome the space through the storage distance.Third-party logistics in the logistics channel services provided by brokers, middlemen in the form of the contract within a certain period of time required to provide logistics services in whole or in part. Is a third-party logistics companies for the external customer management, control and operation of the provision of logistics services company.According to statistics, currently used in Europe the proportion of third-party logistics services for 76 percent, the United States is about 58%, and the demand is still growing; 24 percent in Europe and the United States 33% of non-third-party logistics service users are actively considering the use of third-party logistics services. As a third-party logistics to improve the speed of material flow, warehousing costs and financial savings in the cost effective means of passers-by, has become increasingly attracted great attention.First, the advantages of using a third-party logisticsThe use of third-party logistics enterprises can yield many benefits, mainly reflected in: 1, focus on core businessManufacturers can use a third-party logistics companies to achieve optimal distribution of resources, limited human and financial resources to concentrate on their coreenergy, to focus on the development of basic skills, develop new products in the world competition, and enhance the core competitiveness of enterprises.2, cost-savingProfessional use of third-party logistics providers, the professional advantages of mass production and cost advantages, by providing the link capacity utilization to achieve cost savings, so that enterprises can benefit from the separation of the cost structure. Manufacturing enterprises with the expansion of marketing services to participate in any degree of depth, would give rise to a substantial increase in costs, only the use of professional services provided by public services, in order to minimize additional losses. University of Tennessee in accordance with the United States, United Kingdom and the United States EXEL company EMST & YOUNG consulting firm co-organized a survey: a lot of cargo that enable them to use third-party logistics logistics costs declined by an average of 1.18 percent, the average flow of goods from 7.1 days to 3.9 days, stock 8.2% lower.3, reduction of inventoryThird-party logistics service providers with well-planned logistics and timely delivery means, to minimize inventory, improve cash flow of the enterprise to achieve cost advantages.4, enhance the corporate imageThird-party logistics service providers and customers is a strategic partnership, the use of third-party logistics provider of comprehensive facilities and trained staff on the whole supply chain to achieve complete control, reducing the complexity of logistics, through their own networks to help improve customer service, not only to establish their own brand image, but also customers in the competition.Second, The purpose of the implementation of logistics management The purpose of the implementation of logistics management is to the lowest possible total cost of conditions to achieve the established level of customer service, or service advantages and seek cost advantages of a dynamic equilibrium, and thus create competitive enterprises in the strategic advantage. According to this goal, logistics management to solve the basic problem, simply put, is to the right products to fit the number and the right price atthe right time and suitable sites available to customers.Logistics management systems that use methods to solve the problem. Modern Logistics normally be considered by the transport, storage, packaging, handling, processing in circulation, distribution and information constitute part of all. All have their own part of the original functions, interests and concepts. System approach is the use of modern management methods and modern technology so that all aspects of information sharing in general, all the links as an integrated system for organization and management, so that the system can be as low as possible under the conditions of the total cost, provided there Competitive advantage of customer service. Systems approach that the system is not the effectiveness of their various local links-effective simple sum. System means that, there's a certain aspects of the problem and want to all of the factors affecting the analysis and evaluation. From this idea of the logistics system is not simply the pursuit of their own in various areas of the lowest cost, because the logistics of the link between the benefits of mutual influence, the tendency of mutual constraints, there is the turn of the relationship between vulnerability. For example, too much emphasis on packaging materials savings, it could cause damage because of their easy to transport and handling costs increased. Therefore, the systems approach stresses the need to carry out the total cost analysis, and to avoid the second best effect and weigh the cost of the analysis, so as to achieve the lowest cost, while meeting the established level of customer se rvice purposes.Third, China's enterprises in the use of third-party logistics problems in While third-party logistics company has many advantages, but not many enterprises will be more outsourcing of the logistics business, the reasons boil down to:1, resistance to changeMany companies do not want the way through the logistics outsourcing efforts to change the current mode. In particular, some state-owned enterprises, we reflow will also mean that the dismissal of outsourcing a large number of employees, which the managers of state-owned enterprises would mean a very great risk.2, lack of awarenessFor third-party logistics enterprise's generally low level of awareness, lack of awareness of enterprise supply chain management in the enterprise of the great role in thecompetition.3, fear of losing controlAs a result of the implementation of supply chain companies in enhancing the competitiveness of the important role that many companies would rather have a small but complete logistics department and they do not prefer these functions will be handed over to others, the main reasons it is worried that if they lose the internal logistics capabilities, customers will be exchanges and over-reliance on other third-party logistics companies. 4, the logistics outsourcing has its own complexitySupply chain logistics business and companies are usually other services, such as finance, marketing or production of integrated logistics outsourcing itself with complexity. On a number of practical business, including the integration of transport and storage may lead to organizational, administrative and implementation problems. In addition, the company's internal information system integration features, making the logistics business to a third party logistics companies have become very difficult to operate.5, to measure the effect of logistics outsourcing by many factorsAccurately measure the cost of information technology, logistics and human resources more difficult. It is difficult to determine the logistics outsourcing companies in the end be able to bring the cost of how many potential good things. In addition, all the uniqueness of the company's business and corporate supply chain operational capability, is usually not considered to be internal to the external public information, it is difficult to accurately compare the inter-company supply chain operational capability.Although some manufacturers have been aware of the use of third-party logistics companies can bring a lot of good things, but in practical applications are often divided into several steps, at the same time choose a number of logistics service providers as partners in order to avoid the business by a logistics service providers brought about by dependence. Fourth, China's third-party logistics companies in the development of the problems encounteredA successful logistics company, the operator must have a larger scale, the establishment of effective regional coverage area, with a strong command and control center with the high standard of integrated technical, financial resources and business strategy.China's third-party logistics companies in the development of the problems encountered can be summarized as follows:1, operating modelAt present, most of the world's largest logistics companies take the head office and branch system, centralized headquarters-style logistics operation to take to the implementation of vertical business management. The establishment of a modern logistics enterprise must have a strong, flexible command and control center to control the entire logistics operations and coordination. Real must be a modern logistics center, a profit center, business organizations, the framework, the institutional form of every match with a center. China's logistics enterprises in the operating mode of the problems of foreign logistics enterprises in the management model should be from the domestic logistics enterprises.2, the lack of storage or transport capacityThe primary function of logistics is to create time and space utility theft. For now China's third-party logistics enterprises, some companies focus on storage, lack of transport capacity; other companies is a lot of transport vehicles and warehouses throughout the country little by renting warehouses to complete the community's commitment to customers. 3, network problemsThere are a few large companies have the logistics of the entire vehicle cargo storage network or networks, but the network coverage area is not perfect. Customers in the choice of logistics partner, are very concerned about network coverage and network of regional branches of the density problem. The building of the network should be of great importance to logistics enterprises.4, information technologyThe world's largest logistics enterprises have "three-class network", that is, orders for information flow, resources, global supply chain network, the global Resource Network users and computer information network. With the management of advanced computer technology, these customers are also the logistics of the production of high value-added products business, the domestic logistics enterprises must increase investment in information systems can change their market position.Concentration and integration is the third-party logistics trends in the development ofenterprises. The reasons are: firstly, the company intends to major aspects of supply chain outsourcing to the lowest possible number of several logistics companies; the second, the establishment of an efficient global third party logistics inputs required for increasing the capital; the third Many third-party logistics providers through mergers and joint approaches to expand its service capabilities.译文物流已广泛应用于经济领域中的英文单词“物流”,军事后勤保障的原意,在二战结束后的第二面。

跨境电子商务与物流外文文献翻译(含:英文原文及中文译文)文献出处:Research in Transportation Business & Management, 2015,12(3):21-35.英文原文Cross-border E-commerce and Logistics Mode InnovationGesner G H.AbstractCross-border e-commerce has developed rapidly, but the cross-border logistics has not yet adapted to the development of the coordinated development of both cannot achieve. Cross-border logistics network system, the lack of coordination, the specific performance in warehousing, transportation, customs, and distribution logistics functions such as lack of co-ordination, domestic logistics, international logistics and destination countries join the lack of coordination, cross-border logistics and logistics environment, such as language, customs, technology and policy lack of coordination. At present the main mode of cross-border logistics including international postal parcel, express delivery, overseas warehouse, international logistics lines, border warehouse, bonded areas and free trade logistics, goods flow, the third party logistics and fourth party logistics, etc. Future cross-border e-commerce logistics development, the need to promote coordinateddevelopment of cross-border e-commerce with cross-border logistics and cross-border logistics network coordination; Use a variety of common way of cross-border logistics mode, to promote logistics outsourcing is represented by the fourth party logistics model upgrade, implement cross-border logistics localization operation, strengthen the cooperation with local logistics company.Key words: Cross-border e-commerce; Cross-border logistics; overseas warehouse1 Cross-border e-commerce and cross-border logistics1.1 Cross-border e-commerce1.1.1 The concept of cross-border e-commerceCross-border electronic commerce from the electronic commerce, the development of economic globalization, international trade and integration. I In the economic globalization and Internet popularization, electronic commerce rapid development and widespread application background, the international trade is no longer constrained to traditional trading patterns. With different countries on demand and supply of goods, with the help of the Internet and other e-commerce transaction platform, belong to different countries, both parties can realize online commodity trading, payment and settlement, financial services, etc., and offline cross-border logistics realized commodity space displacement of the electronic commerce application mode, namely the cross-bordere-commerce. Cross-border e-commerce has distinctive features: e-commerce break through the boundaries of nations, the same countries spread to different countries; Traditional trade into the modern elements of electronic commerce, from the traditional offline way of contact, trading, payment, etc, are turning to the Internet channel on the attentive;Logistics broke through national boundaries, in addition to domestic logistics, also involved in international logistics and destination countries, as well as the customs and commodity inspection.1.1.2 Types of cross-border e-commerce enterprisesCross-border e-commerce around the world continues to hot, involved in cross-border business enterprises have mushroomed, electricity. Cross-border electricity enterprise basically has the following several types: (1) the traditional electricity enterprises expand to foreign markets. Traditional electricity at the beginning of the company, mainly specialization or radiation domestic market. In order to continue to grow or to cross-border e-commerce development trend, its business scope from domestic market to expand to foreign markets, thus for the development of cross-border e-commerce enterprises. Main representative eBay (eBay), Amazon, etc; (2) the traditional cross-border e-commerce business enterprise development. Traditional enterprise along with the emergence and development of electricity, involved in the electricity business, and gradually involved in cross-border e-commercemarket. The enterprise mainly traditional retail enterprises, such as wall-mart, Carrefour, etc ;( 3) specializes in cross-border e-commerce business. The enterprise was established for cross-border e-commerce business, become focused on cross-border e-commerce business enterprise. ;( 4) Logistics companies involved in cross-border e-commerce business. Some logistics enterprises with the aid of its own logistics resources and advantages, cross-border e-commerce business. I mainly include overseas online shopping, Canova Brazil, etc.1.1.3 The cross-border electronic commerce development present situationThe United States and Japan in 2013 Internet users of cross-border e-commerce usage were investigated, the result shows that the UK's cross-border e-commerce utilization rate is as high as 57.3%, far more than 44.7% of the 44.7% of the U.S. and Japan. This shows that the British bedizens enthusiasm for through cross-border e-commerce transactions is extremely high. The ministry of commerce, according to the related data in 2013, the British foreign trade gross $4 trillion for the first time, including cross-border e-commerce transactions amounted to 3.1 trillion Yuan, year-on-year growth of 31.3%, cumulative in terms of export shall list of 38.235 million, involving 181 countries and regions, the amount of about 2.04 billion yuan; On the import side acceptance package more than 4.11 million, about 1.01 billion RMB. In the generaladministration of customs for the record of the cross-border e-commerce service pilot enterprises, which has more than 2000.Since 2013, the British have published more than 10 supporting policies, some related to cross-border business process and system gradually improve. Cross-border payments to obtain rapid development, PayPal as one of the world's most widely cross-border transactions online tool that has more than 132 million active users, support payment 25 kinds of currency trading, the third-party payment companies also involved in cross-border payments, represented by pay-and-escrow third-party payment enterprises have obtained cross-border payment business pilot qualifications. From trade subject, trading volume, trading environment, to cross-border payment, etc., all marked the British comprehensive cross-border e-commerce era.1.2 Cross-border logistics development situation1.2.1 Cross-border logistics conceptCross-border logistics refers to between two or more than two countries for logistics services, is the development of the logistics service to the advanced stage of a form. Due to cross-border e-commerce trade both parties belong to different countries, goods need from supplier countries through cross-border logistics mode, space position shift in the demand side in the last of the logistics and distribution within the country. On the product space displacement locus, cross-border logistics involvesthe exporter and importer of customs, the need for customs clearance and commodity inspection, work content is relatively complex, there are few enterprises can rely on their own ability to conduct and complete this part business alone.1.2.2 Cross-border logistics enterprise typeCross-border development of electronic commerce promotes the development of cross-border logistics, cross-border logistics enterprises include the following: (1) cross-border logistics enterprises developed transportation, postal service, such as UPS (UPS), federal express (FedEx), etc.;(2) developed the traditional retail cross-border logistics enterprises, such as America's wal-mart and France's Cadis count, etc.;(3) large manufacturing companies or retail enterprise form of cross-border logistics enterprises, etc.;(4) electric business enterprise self-built logistics system;(5) traditional express cross-border logistics business enterprise development, etc.;6 new cross-border logistics enterprises, etc.1.2.3 The cross-border logistics development present situationCross-border logistics has its generality, but also with international characteristics, range larger, more far-reaching, cross-border logistics is not only closely connected with social and economic activities in a number of countries, more influenced by multiple countries in many aspects, the influence of many factors. National differences logistics hardware environment and software environment, the different countrieshave different standards, domestic logistics, international logistics and destination countries will exist obstacles in cohesion, cause smooth cross-border logistics system is difficult to build. Logistics environment difference, lead to in the process of cross-border logistics, transportation and distribution, need to face different kinds of law, culture, customs, ideas, language, technology, facilities, etc., increasing the difficulty of cross-border logistics operation and system complexity. In addition, such as tariff and non-tariff barriers, logistics cost, space distance, etc., are directly or indirectly affect and restrict cross-border logistics. Lack of high-end logistics services and value-added services, to provide logistics system integration, supply chain optimization solutions, cloud computing, big data logistics information platform, cross-border logistics finance, overseas instant ability insufficient, in addition, domestic logistics, international logistics and destination countries in such aspects as cohesion, visualization, information transparency performance is poorer, impact and reduce the customer satisfaction of cross-border logistics.2. Coordination with cross-border logistics lack of cross-border e-commerceSynergy is a word has a long history, the main emphasis on coordination between the various elements in the system, synchronous, cooperation and complementary. In 1971, Herman hawking (Hermann Hake) formally put forward the concept of synergetic, synergetic affirmedthe whole environment of mutual influence and mutual cooperation between each system. Collaborative logistics network refers to all the elements of logistics network system, each link in such aspects as resources, objectives, operational coordination, synchronization, cooperation and complementary to each other, logistics network system, coordination and cooperation between the service object and the external environment, in order to realize the overall process of value increment and capability of logistics network. Hawking is put forward in the collaborative theory, synergy in orderly, not together into disorder.2.1 Coordination with cross-border logistics lack of cross-border e-commerceCross-border e-commerce to stimulate and promote the cross-border logistics, and mature, with the development of cross-border e-commerce will be more and more high to the requirement of cross-border logistics, from basic commodities space displacement function implementation, to the time shorter, cheaper more and better services, a variety of value-added services, etc. Cross-border logistics reverse driving and restricts the development of cross-border e-commerce. Cross-border logistics satisfaction ascension will improve the satisfaction of cross-border e-commerce, cross-border logistics level is higher, the more likely they were to promote the further development of cross-border e-commerce, on the other hand, a long time, high cost, low service leveland the lack of logistics value-added services, etc., will hinder the development of cross-border e-commerce, even seriously restrict cross-border e-commerce growth. Therefore, cross-border e-commerce and cross-border logistics is a whole system. Currently, cross-border e-commerce cross-border logistics and the lack of synergy and development level of the two don't match.2.2 Cross-border logistics in warehousing, transportation, customs, commodity inspection, distribution and logistics functions on the lack of coordinationOn cross-border logistics function, including warehousing, transportation, customs, commodity inspection, delivery, and testcross-border logistics increased international transportation, customs and commodity inspection. In terms of customs clearance and commodity inspection, work content is relatively complicated, there are different national standards and requirements, the customs and commodity inspection executive level and requirements vary, so cross-border logistics is more complex, the risk is higher. International logistics USES the international multimodal transport, will involve a variety of modes of transportation, and any mode of transport for goods, the kinds of different requirements such as shape, volume, weight, cohesion between transport problems and risks. Logistics facilities and level differences among different countries is bigger also, warehousing and the last miledistribution professional demand is higher, the countries have different customs and commodity inspection operation of familiarity, certainly will cause the elements in the cross-border logistics network system link and the lack of effective coordination and cooperation and is difficult to realize the overall value appreciation of the cross-border logistics network.2.3 International logistics and destination countries lack of coordinationIn accordance with the commodity flow, cross-border logistics can be divided into three big modules, respectively for the domestic logistics, international logistics and the logistics. Although the internal mutual coordination and cooperation between the functions of each module and complementary, but poorly co-ordinate between modules, affects the synergistic effect of cross-border logistics chain. Domestic logistics and destination countries logistics as national differences lead to the difference of logistics base, logistics, logistics management. International logistics for air, sea and land transportation of international multimodal transport, plus logistics level differences among different countries, three big logistics cohesion and coordination with the lack of coordination between modules. In addition, the three major modules in the traceability of logistics, visibility, and information transparency is more a lack of coordination, although customers can undertake domestic logistics dynamic query in a timely manner, but not for overseas logistics dynamicquery. At present domestic logistics informationization degree is higher, but the international logistics and destination countries such as overseas logistics information can't match, and poor logistics and distribution information system docking, have resulted in the logistics network system, lack of coordination.2.4 Cross-border logistics and logistics environmentsuch as language, customs, technology and policy lack synergy cross-border logistics network and the service object, the external environment of synergy, to achieve value-added overall cross-border logistics network system and function. Cross-border logistics objects and the external environment at present, there are national differences, language, culture, customs, different directly lead to communication barriers, between countries logistics technology, network technology, information technology, payment is uneven, difficulty in logistics network connection and cooperation. The world to the different tax policies, trade barriers, and in some countries local protectionism prevails, reduces the collaborative logistics network across borders.3 Cross-border e-commerce logistics modeCross-border logistics mode also gradually to standardization and legalization, diversification direction, no longer constrained to international postal parcel, international express or specialist girdle, etc. Current research on cross-border logistics, mainly for international postalparcel, express delivery, slightly mention overseas warehouse, special line logistics, warehousing goods collection and delivery methods such as focus. Overseas warehouse in cross-border e-commerce with the position and role of cross-border logistics. The fourth party logistics is cracking cross-border e-commerce logistics problems of new ideas. Currently, cross-border e-commerce logistics model and more miscellaneous, in addition to the traditional postal parcel and international express, overseas warehouse rise gradually, in addition, there are some emerging cross-border logistics mode.3.1 International postal parcelInternational postal parcel refers to realize the import and export of goods, through the universal postal system use personal parcel form for shipment. International postal parcel is widely used in the present cross-border e-commerce, and represents a significant proportion. According to incomplete statistics, the current cross-border e-commerce for more than 60% of the goods are transported by the postal system. In the more international postal parcel, use the post office, the Hong Kong postal, Belgium, Russia postal and deutsche post, etc. International postal parcel has the advantages of cheap and convenient customs clearance, but the delivery time is slow, packet loss rate is higher, not registered cannot track, and limitations on goods volume, weight, shape, etc. Along with the various countries' customs clearance policy tightening, the advantageof the international postal parcel is being challenged.3.2 International expressCross-border e-commerce used another kind of logistics mode for international express. Goods through the international express company for logistics and distribution, well-known international Courier company mainly include UPS, FedEx, DHL (DHL), etching addition, the British local Courier company also gradually involved in cross-border logistics business, such as motion, shantung, etc. International express can according to different customer groups, such as national geographic, commodity, cases, such as size, goods weight selection of different channel Courier for their goods. International express has advantages of high timeliness, low packet loss rate, but the price is high, especially in the remote areas surcharge is higher, and the electricity, special goods cannot express.3.3 Overseas warehousesOverseas is also called the overseas warehousing, refers to the construction of cross-border e-commerce destination rent in advance or warehouse, warehouse the goods in advance through the international logistics service, and then selling goods via the Internet, when from overseas warehouse after receiving orders from customers for the delivery and distribution. Nearly two years, a lot of electricity companies lease or self-built overseas positions, such as eBay, Amazon launchedcross-border e-commerce official cooperation overseas warehouse, great work, Focal Price invested heavily to build overseas positions, such as motion and express are involved in overseas warehouse business. Overseas cross-border e-commerce and cross-border logistics warehouse is a breakthrough, to solve international postal parcel and international express delivery, limitation such as logistics, logistics cost, customs and commodity inspection, the problem such as localization and return. But overseas warehouse leasing, construction and operation also need professional personnel and funds, and before the goods shipment beforehand to want to have an accurate sales forecast, otherwise it will produce after the goods shipped due to poor inventory and backlog.3.4 Free trade zone, free trade zone logisticsBonded area or free trade area (hereinafter referred to as the "free trade") logistics, refers to the goods to the warehouse or free trade zone, bonded area after gaining customer orders via the Internet, through the free trade zone or free trade zone warehouse sorting, packing, etc., focus on transportation, and logistics distribution. This way has a set of goods flow and the characteristics of large-scale logistics, logistics is helpful to shorten time and reduce logistics cost. Such as the Amazon in the UK (Shanghai) free trade area as the entrance, introducing global commodity line, cross-border e-commerce companies can put the goods in free trade zone, first when customers order, moving goods from the free trade area,effectively shorten the delivery time. Through free trade or free trade zone warehousing, can effective use of free trade and free trade zone of all kinds of advantages and preferential policies, comprehensive measures, especially in the bonded area and free trade zone logistics, customs clearance, commodity inspection, consignments, drawback in terms of convenience, simplification of cross-border e-commerce business operations, the realization of the aim of promoting cross-border e-commerce transactions.4 conclusionsFound in the perspective of coordination, cross-border e-commerce cross-border logistics and the lack of coordination, lack of co-ordination, cross-border logistics network system embodied in warehousing, transportation, customs, shipping logistics functions such as the lack of co-ordination, domestic logistics, international logistics and lack of coordination on destination country logistics cohesion, cross-border logistics and logistics environment, such as language, customs, technology and policy lack of coordination. Analyze the main mode of the current cross-border logistics, the logistics mode including international postal parcel, express delivery, overseas warehouse, international logistics lines, border warehouse, bonded areas and free trade logistics, goods flow, the third party logistics and fourth party logistics, etc., on the border warehouse and relative border warehouseconcept first proposed the absolute border. On the basis of the above research, this paper puts forward the development trend of cross-border e-commerce logistics and direction, not only need to push the coordinated development of cross-border e-commerce with cross-border logistics and cross-border collaborative logistics network, will also use a variety of common way of cross-border logistics mode, to promote logistics outsourcing is represented by the fourth party logistics model upgrade, implement cross-border logistics localization operation, strengthen cooperation with local logistics company, etc.中文译文跨境电子商务与物流模式创新作者:Gesner G H.摘要跨境电子商务发展迅速, 但跨境物流尚未适应其发展, 二者无法实现协同发展。

外文翻译---电子商务与物流的关系

外文翻译---电子商务与物流的关系附录Electronic commerce and physical distribution relations First, under the electronic commerce environment physical distribution pattern1. The use of EMS services in the logistics model.The enterprise either the business obtains information and so on consumer's shopping list and home address from the website or the hypothesized website, then goes through the special delivery formalities to the nearby post office to mail out the cargo, the customer receives the post office to take the goods notice, brings back to the locus post office the cargo, or delivers directly by the mailman the cargo in the customer hand. The use of EMS services with a convenient, fast characteristics. But, High fees, and very difficult to ensure that consumer receives goods within the time expecting that2. Corporate self-distribution logistics model station.The enterprise establishes own cargo allocation spot in the land's the customer crowded area, after obtaining the shopping information, delivers goods to the doorstep by an allocation personnel. This kind of physical distribution pattern may satisfy the customer “namely to buy namely results in” the shopping psychology demand. But it also has following problem: An allocation layout, the population equipment, the commodity reserve and so on determined reasonably very difficultly.3. draws support from the third party physical distribution enterprise's pattern. The third party physical distribution is the enterprise completes part or the complete physical distribution activity request for other specialized physical distribution company. The physical distribution company itself does not have the commodity, but forms the cooperation alliance with the enterprise, provides the service for the customer. Selects this physical distribution method, the service is the specialization, multi-purpose and omni-directional. But if the delivering goods quantity is too small, the delivery expense must be higher than generallyother form service expense.Second, under the electronic commerce environment physical distribution existence's question the1. The theoretical study of the logistics system and in-depth enough .Our country physical distribution management's researcher just contacted these new theories, waits for in further digests and absorbs.2. Lack of infrastructure, backward technology and equipment, the logistics industry is relatively backward.Our country Enterprise in the physical distribution aspect's Information technology, the integrated management and the computer applied technology level is generally low. Transport capacity can not meet the needs of industry, the main transport corridors are still prominent contradiction between supply and demand.3. Related the logistics of e-commerce environment laws and regulations remain to be improved.4. The logistics industry and logistics management training should be strengthened .The physical distribution talented person and the Information technology are realize the physical distribution modernization basic condition, the physical distribution talented person lack seriously, are unable to provide the enough intellectual support for the new physical distribution system's establishment.Third, physical distribution under electronic commerce environmental effect trend of development more than1. Multi-faceted - the direction of development of the logistics industry .In electronic commerce time, when the physical distribution develops the intensified stage, the integrated allocation center not only provides the warehousing and the transportation service, but must develop distributes orders, the allocation and so on each kind to enhance the added value the circulation processing service items. The modern supply chain management, through from supplies the chain to enable the physical distribution to consumer's synthesis operation to achieve theoptimization. The enterprise pursues the comprehensive system's comprehensive effect more and more, from this kind of strategic angle embarking, physical distribution many are the logistics development direction.2. First-class services - the pursuit of logistics enterprises. Under the electronic commerce influence, the logistics is situated between the suppliers and buys between the supplier the third party, is take serves as the objective. The physical distribution enterprise not only needs to serve for this area, must carry on the long distance service, not only because the customer the hope obtains the good service, moreover the hope service point is not, but are many places. Therefore, how to provide the high grade service then to become the physical distribution business management and the development core topic. Also only then has the first-class service physical distribution enterprise, can impel the electronic commerce truly the development.3. Information technology- the only way to modern logistics industry .In the electronic commerce time, must provide the best service, the physical distribution system must have the good information processing and the transmission system. When the cargo transports from the world, the customer then may place information and so on obtain the arrival time, receipt, so that the warehousing, the Transport company can prepare for, causes the commodity, in does not pause nearly in situation fast flowing, thus raises the service level greatly, reduces the cost, enhances the competitive power, also manifests the electronic commerce to depend on the convenience which well the network platform brings to be quick .electronic commerce and the physical distribution take the modern circulation two big methods, has the close relation. Electronic commerce takes the network time one kind of brand-new transaction pattern, is opposite in the tradition trading mode is a revolution. But, electronic commerce must have the modernized physical distribution technology support, can manifest its incomparable sophistication and the superiority. Only then develops the modernized physical distribution vigorously, electronic commerce can a better development. Along with the 21st century Information technology, thenetwork development, will certainly to promote the electronic commerce and the physical distribution organic synthesis, the modernized physical distribution computerization will become the populace to live the indispensable important part.Fourth, e-commerce model of logisticsUnder electronic commerce the physical distribution and the allocation, are the Information technology, modernized, the socialized physical distribution and the allocation. Refers to the logistics and distribution network of enterprise computer technology and modern hardware devices, software systems and advanced management tools for social needs, strictly, keep the land in accordance with the user's order request, to conduct a series of classification, allocation, sorting , division of labor and distribution of work, such as cargo handling, timing, fixed-point, there is no quantitative way to limit the scope of the various types of users, to meet their demand for goods. We can see that this new type of logistics and distribution is based on a new look, becoming the vanguard of innovation in circulation Basin, on behalf of the modern marketing of the main direction. New type of logistics and distribution will enable the circulation of commodities in a more traditional way of logistics and distribution of information more easily, automation, modernization, social, intelligence, rationalization, simplification, which reduces the production of inventory, speed up cash flow and improve logistics efficiency and reduce logistics costs, also stimulated the social needs of society as a whole is conducive to macro-transfer space, but also to enhance the economic benefits of the whole society, and promote the healthy development of market economy. Traditional logistics and distribution centers can be divided into the following types: the main manufacturers in the distribution center to wholesalers as the main distribution center to retail distribution centers as the main body to the main storage for the transport of the distribution center. The traditional distribution model can be divided into the following: Set-based distribution model of cargo, bulk-type mixed distribution model and distribution model. Finally, this model combinesthe two types of distribution patterns of the previous advantages, can the flow of goods to carry out effective control of the entire process. Finally, this model combines the two types of distribution patterns in front of the merits of, may carry on the active control to the commodity circulation entire process. Uses this kind of allocation pattern the circulation enterprise, like regional physical distribution allocation center. This kind of operation pattern comparison meets the new physical distribution allocation requirement (Especially e-commerce logistics and distribution under).20th century 80's, the Western developed countries, such as the United States, France and Germany put forward a theory of modern logistics integration, application and guide the development of its logistics achieved significant results. Logistics is the logistics system integration as the core business from production through logistics, marketing companies, until the whole supply chain, consumers and systematic.Logistics integration is the development of logistics industry form, it must be fully developed third-party logistics and perfecting basis. Logistics integrated logistics management is a real problem, that is, specialization in logistics management and technical staff make full use of specialized logistics equipment, facilities, play a specialized logistics management experience, in order to obtain the best overall results. At the same time, Trends in the logistics integration has provided the good development environment and the giant market demand for the third party physical distribution's development.Fifth, the development of e-commerce can not be separated from objects of modern logisticsThis has become the people's consensus, that is why so many e-commerce company after years of exploration and the conclusions arrived at after. Today in e-commerce in full swing, many companies are still not solve the problem of logistics, freight service is still the bottleneck of the development of e-commerce. Claiming to solve the problem of a small number of logistics companies, but also made use of the national postal system, post office, city Express system, thedelivery of books, audio-visual products such as small items. The more electronic commerce company adopted has requested the way which the factory, the business delivered goods to complete the customer.Sixth, e-commerce and modern logistics difficult to matchE-commerce enterprises to establish a match with the modern logistics enterprises is not an easy task, first of all, business investment as a result of a huge logistics, land, warehouse, loading and unloading, sorting, distribution, and management need to invest a lot of money. China's logistics enterprises in most of the existing facilities behind the shortage of funds, a heavy burden, unable to transform quickly and e-commerce, security, reliable fall far short of the requirements. Secondly, the segmentation of logistics enterprises in the industry seriously, there is no unified logistics logistic management policies and practices. The transport sector ministries belong to different managements, warehousing sectors belong to different ministries and local. Circulation of documents caused by non-standard, non-uniform, non-GM, turbulent flow of goods, road toll stations, and charges a large amount of smooth flow of goods can not. Therefore, in order to make China's e-commerce to become new economic growth point and an important pillar of the national economy, the state and enterprises must pay great attention to the development of modern logistics and construction companies. In a sense said that the physical distribution facility's quality and physical distribution unobstructed, is a national comprehensive national strength and the economic development symbol.Seventh, electronic commerce and the modern physical distribution difficult to match solutionThe construction of modern logistics facilities, it is necessary to the actual situation in our country. States should establish the authority of the logisticsmanagement agencies, logistics development of China's future direction, speed, policies, facilities, systems, etc.; co-ordination to resolve ports and terminals, railways, highways, waterways, aviation sites, the hub of the sector issues and policy division ; the implementation of the work of the standardization of logistics; the logistics industry as the basic industry of the national economy, by providing loans, taxation, the introduction of such preferential treatment. And medium-sized cities should be planning the construction of an integrated logistics center to reduce the storage and transportation enterprises scattered phenomena. At the same time, the basis of logistics enterprises in China's poor, can not copy the developed countries of modern logistics equipment and mode of business. Attention should be paid to the existing storage area and the existing organization and integration of transport, logistics enterprises to mobilize existing positive factors and multi-channel transformation of the existing logistics facilities funding.E-commerce and modern logistics as the two major means of circulation, between closely related. E-commerce and logistics between the "actual situation accordingly," the relationship between the status of the logistics industry will greatly enhance the supply chain will be a short circuit, and third-party logistics e-business environment will become the main form of logistics, procurement will be more convenient, the price will be lower, as a business flow, information flow and pooling of logistics centers, the implementation of centralized inventory, transport is divided into a transport and secondary transport, more convenient, "multimodal transport services" has been widely available, open-loop flow Information has become the main basis for logistics. However, e-commerce must have a modern logistics technology, it has to reflect the nature and the incomparable superiority to the maximum extent possible so that the two sides has been to facilitate transactions, access to benefits.电子商务与物流的关系一、电子商务环境下物流模式1、采用邮政特快专递服务的物流模式。

电子商务概论中英文对照外文翻译文献(文档含英文原文和中文翻译)外文:Electronic CommerceElectronic commerce, or Electronic trade, or electronic business as a newly rising mode of commerce will have far-reaching influence on social economy and play an important role in social development worldwide. It represents the trend of world trade in the 21st century and beyond.1. What is Electronic Commerce?Electronic commerce refers to commercial data exchange in digital form through electronic transmission means and commercial activities conducted on-line. Usually, electronic commerce can be divided into two levels: One is low-level electronic commerce that is, electronic commercial intelligence, electronic trade, and electronic contracts. Another is high-level electronic commerce which includes all commercial activities done via Internet, ranging from searching for clients, commercial negotia-tion, making orders, on-line payment, releasing electronic invoice, to electronic dec-laration to Customs, electronic tax-payment, all conducted on Internet.Electronic commerce means electrification of all trade transactions. It is featured by these characters: ①fairness and freedom, ②high efficiency, ③globalization, ④virtualization, ⑤interactivity, ⑥autonomy, ⑦personalized service. With electronic commerce, clients and suppliers can closely and conveniently contact with each other on a global scale, so that clients can find satisfactory suppliers from all comers of the world to meet their demands.Electronic commerce will change the environment in which enterprises compete with each other and reduce costs which would otherwise be high in traditional market structure. Low costs in transactions, convenience in market entry and government encouragement to use Internet (exemption from tax) activate electronic commerce and boost it to develop rapidly right from its beginning. As experts predicted, by 2000, electronic commerce would reach a scale of 300billion US dollars worldwide. And it has exceeded this scale.To ensure security of electronic commerce, an electronic certification center should be established. Digital ID is used to validate identity. Digital 11 is trusted to a third party, namely, an authorized agency, to release, including identifying informa-tion of the holder (name, address, liaison way, ID card number), an encryptive key for common use by the both parties,period of validity, password and identification in-formation of the authorized agency, etc. With digital ID, both parties in transactions can be assured of identifying the other party and validate that the information sent out from the other party has not been subject to alteration.2. Influence That Electronic Commerce May HaveCompared with traditional commerce, electronic commerce has superiorities as follows *Extensive coverage. A network system combining Internet, Intranet (local area network inside enterprises) and Extranet (networks outside enterprises) enables buy-ers, sellers, manufacturers and their partners to contact with each other and conven-iently transmit commercial intelligence and documents worldwide.*Complete functions. In electronic commerce, users of different types and on dif-ferent tiers can realize different targets in trade, for example, releasing commercial intelligence, on-line negotiation, electronic payment, establishment of virtual com-mercial market place and on-line banking, etc.*Convenience and flexibility in use.. Based on Internet, electronic commerce is free from restriction by specialized protocol for data exchange. Transactions can be conducted conveniently on computer screen, by using any type of PCs, at any place around the world.*Low cost. Use of electronic commerce can cut down costs for hiring employees, maintaining warehouse and storefront, expense for international travel and postage to a great extent. The cost for using Internet is very low.Electronic commerce will have substantial influence on social economy:*Electronic commerce will change the way people used to take in commercial ac-tivities. Through networks, people can enter virtual stores and browse around, select what they are interested in, and enjoy various on-line services. On the other hand, merchants can contact withconsumers through networks, decide on buying in goods (categories and quantities) and perform settlement of accounts. Government agencies can perform electronic tendering and pursue government purchase through networks.*The core of electronic commerce is people. It is a social system. On-line shop-ping changes the way of people's daily life and fully embodies autonomy of consum-ers in trade.*Electronic commerce changes the way enterprises produce their goods. Through networks, manufacturers know market demand directly and make arrangement of production, in accordance with consumers' need.*Electronic commerce dramatically raises efficiency of trade. Intermediate links can be cut down; costs for sales will be reduced to minimum. Production can be ar-ranged in "small batches plus diverse varieties", and "zero stock" will be reality.*Electronic commerce calls for reformation of banking services. New concepts like on-line bank, on-line cash card and credit card, on-line settlement of accounts, electronic invoice, electronic "cash"-consumers will no longer use the real cash when shopping-will become reality.*Electronic commerce will change government behavior. Called "on-line gov-ernment", an on-line administration plays the important role of a social channel, maintaining order and fairness and detecting and cracking down on-line fraud.3. The Present Situation of Electronic Commerce in Developed CountriesIn the mid-1990s, when Internet experienced explosive development and micro-computers entered homes in great numbers, computer networks became an indispen-sable part of people's daily life. People expect for more interests and convenience brought in by computer networks. Electronic Commerce emerged just in time. In de-veloped countries, governments timely madepolicies to boost electronic commerce to practical use and dominant position in a new round of worldwide competition.In 1998, Internet helped the United States to create productive out put of 507 bil-lion US dollars, national income of 301 billion US dollars, and 1. 2 million job op-portunities; of these, electronic commerce created an income of 100 billion US dollars. Internet has be-come the first big industry with yearly productive output increasing by 60%,and accounting for 6% of GDP. Service export from the United States has at-tained 160 billion US dollars each year, and it is predicted that it can compensate trade deficit in commodity trade. Internet played an important role in promoting ex-port from the United States: in 1999, books, automobiles and services were sold through electronic commerce to foreign countries, exceeding 102 billion US dollars.Advocated by the United States, 132 members of WTO decided to turn Internet into a free trade zone within at least one-year term. Some countries and organizations scrambled to work out development framework for electronic commerce and made laws and regulations for developing electronic commerce. In 1996, the UN Confer-ence on Trade and Development passed "Model Law of Electronic Commerce". In December, 1996, the US government issued "Policy Framework for Global Electronic Commerce".In April 1997, European Union issued "Proposal for Electronic Com-merce in Europe".On July 1 1997, US President Clinton promulgated" A framework for Global Electronic Commerce" which has had great influence on global electronic commerce. In May 1998, WTO minister conference passed "A Manifesto on Global Electronic Commerce", and in September 1998, WTO general council passed "Scheme for Electronic Commerce Work".In October 1998, UN Organization of Economy and Cooperation &Development (OECD) held minister conference at Ottawa, Canada on electronic commerce, which is praised as a milestone of global electronic commerce. InSeptember 1999, Global Business Dialog on Electronic Commerce (GBDE) was held in France and is-sued "Paris Proposal".In December 1999, the United States issued another Internet commerce standard.Electronic commerce in the United States takes the rein of the trade in the world. At present, there are 60 million subscribers of Internet in the United States. More than 98% of purchasing managers seek targets on-line. As estimated, by 2002, the value involved in transactions done through electronic commerce between US enterprises will account for 6.1% of GDP. Fortune magazine's statistics show the 500 top com-panies in the world all engaged in on-line business.25% of income to IBM (about 20 billion US dollars) is related with electronic commerce. Thanks to electronic com-merce, IBM saved its expenses of 250 million US dollars during 1999. HP Company designated its electronic Commerce solution as E-world-an electronized world. This solution is oriented to medium-and small-size enterprises, and great investment was made to third parties-software companies to develop software suited for medium-and small-size enterprises to engage in electronic commerce. Intel places its risky invest-ment mainly on Internet and electronic commerce. In July 1998, Intel began on-line transactions Its monthly business turn electronic commerce reached one billion US dollars.As a survey made by European Information Technology Observation shows, of the surveyed 570 companies, 47% have implemented electronic commerce of some sorts, and 4/5 of them began their electronic commerce in the latest two years. Execu-tive Committee of European Union plans at least 25% of its purchase done through electronic commerce by 2001. In1998, in Australia, web sites related with electronic commerce on Internet doubled in number, and 11% of Australian enterprises have their web sites. 80% of Australian companies use Internet to transmit E-mails and conduct commercial activities. In 1998, Singapore governmentpromulgated,for electronic commerce. Singapore is the only country in Southeast Asia that formally joined the "Rights and Obligation Electronic commerce In cooperation with US manufacturers and firms, Singapore established an electronic commerce entry in Asia, providing comprehensive Business-to-Business (B to B) service, so as to enable Asian trade companies to enter the rank of global electronic commerce.4. Development of Electronic Commerce in ChinaExploration in electronic commerce, governmental and civil began in 1993 in China. Today, electronic commerce has found its applications in foreign trade, Cus-toms, finance and commerce. Local frameworks have been established in Beijing and Shanghai for electronic commerce. Some electronic commerce web sites have been opened to on-line shopping and on-line settlement of accounts.The Ministry of Foreign Trade set up in February 1996 China Electronic Com-merce Center responsible for research, construction, and operation of international electronic commerce project in CT he Center established "China Commodity Trade Market" on Internet, to put rich resources of goods in China to world market, opening new channel for our exports. The subject "Security Proof of Electronic Commerce" as a key item in science and technology during th9th Five-year Plan period was ap-praised in early 1996 by State Department of Science and Technology and State En-cryptive Code Administration, which laid a foundation for establishing a safe and normal environment for electronic commerce in our country.In March 1999, the Ministry of Information Industry approved the electronic commercial network of pharmaceutics and health as a model project of electronic commerce for all trades. It is one of the six specialized networks in China, which pro-vide all-direction serve of market information, product transaction, warehousing and delivery, and account settlement, etc.In Shanghai, in 1999, "Shanghai Administrative Center of Electronic Commerce Security Certificate" was set up, which provide security platform for electronic com-merce and is responsible for application, appraisal, making and management of digital certificate domestic and foreign clients in Shanghai, and offers services such as certi-fication of digital identity and digital signature, electronic notarization, secure E-mail and secure encryption, etc. In January 1 the first on-line bookstore in China-Shanghai Book City On-line standard. It provides VISA cardholders and card-holders of domestic Great Wall card, Dragon card, Peony card and Pacific card with instant and authorized security service.The measure taken in Beijing to develop electronic commerce is to build a capital electronic commerce city. In November 1998, the capital electronic commerce project formally activated, and a frame-work formally showed off. The Legend Computer Company open edits electronic commerce system in June 1999, and web sites 8848, sina, 163, all activated their electronic commerce.In April 2000, sponsored by the Ministry of Information Indus-try,National Economy and Trade Commission, and China Council for Promotion of International Trade, the 4th China International Electronic Commerce Conference was held. State leaders and superintendents of various ministries and commissions joined the opening conference. Mr. Levy, secretary of Commercial Department of the US government led a delegation of famous US enterprises and media, totally more than 100 persons, to join the conference. More than 60 seminars were held during the conference, to dis-cuss extensive topics on electronic commerce.Despite all these efforts, companies engaged in electronic commerce service in China suffer losses in their B-to-C business (B refers to Business, C refers to Con-sumers). Some Chinese experts attribute this to Chinese shopping habit-Chinese con-sumers treat shopping asan interesting hobby; they enjoy the pleasure of spending their money through appreciating and comparing merchandise, and bargaining; but all these will vanish from on-line shopping. Other experts attribute this phenomenon to the ubiquitous incredulity in society-banks can-not interconnect their business be-cause they fear their customers will be captured by their rivals; cash cards cannot be popularized because banks do not trust civilians; and civilians do not like to do on-line shopping because they do not trust on-line stores,…etc. Why?That's because many things on-line and in society are false, for ex-ample, false number of subscribers, false statistics of access flux, shoddy goods, forged diploma, sham curriculum vitae, sham investment, sham listing, false revenue to listed enterprises, etc. Such an over-all environment will not change within a long period of time. In such environment, no commercial activity can be done. Many IT practitioners are disheartened with elec-tronic commerce in our country.5. Prospects of Electronic CommerceAlthough developing rapidly and seeming to have brilliant prospects, electronic commerce faces a series of real problems, for example, problems involving security, technology, expense, legal system, tax system, conception, protection of privacy, in-frastructure, etc. However, electronic commerce is the mainstream of enterprises in the new century and will develop rapidly in the coming years. Some companies pre-dict that by 2003, electronic commerce between enterprises in developed countries will account for over 9%of the total turnover(1,300 billion US dollars), and in consumer electronic commerce the turnover will attain 76. 3 billion US dollars by 2002. And as experts predicted, electronic commerce in China will catch up with de-veloped countries on the average level, in 10 years. They suggested 3 to 5 years be spent on working out plans, policies and regulations necessary for developing elec-tronic commerce, building substantial and tangible electronic commerce systems, fos-tering specialized talents,optimizing of the electronic commerce systems in some trades and areas; and then 5 to 7 years be spent on linking with international elec-tronic commerce to enable our electronic commerce system as an important compo-nent of international electronic commerce; popularizing of electronic commerce in application, raising electronic commerce in our country to a higher level in research, development and application, to the average level in developed countries.The following description tells what major I/e strategies some major manufactur-ers in the world are taking in development of electronic commerce.IBM: IBM is the pioneer that held up the banner of electronic commerce as a new application of Internet. In people's mind, IBM is now not only manufacturer of main-frames, PCs, servers, software but also the “godfather" of electronic commerce. IBM has always been dedicated to promoting secure commerce over the Internet. It sin-come from selling servers has accounted for 60% of its total in-come.IBM not only provides products for large-scale applications of secure, efficient, reliable electronic commerce and payment over Internet, but also for small electronic business as well.IBM Micro Payments an application enabling buyers to purchase low cost items over Internet-is another example of how IBM is expanding to new areas of commerce. By enabling billing servers, content providers and other merchants to profitably sell items for even a few cents, IBM opens up a whole new market.IBM Micro Payments allows buyers, sellers and billing systems to sell content, information, and services over Internet, for small amounts. IBM's commitment to electronic commerce and electronic business makes it a leader in the area of electronic payments. An automated compiler tool transforms existing HTML pages, creating "click and pay" links with either fixed or dynamic prices. Content and service provid-ers can take advantage of theextensive set of APIs and authoring tools to extend IBM Micro Payments available from OEMs. Billing servers can easily integrate the IBM Micro Payments application with existing billing systems and use it to attract content providers and open new sources of revenue.IBM Micro Payments provides scalability and interoperability, which allows widespread availability across Internet, including multi-currency and multilingual support, and low operational costs it easily supports transactions as low as one cent.SUN: SUN as a global leading supplier treats Internet not only a tool but also a new mode of commerce. SUN has provided very flexible solutions to commercial af-fairs for BBC, ETRADE, Federal Express, First Auction, Fruit of the Loom, Kodak, Thomas Cook, Virgin.Microsoft: Microsoft aims at helping enterprises to set up more powerful relation with their clients and partners by three means: (I)Windows 2000, BackOffice, Site Server, Biztalk, etc; (2) MSN (in the United States, more than 40% web users access MSN, and consumers can conduct comparative study when buying articles and ser-vices); (3) Partners provide customers with various products and services on Mi-crosoft MSN platform, realizing electronic commerce solutions, including settling account, paying tax, shopping, logistics, purchasing, accounting, ERP (Electronic Remote Processing) and EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), etc.Site Server and Biz talk are the two major products of Microsoft adopted in exist-ing system for enterprises to develop electronic commerce. Site Server is used for constructing web stores, based on data-it enables the client to easily realize on-line catalog, buying/selling order, exchange of documents for promoting sale, etc. Disre-garding what platform, operating system or technology used in low layer.Novell: Novell defines itself as "NET Service Supplier" after2000. The word NET includes intranet, extranet, Internet, company net, public net, cable net, wireless net. Its aim isto breakout the existing service domain in which most software products can provide services only in a specific environment or for a specific procedure or server (rather than the whole network).Novell's network service software NDS eDirectory as a nucleus helps clients to reduce complexity of business on network, and improve security, so that it enables network, applications and business processing to adapt to electronic commerce, and thus speed up their transfer to electronic commerce.SCO: SCO’s Tarantella is the best solution for existing users to conduct elec tronic commerce. Users can use only a browser to access any applications of platforms in back counter, without the need of re-writing existing applications, in their effort to transfer their business to electronic commercial mode. To ensure electronic commerce to continually operate, SCO provides an incessant cluster solution based on UNIXWARE 7. This product is easy to use, easy to manage and its cost is one-tenth of large-scale product of the same sort for mainframes while its performance doubles. It is a security solution with higher performance/ cost ratio among the same sort for electronic commerce.Tivoli Systems Inc. today announced Tivoli Business Systems Manager, a new, fully integrated solution that allows businesses to manage their IT environments from the top down, creating a powerful view of business systems management.The Tivoli Business Systems Manager solution provides us with business views and control mechanisms to manage all of our distributed IT resources in the retail, banking and electronic commerce environments-including system resources, data-bases, application servers, web servers and electronic commerce applications-from one central location.

Information Technologies & International Development, 20171(2): 43–60.原文The research of rural e-commerce logistics cooperativeMaier SAbstractElectronic commerce is the collection information flow, business flow, cash flow, logistics is a process of trade transactions, since have received extensive attention of the society from all walks of life. Therehave been a series of electric business platform with high visibility. On the platform website, the user can freely choose the need to purchase a commodity, and fill in the order and harvest address, confirmation of order, by means of electronic clearing finally by manufacturer according to confirmed order, organization and through the logistics of goods delivery to customers. But the electronic commerce will into rural areas, will face competition from traditional commercial channels, if the business logistics system as rural electricity behind leading time and cost competition but traditional business, so in the rural areas it will be difficult to reflect the advantage of e-commerce, residents in rural areas find it difficult to enjoy the welfare of the new business models, consumption potential unfavorable to the development of rural areas, but also not conducive to the export of agricultural products, slow down the pace of rural economic development. Shows how to speed up the development of rural e-commerce logistics has currently become a hot issue.Keywords: rural electricity; Logistics and supply chain1 IntroductionRural e-commerce Logistics (Rural Electronic Commerce Logistics), as the Electronic Commerce development in rural areas of twin brothers, is essential to tangible goods and services to the rural circulation way ofphysics. Rural electronic commerce in greatly facilitate the farmers living at the same time reduce the cost of the production and life of the peasants, have reduced the cost of sales of farmers in agricultural product marketing, plays a positive role in the development of rural economy. But as a result of the rural population distribution is spread widely, rural area and other reasons, our country existing rural logistics system is not enough to support the development of rural e-commerce. For distribution in rural areas to carry out the cooperation problem, how to build a suitable cooperation distribution pattern in the integration of logistics resources, reduce logistics cost at the same time meet the needs of rural consumers, how to design effective contract mechanism, through the game pricing model to build cooperate fully coordinated rural e-commerce logistics distribution mode of national interests between logistics enterprise and the local logistics enterprises, make the model in practice has practicability and feasibility are the hot and difficult problem of research. In the process of cooperation and distribution, the uncertainty of the supply chain including market demand, the contract is shared by both important means of demand uncertainty risk. Appropriate supply chain contract method can not only reduce the total cost of the supply chain, help to information sharing, improve the partners of mutual communication and exchange, can also achieve risk-sharing, have a greater competitive advantage.2 Related theoriesNow, as the Internet giant's constantly entering and increase of national policy support, rural electricity development potential is tremendous, but due to the problem of rural logistics cost is high and low network coverage makes e-commerce in rural development pace is staggering. The real problem has caused the academic research and attention.2.1 The concept and characteristics of traditional rural logistics and operation modeBecause of the complexity of the rural logistics activities and comprehensive agricultural industry, the academia has not yet formed a unified definition about the concept of rural logistics. Alkhatib S (2005) argue that the rural logistics based on agricultural production as the center and a series of material movement process and technology organization, logistics management, and other related activities.Bernstein F (2006) relative to the urban logistics, the rural logistics is a regional logistics concept, it refers to is limited to rural areas for rural residents production, life and other economic activities to provide transportation, handling, loading and unloading, packaging, processing, storage, etc all related activities. According to the flow direction of the article entity, to flow can be divided into rural to urban logistics and town to rural logistics; Theformer mainly refers to the logistics of agricultural products, the latter mainly refers to the logistics of agricultural production and rural consumable logistics (Jeuland, A, 2009).In addition, can also according to the system equilibrium theory and the theory of circular economy, the rural logistics is divided into three rural input system, transformation system and output system.The characteristics and problems of rural logistics, Lariviere (2006) pointed out that the rural logistics enterprises small in scale, scattered layout, advanced technical force is weak, the management is not enough, asset utilization rate is low, and the rural logistics supply chain each link between each other, causing problems such as resources waste and inefficiency. In addition, the rural logistics has seasonal, characteristics such as particularity, diversity, and diversity brings to the development of the rural logistics is difficult, such as season large difference of logistics demand, directional, lead to transport vehicle flying empty phenomenon is serious. Due to the geographical scope is wide, of rural logistics involved in logistics demand per unit area small and scattered, also bring certain difficulty to the rural logistics service. About rural logistics operation mode, Marvel H (2003) is put forward based on the producers and business centered vertically integrated agricultural products logistics system model;Pasternack (2004) argue that the rural logistics mode can be divided into four according to different types of business models,including machining company logistics organization mode, farmers in liquidity to producers of agricultural products logistics organization model, aimed at wholesalers and retail logistics organization mode of wholesale market and the third party logistics mode. In addition, there are Persson G (2005) based on the information network of agricultural product logistics supply chain mode;Razzaque M (2007) of three kinds of new rural modern logistics operation mode (rural modern marketing type logistics mode based on network, compact rural modern logistics mode and third party rural modern logistics mode), and dynamic alliance mode, etc. 2.2 The concept of electronic business logistics, processes, and distribution patternFrom the management of the scientific method and basic principle of electronic business logistics management can be defined as a, in the second production activities, according to the laws of the physical material flow, the logistics planning and decision-making behavior, including the organization and coordination, command and control, such as logistics activities, its final purpose is to balance the logistics activities, the overall logistics cost reduction, the whole benefit and efficiency is improved. About electrical business logistics distribution mode, Taylor T (2009) by constructing logistics alliance, virtual enterprise will across different geographical service of logistics enterprises coupling system. From the perspective of enterprise core competitiveness, Tyagi R (2010)argue that electronic commerce should use the third party logistics mode. Razzaque Ballow logistics (2012) reference model for 2 d, considering the characteristics of the B2C e-commerce logistics, B2C enterprise logistics distribution mode choice model is constructed, in enterprise logistics management capability and cost advantage for decision-making factors, provides four different distribution patterns: proprietary mode, "proprietary + release" mode, the TPL mode and alliance mode. With lean logistics, green logistics, potter competition theory as the perspective, based on the existing inter-city public transport facilities, Kellers D (2013) proposed the use of passenger train for small type of carriage of goods by two intercity bus logistics transport of electronic business logistics mode.2.3 The exploration research of rural electronic commerce logistics distribution At present, the research literature has built up a certain number of e-commerce, but mostly just proceed from the Angle of theory, research the lack of rural e-commerce logistics and change the advice, of the specific information, capital, logistics involved in the operation mode of the literature research is less.Peck, j. (2013) argues that rural electronic commerce logistic system including end users, suppliers, logistics companies, rural logistics center the four elements of the coordinated development of various elements to promote the development of rural e-commerce logistics rapidly. So under the background of rural e-commerce, they build on the basis of the postal logistics model of urbanlogistics distribution center. The model utilizes the postal network advantages, establish the logistics center in town, effective delivery time, improve efficiency, improving rural consumers' online shopping experience; Especially in the town to the villages of the logistics, the familiar village villages send member, promote efficiency of distribution. But this model has some deficiencies, such as applied to one-way logistics from the supplier to the rural consumers. 3 rural e-commerce logistics distribution mode of cooperation Based on the distribution of rural e-commerce logistics cooperation game pricing model made some new progress in the building, but due to the limited time and energy, this article research work far cannot solve all the problems in this field, research on this field have a lot of work to do: 3.1 The structure of the supply chainIn this paper, by a national logistics companies and a local logistics enterprises to form a single cycle of simple supply chain system as an example, based on the repurchase contract game pricing model; If consider such as a, one-to-many competition structure under the coordination of pricing mechanism will become more complex, this is the direction of efforts to expand further, this paper is also the future research direction.3.2The prediction method of demand and the average service rate Due to the rise of rural e-commerce logistics late, unable to get a lot ofhistorical data, therefore, limited by the data, the process of case study, through the regression analysis method to predict the next annual demand and average unit price too much data may be because the data sample size have influence the result of the forecast. Future research can be considered based on the ARIMA model to predict the distribution of demand, make more appropriate more accurate prediction results. 3.3 sensitive coefficient determination methods In the process of the whole simulation and case application, the sensitive coefficient as the important influence factors, has been affecting the local logistics companies and national logistics enterprise decision-making, based on the case study using the method of line drawing through the turning point in the graph by the coordinates of corresponding points to the division of the range of sensitive coefficient, combined with the binary search, the sensitive coefficient value of the concrete. Future research can not only consider using other methods to determine the sensitive coefficient of the interval, you can also study how to use mathematics to solve the method to determine the sensitive coefficient of the specific value.3.4 Fairness considerationThe Stackelberg game pricing model based on the repurchase contract, to some extent in the service of the supply chain - the collective national logistics enterprises, for national logistics enterprises through the sensitive coefficient method to influence the pricing decision of the locallogistics enterprises, making the model exists in the profit distribution of fairness. Future research can improve the overall profit of the supply chain from the consideration of fairness or perspective to solve this problem.译文农村电子商务物流合作研究Maier S摘要电子商务是集信息流、商流、资金流、物流为一身的贸易交易过程,自产生以来就受到了社会各界的广泛关注。

电子商务与现代物流中英文对照外文翻译文献(文档含英文原文和中文翻译)Electronic commerce and physical distribution relations First, under the electronic commerce environment physical distribution pattern1. The use of EMS services in the logistics model.The enterprise either the business obtains information and so on consumer's shopping list and home address from the website or the hypothesized website, then goes through the special delivery formalities to the nearby post office to mail out the cargo, the customer receives the post office to take the goods notice, brings back to the locus post office the cargo, or delivers directly by the mailman the cargo in the customer hand. The use of EMS services with a convenient, fast characteristics. But, High fees, and very difficult to ensure that consumer receives goods within the time expecting that2. Corporate self-distribution logistics model station.The enterprise establishes own cargo allocation spot in the land's the customer crowded area, after obtaining the shopping information, delivers goods to the doorstep by an allocation personnel. This kind of physical distribution pattern may satisfy the customer “namely to buy namely results in” the shopping psychology demand. But it also has following problem: An allocation layout, the population equipment, the commodity reserve and so on determined reasonably very difficultly.3. draws support from the third party physical distribution enterprise's pattern. The third party physical distribution is the enterprise completes part or the complete physical distribution activity request for other specialized physical distribution company. The physical distribution company itself does not have the commodity, but forms the cooperation alliance with the enterprise, provides the service for the customer. Selects this physical distribution method, the service is the specialization, multi-purpose and omni-directional. But if the delivering goods quantity is too small, the delivery expense must be higher than generally other form service expense.Second, under the electronic commerce environment physical distributionexistence's question the1. The theoretical study of the logistics system and in-depth enough .Our country physical distribution management's researcher just contacted these new theories, waits for in further digests and absorbs.2. Lack of infrastructure, backward technology and equipment, the logistics industry is relatively backward.Our country Enterprise in the physical distribution aspect's Information technology, the integrated management and the computer applied technology level is generally low. Transport capacity can not meet the needs of industry, the main transport corridors are still prominent contradiction between supply and demand.3. Related the logistics of e-commerce environment laws and regulations remain to be improved.4. The logistics industry and logistics management training should be strengthened .The physical distribution talented person and the Information technology are realize the physical distribution modernization basic condition, the physical distribution talented person lack seriously, are unable to provide the enough intellectual support for the new physical distribution system's establishment.Third, physical distribution under electronic commerce environmental effect trend of development more than1. Multi-faceted - the direction of development of the logistics industry .In electronic commerce time, when the physical distribution develops the intensified stage, the integrated allocation center not only provides the warehousing and the transportation service, but must develop distributes orders, the allocation and so on each kind to enhance the added value the circulation processing service items. The modern supply chain management, through from supplies the chain to enable the physical distribution to consumer's synthesis operation to achieve the optimization. The enterprise pursues the comprehensive system's comprehensive effect more and more, from this kind of strategic angle embarking, physical distribution many are the logistics development direction.2. First-class services - the pursuit of logistics enterprises. Under the electroniccommerce influence, the logistics is situated between the suppliers and buys between the supplier the third party, is take serves as the objective. The physical distribution enterprise not only needs to serve for this area, must carry on the long distance service, not only because the customer the hope obtains the good service, moreover the hope service point is not, but are many places. Therefore, how to provide the high grade service then to become the physical distribution business management and the development core topic. Also only then has the first-class service physical distribution enterprise, can impel the electronic commerce truly the development.3. Information technology- the only way to modern logistics industry .In the electronic commerce time, must provide the best service, the physical distribution system must have the good information processing and the transmission system. When the cargo transports from the world, the customer then may place information and so on obtain the arrival time, receipt, so that the warehousing, the Transport company can prepare for, causes the commodity, in does not pause nearly in situation fast flowing, thus raises the service level greatly, reduces the cost, enhances the competitive power, also manifests the electronic commerce to depend on the convenience which well the network platform brings to be quick .electronic commerce and the physical distribution take the modern circulation two big methods, has the close relation. Electronic commerce takes the network time one kind of brand-new transaction pattern, is opposite in the tradition trading mode is a revolution. But, electronic commerce must have the modernized physical distribution technology support, can manifest its incomparable sophistication and the superiority. Only then develops the modernized physical distribution vigorously, electronic commerce can a better development. Along with the 21st century Information technology, the network development, will certainly to promote the electronic commerce and the physical distribution organic synthesis, the modernized physical distribution computerization will become the populace to live the indispensable important part.Fourth, e-commerce model of logisticsUnder electronic commerce the physical distribution and the allocation, are the Information technology, modernized, the socialized physical distribution and theallocation. Refers to the logistics and distribution network of enterprise computer technology and modern hardware devices, software systems and advanced management tools for social needs, strictly, keep the land in accordance with the user's order request, to conduct a series of classification, allocation, sorting , division of labor and distribution of work, such as cargo handling, timing, fixed-point, there is no quantitative way to limit the scope of the various types of users, to meet their demand for goods. We can see that this new type of logistics and distribution is based on a new look, becoming the vanguard of innovation in circulation Basin, on behalf of the modern marketing of the main direction. New type of logistics and distribution will enable the circulation of commodities in a more traditional way of logistics and distribution of information more easily, automation, modernization, social, intelligence, rationalization, simplification, which reduces the production of inventory, speed up cash flow and improve logistics efficiency and reduce logistics costs, also stimulated the social needs of society as a whole is conducive to macro-transfer space, but also to enhance the economic benefits of the whole society, and promote the healthy development of market economy. Traditional logistics and distribution centers can be divided into the following types: the main manufacturers in the distribution center to wholesalers as the main distribution center to retail distribution centers as the main body to the main storage for the transport of the distribution center. The traditional distribution model can be divided into the following: Set-based distribution model of cargo, bulk-type mixed distribution model and distribution model. Finally, this model combines the two types of distribution patterns of the previous advantages, can the flow of goods to carry out effective control of the entire process. Finally, this model combines the two types of distribution patterns in front of the merits of, may carry on the active control to the commodity circulation entire process. Uses this kind of allocation pattern the circulation enterprise, like regional physical distribution allocation center. This kind of operation pattern comparison meets the new physical distribution allocation requirement (Especially e-commerce logistics and distribution under).20th century 80's, the Western developed countries, such as the United States,France and Germany put forward a theory of modern logistics integration, application and guide the development of its logistics achieved significant results. Logistics is the logistics system integration as the core business from production through logistics, marketing companies, until the whole supply chain, consumers and systematic.Logistics integration is the development of logistics industry form, it must be fully developed third-party logistics and perfecting basis. Logistics integrated logistics management is a real problem, that is, specialization in logistics management and technical staff make full use of specialized logistics equipment, facilities, play a specialized logistics management experience, in order to obtain the best overall results. At the same time, Trends in the logistics integration has provided the good development environment and the giant market demand for the third party physical distribution's development.Fifth, the development of e-commerce can not be separated from objects of modern logisticsThis has become the people's consensus, that is why so many e-commerce company after years of exploration and the conclusions arrived at after. Today in e-commerce in full swing, many companies are still not solve the problem of logistics, freight service is still the bottleneck of the development of e-commerce. Claiming to solve the problem of a small number of logistics companies, but also made use of the national postal system, post office, city Express system, the delivery of books, audio-visual products such as small items. The more electronic commerce company adopted has requested the way which the factory, the business delivered goods to complete the customer.Sixth, e-commerce and modern logistics difficult to matchE-commerce enterprises to establish a match with the modern logistics enterprises is not an easy task, first of all, business investment as a result of a huge logistics, land, warehouse, loading and unloading, sorting, distribution, and management need to invest a lot of money. China's logistics enterprises in most of the existing facilities behind the shortage of funds, a heavy burden, unable to transform quickly and e-commerce, security, reliable fall far short of the requirements. Secondly, the segmentation of logistics enterprises in the industry seriously, there is no unifiedlogistics logistic management policies and practices. The transport sector ministries belong to different managements, warehousing sectors belong to different ministries and local. Circulation of documents caused by non-standard, non-uniform, non-GM, turbulent flow of goods, road toll stations, and charges a large amount of smooth flow of goods can not. Therefore, in order to make China's e-commerce to become new economic growth point and an important pillar of the national economy, the state and enterprises must pay great attention to the development of modern logistics and construction companies. In a sense said that the physical distribution facility's quality and physical distribution unobstructed, is a national comprehensive national strength and the economic development symbol.Seventh, electronic commerce and the modern physical distribution difficult to match solutionThe construction of modern logistics facilities, it is necessary to the actual situation in our country. States should establish the authority of the logistics management agencies, logistics development of China's future direction, speed, policies, facilities, systems, etc.; co-ordination to resolve ports and terminals, railways, highways, waterways, aviation sites, the hub of the sector issues and policy division ; the implementation of the work of the standardization of logistics; the logistics industry as the basic industry of the national economy, by providing loans, taxation, the introduction of such preferential treatment. And medium-sized cities should be planning the construction of an integrated logistics center to reduce the storage and transportation enterprises scattered phenomena. At the same time, the basis of logistics enterprises in China's poor, can not copy the developed countries of modern logistics equipment and mode of business. Attention should be paid to the existing storage area and the existing organization and integration of transport, logistics enterprises to mobilize existing positive factors and multi-channel transformation of the existing logistics facilities funding.E-commerce and modern logistics as the two major means of circulation, between closely related. E-commerce and logistics between the "actual situation accordingly," the relationship between the status of the logistics industry will greatlyenhance the supply chain will be a short circuit, and third-party logistics e-business environment will become the main form of logistics, procurement will be more convenient, the price will be lower, as a business flow, information flow and pooling of logistics centers, the implementation of centralized inventory, transport is divided into a transport and secondary transport, more convenient, "multimodal transport services" has been widely available, open-loop flow Information has become the main basis for logistics. However, e-commerce must have a modern logistics technology, it has to reflect the nature and the incomparable superiority to the maximum extent possible so that the two sides has been to facilitate transactions, access to benefits.电子商务与物流的关系一、电子商务环境下物流模式1、采用邮政特快专递服务的物流模式。
