The presence of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is omniscient, led by full force emergence of technologies that make biological, physical, and digital worlds borderless. All industries which jump on the bandwagon, can observe convergence and merging of bushiness happening within, between and across industries. As the shipping and port logistics industry is said to be in eye of this storm, the purpose of this study is to investigate the shipping and port logistics industry's awareness regarding 4th IR, as well to identify necessary countermeasures in responding to progression of this trend. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) methodology was then used to compare the importance of four phases of countermeasures, reviewed by experts in the field. Results showed that countermeasures should be first orchestrated to the 'Merging and Integration of Inter-industry', then followed by 'P reemptive Introduction of Advanced Technology', 'Expansion of Intra-industry Businesses', and eventually 'Automation, Unmanned Technology'. Last but not least, four phases of countermeasures which should be introduced and executed one phase after another, are outlined for the shipping and port logistics industry to boost its competitiveness in addressing this progressive trend.

Purpose: The study attempts to explore the operational performance of the existing Malaysian logistics companies and the extent of their adoption of digitalization. The role of digitalization in enhancing the performance of companies in the logistics industry in Malaysia, for value creation, is the topic of study. Research design, data and methodology: A qualitative research method with a semi-structured interview approach was applied and judgmental sampling was used as the sampling technique to collect data. The research has chosen nine companies in the logistics industry in Peninsular Malaysia, with the interviews aimed at eleven members of top and middle-level management. Data analysis was performed using logical system techniques to examine and evaluate data, reorganizing feedback, comparing it with literature, and transforming it into structured, valuable information after interviews. Results: The study revealed mixed opinions on digitalization in logistics, despite its potential benefits such as improved operational efficiency, real-time information, and customer service. However, high costs may hinder financial performance and require revisions due to stakeholder involvement. Conclusions: The Malaysian logistics industry's adoption of digitalization is gaining traction, with most companies satisfied with their status. However, challenges like cost and inefficiency persist, prompting calls for government support to improve efficiency and reduce costs while ensuring sustainable transportation.

한국 물류산업은 양적인 측면에서 물류전문인력의 부족과 질적인 측면에서 산업계 요구에 부응한 실무 전문가를 양성해야 하는 이중고에 처해 있다. 본 연구는 국내와 해외 물류인력 양성교육을 상호 비교해 보고 디지털 시대에 필요한 물류인력의 역량과 기술들을 제시함으로써 국내 물류인력 양성정책에 대한 시사점을 도출하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 먼저 국내 대학의 물류교육과정 전수조사를 통해 물류인력의 수급상황을 검토하였고, 해외의 성공적인 물류분야 교육훈련 프로그램에 대한 사례분석을 시도하였으며, 심도있는 문헌연구를 통해 물류인력에 요구되는 기술과 역량을 종합적으로 제시하였다. 향후 효과적인 물류인력 양성을 위해서는 첫째, 국가표준물류역량지도의 작성과 이를 토대로 국가물류 역량개발 통합플랫폼 구축, 둘째, 물류인력양성을 위한 산학교육훈련 생태계 조성, 셋째, 디지털전환과 COVID-19 팬데믹에 대응한 신규 물류인력을 육성을 위한 교육프로그램 등이 필요하다.

The purpose of this work is to analyze the factors, criteria and importance that shippers in the international logistics industry take into account in choosing third-party logistics, and thereby to propose the directions of the areas and functions that third-party logistics will need to enhance on the basis of Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) methodology. To do that, this work collected and analyzed materials about changing environments of logistic industry and previous studies, and especially conducted a questionnaire survey on the factors to choose third-party logistics with the study subjects of shippers in the international logistics industry. To draw attribute factors, this work repeatedly chose and classified candidate factors through Delphi technique on the basis of the data of previous studies. The analysis results are presented as follows: regarding pairwise comparison between logistic cost and logistic service in relation of conflict, logistic service was recognized to be more important than logistic cost; regarding pairwise comparison between corporate capability and logistic cost, logistic cost was recognized to be more important; and regarding comprehensive evaluation, logistic service factors, including accuracy of order handling, service reliability, freight damage and compensation, a degree of fulfillment of promise, quality of transportation, and problem-solving ability, were found to be in high position.

The change of the development of transport and logistics systems occurs with the active change of technology and the advent of the era of Industry 4.0. It requires modernization of approaches to the development of transport and logistics systems at the macro and micro levels. The present study aims to identify perspective directions of development and evolution, find out the existing obstacles in the integration of technological solutions of transport and logistics systems at the macro and micro levels. This study is based on a quantitative and qualitative methodology for assessing the level of integration of technologies into transport and logistics systems to study the prospects for their development at the micro level. Macroeconomic indicators of transport and logistics in the context of different regions of the world were used to quantify the development prospects. For a qualitative assessment of the development of the transport and logistics system, the case study method was used. The object of the study was selected logistics company Sensco Logistics Inc., Austin TX. At the macro level, countries with more innovative logistics sectors have stronger mechanisms for coordinating private sector activities. Simplification of administrative procedures of control and regulation by the public sector in order to facilitate trade between countries is a promising direction for the development of transport and logistics systems. Such reforms are more effective in developing a "rigid" transport infrastructure. The integration of Industry 4.0 technology solutions into the international logistics sector is defined by political and legal barriers, especially in developing countries. In low-income countries, hard and soft infrastructure reforms are hindering the development of logistics companies that provide transport services. This determines the national level of development of transport and logistics systems, and in general the global level of development of transport and logistics. In developed countries, the legal barriers to the development of new technological logistics are environmental requirements for the integration of technologies into the transport system. These trends are slowing down the development of International Logistics, which, compared to other industries, is slower to integrate Industry 4.0 technologies. This study combines macroeconomic factors that determine the prospects for the development of transport and logistics systems at the micro level.

동북아 지역의 경제 규모 및 교역량이 증가하고 대외적으로 물류산업의 환경이 격변하는 상황에서 우리나라 물류산업의 경쟁력은 선진국 및 선진물류기업에 비해 취약하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 물류산업의 현황파악 및 경쟁력 향상 방안도출을 위해 DEA-ANP 결합모형을 이용하여 우리나라 물류산업의 상대적인 효율성을 분석하였다. 투입변수로는 종업원수, 고정자산, 자본총계, 운영비용을 산출변수로는 매출액과 당기순이익을 사용하였다. 분석결과 2003년부터 2005 년까지의 효율성 평균은 0.175로, 현재 투입물의 17.5%만을 효율적으로 사용하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 효율성이 가장 높은 업종은 전체 효율성 평균이 0.3692인 해상운송업으로. 매출액 및 효율성 상위그룹에서 차지하는 비율도 크게 나타나 해상운송업이 우리나라 물류산업의 효율성에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 우리나라 물류 산업전반에 걸쳐 존재하는 비효율을 개선하기 위해서는 종업원 수의 과다투입을 줄여야 하며 매출액 증대를 위해 물류업체의 대형화 및 전문화를 통한 서비스 영역 확대. 지속적 투자, 활발한 해외진출 및 물류 수요 유치등의 노력이 필요하다.

This study proposed a logistics plan for sending supply to be distributed to areas other than producing areas to wholesalers and allocating supply to be distributed to areas near producing areas to local distribution center in the vicinity instead of shipping the entire quantity to wholesalers for fruits auction to increase the competitive edge of the domestic fruits and vegetables logistics market in the ear of infinite competition. A video auction-based short distance division logistics operation model was developed to enhance competitiveness related to the circulation of fruits and vegetables, reduce logistics costs, and rationalize logistics by distributing the items sent to wholesalers through field auction and the shipments at local distribution center to neighboring areas through video auction connected to wholesalers real-time. The study especially came up with a logistics rationalization plan by examining and analyzing the stages and costs of transportation between producing areas and wholesalers on the circulation routes of fruits.
