This applies to all micro and macro logistic subsystems. More than 100 members of the WK logistics represent with their specific research and theory themes the typical cross-sectional character of logistics. Wissenschaftliche Kommission – WK) Logistics is promoting logistics within business research and theory. At the Lichtenberghaus of the TU Darmstadt the Department of Management and Logistics served for the right atmosphere. Keeping to tradition, the winter meeting provided a wide range of different presentations within the topic of logistics. The winter session of the WK logistics took place on 18th and 19th January 2013 in Darmstadt. In retrospect of a successful conference in Darmstadt, the organisation team is already looking forward to the fourth ICPLT which is anticipated to take place from the 27th-28th march 2019.įor more information on ICPLT, please follow this link: This year, the contribution “Shipment size modelling and the impact of latent class: comparison of French and German results” by Raphael Piendl, Martin Koning, François Combes and Gernot Liedtke received the award. It is intended to honour the most outstanding contribution to IPLT's scope of research in terms of interdisciplinarity, innovation of content, scientific attractiveness and practical relevance. On the last conference day, the awarding of the “Best Paper award” took place.

Finally, Anne Friedrich presented her contribution with the title “A planning approach for the implementation of Lean in-house transport systems in brownfield plants”. Furthermore, he gave an insight into the research of “Simulation-based analysis of the effects of differences in demand on user behavior n multi-user warehouses” together with Jan-Karl Knigge. Elbert himself presented several of his research projects at the conference: Together with Katrin Scharf, he talked about the topic “The influence of digitalization on the port choice behavior”. The main target of the conference is to analyse mutual dependencies and conflicts of interest between the areas of production, logistics and traffic and to find scientific and application-oriented solution approaches. The conference addresses an interdisciplinary audience concerned with the disciplines of production, logistics and traffic and serves as a platform for knowledge-exchange and networking. Elbert was presiding the organization committee. The conference is located alternately at TU Darmstadt and TU Dortmund and takes place every two years. From the 25th – 26th of September, the third Interdisciplinary Conference on Production, Logistics and Traffic (ICPLT) took place in Darmstadt.
