ASEAN logistics network model and algorithm

Abstract

Reasonable layout of logistics centers in the ASEAN countries has important practical significance for improving logistics network efficiency and reducing logistics transportation costs. This paper based on the current status of the ASEAN logistics network and the characteristics of the hub-and-spoke network, taking the minimum total cost as the optimization goal, establishing the central location model, and the design self-adaptive genetic algorithms to solve it. Therefore, the number of central nodes in the ASEAN logistics network has been determined, the radiation range between nodes, and route allocation. The results indicate that the ASEAN network layout model is a hub-and-spoke logistics network. With Singapore as the logistic center hub node. Jakarta logistics development belt will form the main radiating logistics demand cities of Kuching and Ho Chi Minh city. Kuala Lumpur logistics development belt’s main radiating logistics demand cities will be East Kalimantan and Da Nang city. Chon Buri logistics development belt mainly radiates the cities of Phnom Penh and Riau city. Bangkok logistics development belt mainly radiates the cities of Hanoi, Vientiane, and Yangon city.
