Abstract

Goods movement into the smart city is critical from an economic perspective. Hence, understanding the relationship between logistics of the goods flow and smart city operations is crucial in the policy deployment of future cities. Emerging smart logistics considers the inclusion of disruptive technologies – e.g., smart sensors within the Internet of Things environment. However, no research work studies the impact of smart logistics on smart cities sustainability, considering the firm-level technological viewpoint. Thus, this paper investigates empirically the effect of smart logistics on smart city sustainable operations, based on the foundation of organisational capability theory. For that purpose, a survey-based questionnaire is used to collect data from businesses that deal with logistics in Melbourne city (Australia). Then, the structural equation modelling technique is employed to analyse the relationship of smart logistics with smart city performance. Results show that smart logistics has a positive impact on smart city sustainable performance. Therefore, future urban projects will take into account this emerging logistics approach.

智慧城市-智慧物流融合

从经济角度来看，进入智慧城市的货物运输至关重要。因此，了解物流物流与智慧城市运营之间的关系对于未来城市的政策部署至关重要。新兴的智能物流考虑了包括颠覆性技术，例如物联网环境中的智能传感器。然而，考虑到企业层面的技术观点，没有研究工作研究智能物流对智慧城市可持续性的影响。因此，本文在组织能力理论的基础上，实证研究了智慧物流对智慧城市可持续运营的影响。为此，使用基于调查的问卷来收集来自墨尔本(澳大利亚)处理物流的企业的数据。然后，利用结构方程建模技术分析了智慧物流与智慧城市绩效的关系。结果表明，智慧物流对智慧城市可持续发展绩效具有正向影响。因此，未来的城市项目将考虑到这种新兴的物流方式。
