[Iefac.list] LOGMS: The 5th International Conference on Logistics and Maritime Systems

[Xiangtong Qi]

The 5th International Conference on Logistics and Maritime Systems will be
held in Hong Kong on 27-29 August 2015. The objective of this conference
is to provide a forum for exchanging ideas on the latest developments in
the field of logistics and maritime systems among participants from
universities and related industries, and to seek opportunities for
collaboration among the participants. Logistics activities worldwide have
intensified in the wake of globalization and increased international
trade. As a result, global supply chain networks are becoming more complex
as they typically involve maritime transport, inland waterways and onshore
road and rail transportation systems.

The first conference of this series took place in Busan, Korea in 2010
integrating various predecessor conferences like the International
Conference on Intelligent Logistics Systems (IILS), held in Busan, Korea
(2005), Brisbane, Australia (2006), Kitakyushu, Japan (2007), Shanghai,
China (2008), and Gold Coast, Australia (2009), and the Maritime Logistics
(MLOG) conference held in Singapore (2009). Later LOGMS conferences were
held in Bremen (2012) ,Singapore (2013) and Rotterdam (2014).
