In the present paper, we propose the use of enterprise input-output (EIO) models to describe and analyse the logistics flows considering spatial issues and related environmental effects associated with production and transportation processes. In particular, transportation is modelled as a specific production process, both at an aggregate and disaggregate level, then permitting to cope with more managerial or policy-oriented problems. Moreover, the use of EIO models can be useful to represent and analyse logistics services markets, accounting and planning the demand and supply of transportation.

Abstract

In particular, transportation is modelled as a specific production process, both at an aggregate and disaggregate level, then permitting to cope with more managerial or policy-oriented problems. Moreover, the use of EIO models can be useful to represent and analyse logistics services markets, accounting and planning the demand and supply of transportation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
