SCOPE
The scope of this session is to present and discuss theoretical and empirical methods and approaches towards training in the transport and supply chain domain. Multiple stakeholders are involved in today’s complex supply chain networks, having different goals and information needs. This special session will explore how simulations and simulation games can be used as training means to empower stakeholders and to improve collaboration and performance of the whole network.
The contributions should address current research results, which include, but are not limited to following topics:
• The design of simulations of transport and logistic networks
• The design of simulation (training) games to support stakeholders within the transport and logistics domain
• Approaches to use simulations and simulation games to empower stakeholders in complex transportation networks
• Learning processes within simulations and simulation games in the transport and logistics domain, especially intervention design and de-briefing methods
• Studies of effectiveness of simulations and simulation games within the transport and logistics domain
• Evaluation methods of simulation games in the transport and logistics domain
