ABSTRACT:With the accelerating development of logistics and the improvement of logistics strategy status, logistics industry has continued to grow steadily, and logistics organizational form and management activities are increasingly complex and diverse. In the face of several new features of logistics development, how to explain this change, find the impetus and implementation object of transformation of logistics, reveal the law of development of logistics have become the important topics in logistics research.The dissertation integrates complex adaptive system, self-organizing and emergency theory of systems theory, enterprise theory, transaction cost theory and division theory of economics, and some relative principles of modular theory, is driven by logistics cooperation, and uses quantitative and qualitative analysis methods to propose the concept of logistics format, build a general framework of analyzing the evolution of logistics format, and studies logistics format and its evolution's motive power, mechanism and path problems. This paper has the innovation of theory and method. The results have theoretical and practical significance for explaining the logistics organization form, the interface of logistics organization and logistics cooperation, making the strategy of logistics standardization information and promoting the logistics business process reengineering. The main work and innovations of the dissertation are:(1) The dissertation brings up a new definition form of logistics, the logistics as various activities to overcome the various stages of production and separation of space and time between production and consumption, involving a variety of goods and related information, capital planning, implementation and control of management. The logistics industry can be viewed as a production system that can create time and space utility in the economic system. By regarding the evolution of logistics format as the change of the complex adaptive system based on process, this paper gives the microscopic analysis for logistic activity.(2) The dissertation builds a general mathematical model of teamwork cooperation and extended to cooperation among teams and among organizations, explains the cooperation effect of teamwork and gives the theoretical significance of management class emersion. (3) The dissertation proposes a conceptual model of organizational skills space which is used to measure complexity. By analyzing the dependence of the task unit, and studying the complexity in terms of the distribution problem of potential conflicts in the course of accomplishing the task which have the different areas in the organizational skill spaces. Thus the dynamic complexity and change of enterprise capabilities are fitted into a unified analytical framework. According to combine with the team model, it can analyze how the team task complexity affect the organization, and the specific ways that the organization division solve complex problems(4) This paper studies the influence of the logistics task dependency relationship complexity to the organizational structure of the logistics enterprises and ways of cooperation between enterprises, decomposing an objective of balance between the speed economies of throughput and the stock of the capacity of the logistics enterprises. One is to analysis to deal with the complex tasks by way of capsule the tacit knowledge and decreasing the demand for public knowledge, and effectively reducing the complexity of the logistics. According to the need of self-service business and alliances cooperation to conduct the internal organization optimal within the organization need to optimize the functions of the module on a combination of a series of operators, these operators are split, substitution, transfer, exclusion, and expansion. The dissertation analyzes the cost of each operator and its value gaining and establishes the value topographic maps of a logistics enterprise organization adjustment. The other is to work out the complicated problems through the cooperation between the enterprise level, focuses on the impact of collaboration cost ratio and self-performance coefficient ratio to logistics alliances.
