PDAC-SL: A PUF-enabled drone access control technique for smart logistics

The conventional logistics’ paradigm is being replaced with smarter ways of supply chain management to readily serve the customers with quick modes of delivery in affordable operational costs. The weak infrastructure in rural terrain and congested roads in urban cities act as a big impediment in the successful accomplishment of last mile delivery down the lane across the complete chain of logistics. The traditional logistics has been evolved and improved in many respects, the last mile delivery is still plagued by security and privacy risks in logistics. The use of drones for package deliveries may offer promising gains in terms of efficiency. Nonetheless, drones undergo security and privacy risks besides physical threats for being deployed in public places communicating on open channels. Thus, more efforts are needed to secure the communication of inducted drones in delivery assignments. We propose a novel PUF-enabled drone access control mechanism PDAC-SL for smart logistics. By the careful employment of symmetric crypto-primitives, the contributed protocol not only supports low end devices but stands resistant to physical drone and other known threats besides preserving anonymity and untraceability features. The RoR model-based formal security analysis and performance analysis demonstrate distinct security properties and applicability of the PDAC-SL.

Managing logistics risks in pharmaceutical supply chain: a 4PL perspective

Supply chain risks and vulnerabilities have been growing recently due to the global, interconnected, and complex networks. The Pharmaceutical Supply Chain (PSC), as a critical national asset, requires increased attention to mitigate the severe consequences of global events. With various risks impacting both the firm’s performance and the lives of patients, effective risk management is paramount for the PSC. This empirical study focuses on the UK-based Fourth-Party Logistics (4PL) provider, which manages pharmaceutical manufacturers’ logistics operations. The 4PL provider’s past experiences with unexpected risky events have influenced its performance. This study aims to explore inherent logistics risks, evaluate them, and recommend mitigation strategies. An integrated approach considering probability, impact and manageability parameters is proposed for risk assessment. In identifying 11 risks from the 4PL perspective, structured interviews are used to gather risk information. The probability of risk occurrence, severity of impact, and manageability are quantified. The delivery delay should be given priority in the follow-up risk management process, while counterfeiting has the least priority. Finally, three resilience strategies named improving flexibility, redundancy, and creating a risk culture are proposed for the 4PL case company. The study offers multiple theoretical and managerial implications based on its findings.

Adaptive dynamic fire danger evaluation of logistics warehouses with fusion of evidential reasoning and smart optimization

Considering the background that the current fire risk assessment methods often rely on subjective assessments based on professional knowledge and experience, they are usually limited to the special fire scene. Given the lack of effective tools for assessing fire risks in logistics warehouses across varying scenes, this paper aims to propose a multi-source data-driven, adaptive dynamic fire danger evaluation method. The method is established based on the fusion strategy of evidential reasoning and artificial fish swarm algorithm. According to the method, rules of danger evaluation levels related to each attribute of fire factors can be generated automatically without necessary of professional knowledges and experiences. The lightweight multi-source data at this moment can be fused to evaluate current fire danger level directly, which does not require training on extensive datasets in advance. Finally, multi-source data including temperature and CO concentration in two fire scenes of one logistics warehouse at different times are utilized to support the ability of the method. The results show that the estimated fire source location according to the center of domain with the evaluated highest danger level matches well with the real fire source location. In conclusion, the main contribution of the research is that the reasonable dynamic danger level of the logistics warehouse fire with time variation can be evaluated automatically. The method has an excellent generality, which is not limited to the specific fire scene. The danger zone of the logistics warehouse under sudden fires can be determined adaptively, which can support the fire prevention and fire safety countermeasures of logistics warehouses.

АНАЛИЗ ЛОГИСТИЧЕСКИХ РИСКОВ В УСЛОВИЯХ ПЕРЕОРИЕНТАЦИИ ГРУЗОПОТОКОВ В ВОСТОЧНОМ НАПРАВЛЕНИИ

The Russian market for logistics services is undergoing significant changes. In the context of political pressure from a number of foreign countries and the imposition of a large number of sanctions against the Russian Federation, as well as taking into account the differences in the needs of individual regions and the characteristics of foreign trade relations, there is a sharp reorientation of cargo flows in the eastern direction. Such dramatic changes in supply chains occur in parallel with a significant increase in logistics risks, which raises the issue of their timely and comprehensive analysis. Taking into account the peculiarities of the geographical location of the Russian Federation, railway transport, along with road transport, plays a vital role in organizing the transportation process of various types of goods. Therefore, the analysis of open data from official sources on the transportation of container cargo through the network of JSC Russian Railways was chosen as the methodological basis of the paper. Based on data from the container shipping market, an analysis of existing logistics risks, as well as the factors that provoke their emergence, is provided. The key risks in logistics include transport, warehouse, procurement and distribution logistics risks, and uncertainty, chance and resistance are identified as the main factors of their occurrence. The paper outlines the importance of minimizing logistics risks when organizing the transportation process in the eastern direction of Russia and provides a number of ways to reduce the likelihood of risk occurrence. One of these methods is risk dissipation. The implementation of this method is shown by the example of the implementation of an organizational group of activities at the Eastern training ground, which allows reducing the load on the railway and port infrastructure. As a result, the likelihood of risk occurring in logistics processes is reduced.

Construction of a Predictive Model for Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 in Middle-Aged and Elderly Populations Based on the Medical Checkup Data of National Basic Public Health Service

To establish a universally applicable logistic risk prediction model for diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) in the middle-aged and elderly populations based on the results of a Meta-analysis, and to validate and confirm the efficacy of the model using the follow-up data of medical check-ups of National Basic Public Health Service. Cohort studies evaluating T2DM risks were identified in Chinese and English databases. The logistic model utilized Meta-combined effect values such as the odds ratio (OR) to derive β, the partial regression coefficient, of the logistic model. The Meta-combined incidence rate of T2DM was used to obtain the parameter α of the logistic model. Validation of the predictive performance of the model was conducted with the follow-up data of medical checkups of National Basic Public Health Service. The follow-up data came from a community health center in Chengdu and were collected between 2017 and 2022 from 7602 individuals who did not have T2DM at their baseline medical checkups done at the community health center. This community health center was located in an urban-rural fringe area with a large population of middle-aged and elderly people. A total of 40 cohort studies were included and 10 items covered in the medical checkups of National Basic Public Health Service were identified in the Meta-analysis as statistically significant risk factors for T2DM, including age, central obesity, smoking, physical inactivity, impaired fasting glucose, a reduced level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), hypertension, body mass index (BMI), triglyceride glucose (TYG) index, and a family history of diabetes, with the OR values and 95% confidence interval (CI) being 1.04 (1.03, 1.05), 1.55 (1.29, 1.88), 1.36 (1.11, 1.66), 1.26 (1.07, 1.49), 3.93 (2.94, 5.24), 1.14 (1.06, 1.23), 1.47 (1.34, 1.61), 1.11 (1.05, 1.18), 2.15 (1.75, 2.62), and 1.66 (1.55, 1.78), respectively, and the combined β values being 0.039, 0.438, 0.307, 0.231, 1.369, 0.131, 0.385, 0.104, 0.765, and 0.507, respectively. A total of 37 studies reported the incidence rate, with the combined incidence being 0.08 (0.07, 0.09) and the parameter α being -2.442 for the logistic model. The logistic risk prediction model constructed based on Meta-analysis was externally validated with the data of 7602 individuals who had medical checkups and were followed up for at least once. External validation results showed that the predictive model had an area under curve (AUC) of 0.794 (0.771, 0.816), accuracy of 74.5%, sensitivity of 71.0%, and specificity of 74.7% in the 7602 individuals. The T2DM risk prediction model based on Meta-analysis has good predictive performance and can be used as a practical tool for T2DM risk prediction in middle-aged and elderly populations.

Combined simultaneous transsphenoidal and transcranial regimen improves surgical outcomes in complex giant pituitary adenomas: A longitudinal retrospective cohort study.

Surgical treatment of complex giant pituitary adenomas (GPAs) presents significant challenges. The efficacy and safety of combining transsphenoidal and transcranial approaches for these tumors remain controversial. In this largest cohort of patients with complex GPAs, we compared the surgical outcomes between those undergoing a combined regimen and a non-combined regimen. We also examined the differences in risks of complications, costs, and logistics between the two groups, which might offer valuable information for the appropriate management of these patients. This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study conducted at 13 neurosurgical centers. Consecutive patients who received a combined or non-combined regimen for complex GPAs were enrolled. The primary outcome was gross total resection, while secondary outcomes included complications, surgical duration, and relapse. A propensity score-based weighting method was used to account for differences between the groups. Out of 647 patients (298 [46.1%] women, mean age: 48.5 ± 14.0 years) with complex GPAs, 91 were in the combined group and 556 were in the non-combined group. Compared with the non-combined regimen, the combined regimen was associated with a higher probability of gross total resection (50.5% vs. 40.6%, odds ratio [OR]: 2.18, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.30-3.63, P = 0.003). The proportion of patients with life-threatening complications was lower in the combined group than in the non-combined group (4.4% vs. 11.2%, OR: 0.25, 95% CI: 0.08-0.78, P = 0.017). No marked differences were found between the groups in terms of other surgical or endocrine-related complications. However, the combined regimen exhibited a longer average surgery duration of 1.3 h (P < 0.001) and higher surgical costs of 22,000 CNY (approximate 3,000 USD, P = 0.022) compared with the non-combined approach. The combined regimen offered increased rates of total resection and decreased incidence of life-threatening complications, which might be recommended as the first-line choice for these patients.

Resilience, efficiency fluctuations, and regional heterogeneity in disaster: An empirical study on logistics

While resilience analysis can provide important insights into risk management strategies, research gaps exist in terms of logistics efficiency, regional economic environment, and spatial clustering patterns. Therefore, our study capitalizes on the dramatic variations in logistics activities among regions during COVID-19 to examine regional logistics resilience in the disaster and explore potential spatial clustering patterns. We measure regional logistics resilience through changes in performance outcomes, specifically efficiency fluctuation. To analyze spatial clustering patterns, (regional heterogeneity) presented by logistics efficiency, we propose a new multi-stage approach that integrates the data envelopment analysis with the K-medoids algorithm and analyzes data from the Chinese logistic industry. The results reveal that efficiency fluctuations exhibit distinct spatial distribution characteristics, with more pronounced negative fluctuations in areas of important logistics activities nodes and islands, and more widespread negative trends in coastal areas. Moreover, regions with high freight volumes and logistics specialization demonstrate a sustained high level and quality of logistics efficiency. Furthermore, consumption capacity and economic development appear to positively influence fluctuations in logistics efficiency. The findings hold implications for enhancing regional logistics resilience in the disaster and contribute valuable insights to regional logistics risk management.

Development of the Theory and Practice of Calculating the Cost of Logistics Services As an Element of Customs and Logistics Risk Management in International Supply Chains for Goods Containing Intellectual Property

In conditions of geopolitical instability, the introduction of a huge number of sanctions against our country, conducting foreign economic activity is becoming more and more difficult and expensive. One of the important stages in the international supply chain is customs logistics in terms of customs control, the passage of which is mostly assigned to the logistics operator (customs representative). Every second product today contains intellectual property, and customs authorities have a number of mechanisms to control this complex category of goods. The application by customs authorities of the customs control mechanisms provided for by the customs legislation of the EAEU affects the timing of the release of goods (suspension of the release of goods for 20 working days), as well as the final cost (accounting for license fees in the structure of the customs value of goods). The paper analyzes emerging customs and logistics risks in international supply chains of goods containing intellectual property. The key figure in the declaration of goods is, as a rule, the logistics operator, acting on behalf of and on behalf of the foreign trade participant. However, today the risks of a logistics operator are not taken into account when determining the cost of services for performing operations related to the customs declaration of goods containing intellectual property. The article structures emerging customs and logistics factors in international supply chains of goods containing intellectual property. For this purpose, based on the customs and logistics risks that arise for the logistics operator during the customs declaration of goods containing intellectual property, the consequences of the occurrence of the considered risks for him are determined. A methodology for calculating flexible tariffs for a logistics operator has been developed, including criteria for differentiating tariffs depending on external and internal factors, and correction factors have been proposed.
