Abstract :
The paper discusses the construction of decision support system for logistics distribution network planning (LDNPDSS), and studies its logical structure and general framework of the LDNPDSS. Further more, the paper uses multi-agent systems to design the LDNPDSS, especially discusses the reasoning center of multi-agent systems, and studies the communications of the LDNPDSS based on multi-agent systems. Based on the above researches, a foundation for implementation of logistics distribution activities has been established.
