Abstract :
In order to resolve the problem of difficult designing the layout in dynamic logistics network, a logistics´ designing method based on Matthew effects was put forward out in the paper. Firstly, the economic effect in the growth process of logistics network was analyzed, then, the attachment formula came with the growth of the network; based on it, the growth process of adding nodes and edges was discussed, and the clustering coefficient was arrived to balance the degree of the nodes. Case study showed that the logistics´ designing method is reasonable.
