The Homeomorphism between the Logistics Space and the Information Space: The Criterion for Maximizing the Value of the Social Logistics System
Qiuyang Yao, Yinying Tang, Qiyuan Peng · 2010
The principles to estimate the value of the social logistics system is based on the point of General System Theory, Cybernetics and Information Theory. The criterion of maximizing the value of a social logistics system is put forward which is the homeomorphism between the logistics space and the information space. The logistics space and the information space in the social economic system are defined by introducing the conception of topological space and group. The features and the relationships of the logistics space and information space were described respectively. It can be concluded that the key characteristic of the most optimized social logistics system is homeomorphism between the logistics space and the information space. On this basis, the method to describe the homeomorphism between two topological spaces by the isomorphism of two fundamental groups and the example of the supply system are represented further.
