Canadian Tire is one of Canada’s largest companies. They operate four large distribution centers service over 470 tire retail ou

tlets. They recently installed a Yard Management System (YMS), which they have integrated with their Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) and Transport Management System (TMS) systems. Their expectation was improved performance in over-the-road transportation equipment utilization, driver productivity, and warehouse dock/door utilization. As a relatively new logistics employee, you have been asked to develop an evaluation system to measure operational productivity improvement. While management does not want a financial impact evaluation, they are interested in developing benchmarks to measure initial and sustainable productivity improvement. You have the job-how would you proceed?

Answer: Provided in the explanation section

Explanation:

A YMS acts an interface between a WMS and TMS.The evaluation system with the key performance indicators are mentioned in the table below.

NOTE: The analysis follows in this order given below

  • Metric
  • Description
  • Comments

Metric 1

<u>Trailer utilization</u>

Description :This captures the status of the trailer whether it is in the yard or is in transit

Comments : Helps in measuring the trailer productivity on a daily ,weekly or monthly basis

Metric 2

<u>Driver utilization</u>

Description : This captures the status of the driver whether the driver is in the yard or is in transit

Comments : Helps in measuring the driver productivity on a periodic basis

Metric 3

<u>Trailer sequence</u>

Description : This captures the order of movement of trailers in the yard on a given day, week or month

Comments : Helps in measuring the order fulfilment efficiency i.e. whether the priority orders have been serviced first or not

Metric 4

<u>Total time in yard</u>

Description : This captures the time spent by the trailer in the yard from the time it enters and leaves the yard

Comments : This helps in measuring the time taken to fulfill a particular request

⇒ Capturing these metrics need inputs from both WMS and TMS, and also the trailers need to have RFID tags attached to them.Then compare these performance metrics with the ones prior to the deployment of YMS to identify the percent gains in the overall operational productivity.

cheers i hope this helped !!

The router can deliver packets directly over interfaces 0 and 1 or it can forward packets to Routers R2, R3, or R4. Describe wha
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

In point A:

It applies the AND operation with the subnet-mask that is  

=128.96.39.00001010 \ \ AND \ \ 255.255.255.10000000 \\\\= 128.96.39.0000000 \\\\= 128.96.39.0 \\\

This corresponds to a 128.96.39.0 subnet. This is why the router sent the packet to 0.

In point B:  

It applies the AND operation with the subnet-mask that is 255.255.255.128

= 128.96.40.00001100\  AND \ 255.255.255.10000000 \\\\ = 128.96.40.0000000\\\\= 128.96.40.0

This suits the 128.96.40.0 subnet. The router then sent R2 to the packet. The packet.

In point C:  

It  applies the AND operation with the subnet-mask that is 255.255.255.128

=128.96.40.10010111 \ AND \ 255.255.255.10000000 \\\\= 128.96.40.1000000\\\\= 128.96.40.128

It  applies the AND operation with the subnet-mask  that is 255.255.255.192

= 128.96.40.10010111 \ AND \ 255.255.255.11000000 \\\\= 128.96.40.1000000 \\\\= 128.96.40.128\\

All of the matches of its sublinks above.  

Its default R4 router was therefore sent to the router by router.

In point D:

It  applies the AND operation with the subnet-mask  that is 255.255.255.192

= 192.4.153.00010001 \ AND \ 255.255.255.11000000\\\\ = 192.4.153.0000000 \\\\= 192.4.153.0 \\\\

It matches the 192.4.153.0 subnet. It router has sent packet to R3 then.

In point E:

It  applies the AND operation with the subnet-mask  that is 255.255.255.128

= 192.4.153.01011010\  AND \ 255.255.255.10000000 \\\\= 192.4.153.0000000 \\\\= 192.4.153.0

There, neither of the subnet inputs correlate with the ip address with the same subnet mask.

It  applies the AND operation with the subnet-mask  that is 255.255.255.192

=192.4.153.01011010\ AND \ 255.255.255.11000000 \\\\ = 192.4.153.0100000 \\\\= 192.4.153.64

It does not correlate to the subnet entries for same subnet mask, and therefore neither of the entries matches their corresponding ip address entries.  

Mask of the subnet.  That packet would therefore be sent to the default R4 router by the router.
