The 9/11 attacks and other subsequent events have fostered further dimensions to port, maritime and supply chain security with a raft of compulsory and voluntary measures being put in place at both domestic and global levels. This book addresses operational and management challenges that port, international logistics and supply chain operators face in view of the new security regulations and the requirements for increased visibility throughout the supply chain. This peer-reviewed selection of contributions from academia and industry covers the interdependent aspects of risk, reliability and supply chain security, and their impacts on the port and logistics industries.
