AB  - An integrated paradigm of using multiple software programs in
logistics education is proposed as an effective problem‐solving tool in
addition to computer programming and spreadsheet modelling. Presents the
essentials of logistics systems management and how each software program
can be used individually and jointly to address logistics issues in
detail. In the integrated paradigm, a Lotus 123 spreadsheet program is
used as an integrator which works together with other software to
facilitate student learning and to aid better decision making process.
In‐class surveys show that the proposed approach is both effective and
efficient in terms of getting the right results in less time. The
approach is also realistic because the mixed mainframe and microcomputer
operating environment and multiple software programs are being used by
the business community.
