Center for Excellence in Logistics and Distribution (CELDi) IIP-1266013; Clemson University; William Ferrell IIP-1265999; Virginia Tech; Kimberly Ellis This is a proposal to renew the participation of Clemson University and Virginia Tech in the Center for Excellence in Logistics and Distribution (CELDi) for another five years (Phase II). The lead institution is the University of Arkansas (Phase III), and at present also includes the Oklahoma State University, the University of Missouri, Arizona State and the University of California, Berkeley. The Center for Excellence in Logistics and Distribution (CELDi) is an NSF Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) that works with its member organizations to address complex research problems in logistics and distribution. The mission of CELDi is to enable member organizations to achieve logistics and distribution excellence by developing meaningful, innovative, and implementable solutions that provide a significant return on investment. CELDi delivers on the I/UCRC promise of high-yield results by exploiting leveraging and synergy in multiple funding sources like individual member organizations, a pool of member organization fees, and competitive funding from the NSF to conduct both specific and generalized, basic research. In addition, CELDi provides the foundation and structure for educating the next generation of engineers in logistics and distribution systems. There are two important broader impacts of CELDi. The first is that the Center has developed a model for applied research conducted within member facilities and focused on operational issues that produce academically relevant scholarship and successfully transfer results to assist the members in achieving logistics and distribution excellence. The second is the impact on students. The Center has created a number of mechanisms to develop student researcher skills including one-on-one mentoring sessions, group mentoring sessions, a best-poster contest judged by the Industrial Advisory Board (IAB), and ensuring more informal interactions occur between students and the IAB by pairing for lunch and roundtable discussions. The Center also intends to continue its efforts to increase the pool of talented students from under-represented groups by actively recruiting and engaging such students.

物流和配送卓越中心(CELDI)IIP-1266013；克莱姆森大学；William Ferrell IIP-1265999；弗吉尼亚理工大学；金伯利·埃利斯这是一项提议，将克莱姆森大学和弗吉尼亚理工大学在物流和配送卓越中心(CELDi)的参与延长五年(第二阶段)。牵头机构是阿肯色大学(第三阶段)，目前还包括俄克拉荷马州立大学、密苏里大学、亚利桑那州立大学和加州大学伯克利分校。物流与配送卓越中心(CELDi)是美国国家科学基金会产业/大学合作研究中心(I/UCRC)，它与其成员组织合作，解决物流和配送中的复杂研究问题。CELDi的使命是通过开发有意义的、创新的和可实施的解决方案，提供显著的投资回报，使成员组织能够实现卓越的物流和配送。CELDI通过利用多种资金来源的杠杆和协同作用，如个别成员组织、成员组织费用池和来自NSF的竞争性资金，实现了I/UCRC的高收益成果承诺，以开展具体和一般性的基础研究。此外，CELDi还为培养下一代物流和配送系统工程师提供了基础和结构。CELDI有两个重要的更广泛的影响。首先，该中心开发了在成员机构内进行的应用研究模式，并专注于产生学术相关学术成果并成功转移成果的业务问题，以帮助成员实现物流和配送的卓越。二是对学生的影响。该中心创建了一系列机制来培养学生研究人员的技能，包括一对一辅导会议、小组辅导会议、由工业咨询委员会(IAB)评选的最佳海报比赛，以及通过配对午餐和圆桌讨论确保学生与IAB之间发生更多非正式互动。该中心还打算继续努力，通过积极招收和吸纳来自代表性不足群体的有才华的学生。
