摘要:Air freight network is one of the important means to improve the competitiveness of express enterprises. This paper establishes the model from two aspects, hub location decisions and hub number decisions, with the goal to achieve the lowest air freight network cost, based on the �hub-spoke� theory. Then, computes the cost of different number of hubs, and uses super-efficiency DEA model to decide the number of hubs. Finally, an example is illustrated and the results show that the model is reasonable and feasible. The �hub-spoke� network can help to improve efficiency of resource utilization and competitiveness of express enterprises.
