Increasingly, new forms of communication and distribution systems broadly framed here as logistics are gaining scholarly traction in the design disciplines. Through work on management systems, data networks, mobility infrastructure and new forms of delivery, designers are not only exploring how logistics formats urban territory, but also projecting how logistical intelligence can be deployed
toward the future design of cities. This panel discussion presents research on the space of logistics by scholars from different disciplines architecture, urbanism, business and environmental design and will be followed by a book signing with Clare Lyster, author of Learning from Logistics: How Networks Change Cities

(Birkh user, 2016). A limited number of books will be available for sale.
