“…Chandes and Paché (2010) investigated the implementation of humanitarian operations in Peru. In addition, Scarpin and Silva (2014) explored and identifi ed the critical factors in Brazil's logistics management. In general, previous studies into disaster management and humanitarian logistics are limited.…”

Disaster management includes distributing logistical assistance to disaster victims. The implementation of this distribution must occur at the right time, at an appropriate location, on target and be appropriate to the needs of the victims. This research aims to design an information system to improve the performance of disaster relief operations by managing the information while monitoring and evaluating humanitarian relief operations.Consequently, understanding the primary determinants of user acceptance behavior has become a vital aspect in the successful implementation of the information system. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model is a tool to investigate and give a better understanding of the factors that affect the potential users’ acceptance and use of an information system. This research used 131 different informants from different groups of potential users to measure performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions. The results have shown strong relationships between four aspects of the measurements for the acceptance of all parties involved in humanitarian relief operations.

“…Schumann-Bolsche et al, in a special view, combined single-board computers -such as the Raspberry P i -and sensor networking to study the chances and challenges of humanitarian logistics in Sub-Saharan Africa [8]. Scarpin et al identified the critical factors that help logistics processes in cases of environmental disasters based on a case study that corroborates the Balcik theoretic model, and the results manifested that all links (among suppliers, donors, beneficiaries and distribution center) in the chain manifested post-disaster [9]. Ozdamar et al put forward a survey that focused on the response and recovery planning phases of the disaster lifecycle and surveyed the applications of information systems in humanitarian logistics [10].…”

The establishment of post-disaster humanitarian logistics (PD-HL) network is essential for humanitarian relief in emergency events, and the research of trust in PD-HL plays a crucial role in building and implementing humanitarian logistics network. This paper analyzes the trust structure of relief patterns in PD-HL network based on three topology models: ACE (Agency Centric Efforts), PIE (Partially Integrated Efforts) and CAN (Collaborative Aid Networks). Three kinds of influence matrices of PD-HL networks are constructed and simulated through NK model to analyze the trust structure in three indicators including global optimum, the average of local optimum and the number of local optimum. Finally, several recommendations are given for the operations of PD-HL.
