| Summary: | This paper has been designed in the form of a systematic literature review intended for evaluating the state-of-the-art of discrete-event simulation (DES) usage in the logistics and supply chain management fields under a scientometric perspective. With this primary aim in mind, 127 papers published between 2009 and 2022 are analysed, with the specific purposes of: 1) providing an overview of DES studies in logistics and supply chain management, map the main topics covered within this stream of literature and their evolution in time; 2) providing a robust ranking of the journals and authors in the field; 3) evaluating the rigor in the implementation of DES models in the logistics and supply chain management literature; and finally 4) correlating, through statistical elaborations, all the previous aspects to the success of these papers, measured as the citations received per year, taking inspiration from scientometric disciplines. |
