Literature Corpus for a Systematic Review on Last-Mile Logistics Simulation

532 publications were retrieved from Scopus and Web of Science in February 2026 for a systematic literature review. After screening, a final corpus of 81 publications was selected for data extraction. Johannes Staritz created this digital appendix to ensure transparency and reproducibility of the study's findings on sustainability in logistics.

Use Cases

• Analyzing publication trends in last-mile logistics simulation based on the corpus of 81 selected papers.
• Reproducing the screening and selection methodology for a systematic literature review based on the documented process.
• Extracting data on the linkage between simulation paradigms and sustainability operationalization based on the study's focus.

Strengths

• Corpus size is explicitly defined with 532 initial and 81 final publications.
• Source databases are named (Scopus and Web of Science), providing origin transparency.
• The study's purpose is clearly stated: ensuring transparency and reproducibility of findings.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The 193.9 KB size suggests the dataset is a PDF document, not the raw extracted data.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for computational analysis.
