The development of the global economy affects the environment in which we are living, often in negative ways, including pollutions, exhaust emissions, depletion of natural resources, and other concerns. Therefore, it is so important to use resources in a reasonable, sustainable manner and to be aware of the impact of our activities on the environment, which in the next stage translates into trying to limit negative impacts to the environment. Aspects of sustainable supply chain (SSC) have become more and more popular in the last years. Entrepreneurs pay more attention to the aspect of sustainable development in their activities, especially to exhaust emissions. The rational use of resources is also a very important topic. Not only economic aspects but also environmental and social topics are taken into account in company politics, which is characteristic of sustainable development. The main purpose of this article is to show the benefits of SSC. For this purpose, the simulation models showing the supply chain and the sustainable supply chain will be built. The benefits of SSC in economic and environmental aspects will be presented using a computer simulation tool. Using a simulation tool fits in with sustainability; thanks to modeling supply chains in their virtuality and analysis, many resources can be saved in reality (for example, thanks to the consolidation of freight).

Agents technology is popular in many different scientific area. One of them is logistics and supply chain. Agent is characterized by many features, as: mobility and intelligence, autonomy, the ability to monitor the environment at all times. Authors in this article focus on aspect of agents in logistics and supply chain. In this area 3 types of agents can be distinguished: searching agents, monitoring agents and managing agents. Describing the agents topic author decided to present basic information about Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) and Agent Based Simulation (ABS), which are used in logistics also. In this article are presented examples of using each mentioned method of simulation in logistics area.

A complex system, as is the supply chain, should be characterized by durability, denoting the ability to resist rapid change and the ability to survive. It was hypothesized: if a complex system survives one month, with a quantity of 2 Business Relations it is to be presumed that the system was built relatively strong and durable. The paper presents results of the simulation of the Supply Chains with the mechanism of coordination of actions as well as the results of the survival analysis of the simulated objects, with appropriate comments.
