RFID-Based Intelligent Logistics for Distributed Production Networks

  • Conference paper

Abstract

Improvement of logistics system in production networks can produce a significant advantage for the companies involved. The paper investigates application of modern technologies such as RFID and configuration/optimization possibilities via an example of dynamic transportation problem. The general methodology based on ontology-driven knowledge description is described. It is explained how RFID technology can improve the logistics system and shown that in case of dynamic environment it is preferable to use fast algorithms producing feasible decisions instead of time-consuming optimisation.
