Purpose: Recently, the complexity of managing warehouses has been amplified significantly due to factors that include increased requests for more frequent and smaller order fulfilment, reduction of operational cost, and improvement of customer experience. Product stock count is a critical...

While providing unique identity to the objects, analogous to wireless sensor network (WSN) technologies, radio frequency identification (RFID) technology can be used to automate data collection and thus can significantly limit human involvements as well as errors. Therefore, utilisation and...

This research aims to assess a conceptual framework that includes radio frequency identification (RFID) technology usage and integrated with supply chain (SC) global positioning information system (GPIS) as predecessors to supply chain performance (SCP). Data were collected using a web-based...

Background: Recent literature indicates that warehouse management costs account for a significant portion of overall logistics costs in companies. Warehousing requires the classification, controlling and management of inventory as well as processing of related information. Therefore, adopting...

Nowadays, buying and searching for products at shopping malls are turning into a daily activity incities. We can see many numbers of people shopping at malls on holidays and weekends. The rush happens when there are special offers and discounts. People purchase completely various things and...

Seaports are regarded as significant actors in global logistics and supply chains since a large part of the cargoes carried over the globe are being processed there. When the cold chain broken down during transport and storage in the ports, the humidity, nutrition, temperature and time...

Supply Chain Management (SCM) is increasingly complex and dynamic. Radio frequency identification (RFID) and the Internet of Things (IoT) are expected to play a significant role in fulfilling customer requirements in the supply chain. In this work, the integration of RFID with IoT is called...

A significant amount of new capability has been created in this software industry with Blockchain Technology. By applying it, we can solve issues such as double spending, cross-border transactions, and settlements, which are all unresolved problems in the supply chain. Transparency,...

Seaports are regarded as significant actors in global logistics and supply chains since a large part of the cargoes carried over the globe are being processed there. When the cold chain broken down during transport and storage in the ports, the humidity, nutrition, temperature and time...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to show the improvements obtained through the application of IoT in a company of the metal-mechanical sector. Design/methodology/approach: The methodology used has been the collection of data before and after the application of the IoT in the process to...
