Titel
Method for the planning of IoT use cases in Smart Logistics Zones
Abstract
The paper is describing approaches for a method aiming at early planning for the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in logistics processes. Based on the technical properties of single technologies and process requirements a classification of IoT technologies provides the basis for a use case specific evaluation of their technical feasibility. This developed classification is further combined with cost-benefit evaluation approaches. The current status of these developments is observed in the context of a logistics use case. The paper concludes with an outlook on the further development and discusses the contribution of IoT solutions to the creation of Smart Logistics Zones.
