Title
A scalable real-time tracking and monitoring architecture for logistics and transport in RoRo terminals
Abstract
Supply chain management and complex logistics compel constant monitoring and handling of even more growing shipment chains. Therefore, it prompts the necessity to track and trace goods, for ensuring the control and management of the different logistics operations. In port terminals, tracking and tracing cargo is primitive for smooth and flexible services. Technologies such as RFID, GPS, RTLS, etc. are widely used for monitoring cargo flow in the logistics chain. In light of this, this paper proposes a novel architecture based on auto-ID technologies like QRcode, Barcode, Magnetic card ID to support real-time tracking of vehicles in a RoRo terminal and provide their stay time as well as processing time in each service. The modeled system aims to solve dynamic logistics process management problems, monitor rolling cargo, identify similar behavior as well as increase traffic flow and reduce check-in time.
