Intelligent Goods in Transport Systems (Paperback)

The book is about how the intelligent goods may collect, store, protect and communicate information related to the goods and its transport from A to B and how this capabilities may support the actors involved in the management and control of supply chain networks and transport systems. The book is first all written for students focusing on the Supply Chain Management (SCM) and Transportation domains but it will also be very useful for SCM and transport system stakeholders who want to look into new technology and applications that will contribute to more affective, safe and secure operation of their systems. The book has been written by recognised senior researchers in the ICT, SCM and transport domains. The book successfully discusses the opportunities inherent in intelligent goods systems and present multiple aspects of the process of understanding, developing and applying intelligent goods systems.

It is open for monographs containing advanced research, anthologies with research contributions in a given field, and also conference preprints or proceedings. All publications are subject to peer review. An editorial board decides which publications can be accepted based on content, peer review, and (if appropriate) the academic merits of the author(s). The Faculty of Engineering Science and Technology at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology as an independent non-commercial organisation is responsible for the content. Akademika publishing has responsibility for printing, distribution, and marketing. The engineering field is currently undergoing rapid development in response to global challenges connected to the environment, resources, and welfare. For this response to continue, further fundamental research is needed. The Engineering Series aims to provide an independent, high quality publication channel for this purpose.
