This contributed volume presents state-of-the-art advances in logistics theory in various fields as well as case studies. The book reports on a number of recently conducted studies in the Dinalog and the EffizienzCluster LogistikRuhr, thus bridging the gap between different perspectives of theoretical and applied research. A selection of theoretical topics, practical examples, case studies and project reports is presented in this volume. The editors carefully selected contributions from a wide variety of projects, which were carried out in both the Dinalog cluster and the Effizienzcluster LogistikRuhr. The contributions are grouped in five main sections, each representing key domains in the evolution of logistics and supply chain management: sustainability, urban logistics, value chain management, IT-based innovation, knowledge management. This book is intended for both researchers and practitioners in the field of logistics and supply chain management, to serve as an important source of information for further research as well as to stimulate further innovation.

This edited monograph brings together research papers covering the state of the art in cloud computing for logistics. The book includes general business object models for intralogistics as well as user-friendly methods for logistics business process design. It also presents a general template for logistics applications from the cloud. The target audience primarily comprises researchers and experts in the field, but the book will also be beneficial for graduate students.

Informationstechnologien vom Scannen eines Barcodes bis zur Anwendung Künstlicher Intelligenz sind aus der modernen Logistik nicht mehr wegzudenken. Dieses Buch beschreibt in sechs Kapiteln die chronologische Entwicklung von den Anfängen der Logistik-IT auf dem Feld der Identifikation logistischer Objekte über den industriellen Status Quo der Lagerverwaltung und -steuerung hin zu zukunftsweisenden Konzepten der Industrie 4.0 und der Vision einer logistischen Plattformökonomie. Im Mittelpunkt der Betrachtung stehen intralogistische Anwendungen und das Zusammenspiel von Menschen und Technik in der Logistikwelt von morgen.

Experten aus Wissenschaft und Technik fordern ein Umdenken in der Intralogistik: weg von durchgeplanten, vorherbestimmten Systemen, hin zu einem Netzwerk gleichberechtigter Einheiten, die keiner ubergeordneten Koordination bedurfen. In dem Band werden die notwendigen Komponenten, die Softwarearchitektur und die Potenziale dieser neuen Technologie beschrieben. Anwendungsbeispiele liefern Entwicklern und Planern eine Grundlage fur die Gestaltung moderner Materialflusssysteme in der Industrie."

Grundlagenwerk zur Intralogistik: Materialflusssysteme als Symbiose betrieblicher Organisation und physischer, foerdertechnischer Umsetzung stehen hier im Mittelpunkt. Zahlreiche Tabellen, Grafiken und technische Daten sowie eine Fulle von Systembeispielen und Auswahlmoeglichkeiten liefern den vollstandigen UEberblick uber alle Komponenten. Beim Abwagen der grossen Auswahl an Gestaltungsmoeglichkeiten, die aus den zahlreich vorhandenen Technologien hervorgeht, steht diese 3., voellig neu bearbeitete Auflage Studierenden, Praktikern, Planern und Entscheidern zur Seite. Eine Einfuhrung in die Planung und analytische Berechnung von Materialflusssystemen vervollstandigt dieses Buch und unterstutzt bei der Erfullung zentraler logistischer Funktionen.

This open access book provides a comprehensive view on data ecosystems and platform economics from methodical and technological foundations up to reports from practical implementations and applications in various industries. To this end, the book is structured in four parts: Part I "Foundations and Contexts" provides a general overview about building, running, and governing data spaces and an introduction to the IDS and GAIA-X projects. Part II "Data Space Technologies" subsequently details various implementation aspects of IDS and GAIA-X, including eg data usage control, the usage of blockchain technologies, or semantic data integration and interoperability. Next, Part III describes various "Use Cases and Data Ecosystems" from various application areas such as agriculture, healthcare, industry, energy, and mobility. Part IV eventually offers an overview of several "Solutions and Applications", eg including products and experiences from companies like Google, SAP, Huawei, T-Systems, Innopay and many more. Overall, the book provides professionals in industry with an encompassing overview of the technological and economic aspects of data spaces, based on the International Data Spaces and Gaia-X initiatives. It presents implementations and business cases and gives an outlook to future developments. In doing so, it aims at proliferating the vision of a social data market economy based on data spaces which embrace trust and data sovereignty.

Mit der Neuauflage des erfolgreichen Werkes wird die Geschichte der vierten industriellen Revolution fortgeschrieben und der Dynamik Rechnung getragen, mit der die Vision in den vergangenen zwei bis drei Jahren weiterentwickelt und verwirklicht wurde. Experten aus Wissenschaft und Technik beleuchten verschiedene Facetten der Industrie 4.0 und schaffen gleichermassen einen UEberblick uber den Stand der Technik und die Vision selbst. Dies gelingt nicht zuletzt Dank einer ausgewogenen Mischung aus wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen, Praxisbeispielen und UEbersichtsbeitragen. Die Themen der Beitrage reichen von Basistechnologien uber Integrations- und Migrationsansatze bis hin zu Geschaftsmodellen und Dienstleistungen fur die Industrie 4.0. Zudem werden die Datensicherheit und auch rechtliche Aspekte mit Datenanalyse und maschinellem Lernen behandelt. In der dritten Auflage werden die Themenfelder um Kunstliche Intelligenz, aktuelle Mobilfunkstandards und den daraus resultierenden Potentialen fur eine zukunftige Plattformoekonomie erweitert. Die dritte uberarbeitete und erweiterte Auflage erscheint wiederum in 3 Banden. Der vorliegende dritte Band umfasst neue und bearbeitete Beitrage zur Logistik. Online ist dieses Nachschlagewerk auch uber Springer Reference verfugbar.
