Description
Summary:In recent years, the Internet of Things is fully integrated into the current field of supply chain. Affected by the IoT, supply chain has also undergone corresponding transformation and change. Therefore, from the current situation, it is necessary to clarify the influence and specific role of the supply chain affected by the Internet of things and explore feasible improvement measures. From the perspective of the Internet of Things related technologies (such as cloud computing, radio frequency identification, etc.) and supply chain management, this study explores the impact of IoT technology or other related information technologies on the iteration and update of supply chain (mainly transportation). Based on the theoretical model and case study, the case analysis can reflect the changes that the Internet of Things technology has brought to the supply chain of enterprises from the reality and the prospect of the future supply chain development from the perspective of the Internet of Things.
