Wenji Fan, Jingyan Gu, Hui Wang, Zhang Cheng · 2012
International logistics information platform distributes information across countries with complicated businesses and various data sources. It is very difficult to combine many businesses into one. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the improvement in operating efficiency, safety and security of the movement of goods to partners with international logistics through the construction of an information platform. Web technologies that improve data and message transmissions facilitating business transactions from one end of the logistics to the other end play a prominent role. Based on service oriented architecture (SOA) and Web service, the paper presents a system architecture and implementations program of a distributed data exchange platform in a heterogeneous environment. The paper also analyzes and designs the business, and function architecture of the system. The function modules of the international logistics information platform are constructed to improve the level and efficiency of international logistics services significantly.
