Model of distributed hierarchical framework for carrier collaboration
Abdelghani Saoud, Adil Bellabdaoui · 2017
The supply chain is considered as a network composed of heterogeneous structures geographically distributed, that processes a large volume of data which change instantly; it makes the task of logistics deciders very complex, hence the need for distributed intelligent systems, which provide services capable of absorbing the complexity of such networks, and meet the expectations of logistics managers. In this paper, we will present the most recently used systems as intelligent transport systems or even collaborative systems between transport providers, such as multi-agent systems, the physical internet and the Internet of things. Our contribution in this paper concerns the proposal of a distributed hierarchical framework model, composed of four layers, and which will aim at the creation of a collaborative environment for the transport of goods.
