IoT-enabled Dynamic Optimisation for Sustainable Reverse Logistics

• Currently, typical challenges that logistics industry faces include the exploding logistics (including reverse logistics) tasks, the lack of real-time and accurate logistics information, and demands towards sustainable logistics. Therefore, it is difficult for logistic companies to achieve highly-efficient and sustainable reverse logistics. This paper adopts a bottom-up logistics strategy that aims to achieve the real-time information-driven dynamic optimisation distribution for logistics tasks. Under this strategic framework, an IoT-enabled real-time information sensing model is designed to sense and capture the real-time data of logistics resources, which are shared among companies after the value-added processes. Real-time information-driven dynamic optimisation for logistics tasks is proposed to optimise the configuration of logistics resources, reduce logistics cost, energy consumption and the distribution distance, and alleviate the environmental pollution. The objective of this research is to develop an innovative logistics distribution model for sustainable logistics.
