Download or read book The Value of RFID written by Alp Ustundag and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-12 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RFID technology presents a great potential for creating competitive advantage. By automating and simplifying data collection, it lets users more accurately track assets and monitor key indicators, which in turn gives greater visibility to the operations. However, the benefits received from this technology will be determined by how well it is integrated with the business processes and overall information flow. Because of the fact that the decision to deploy RFID technology in an enterprise is a business decision instead of a technology decision, cost-benefit analysis is a key component of this decision. If an RFID deployment cannot be justified in terms of its economic value to the company, it is not likely to help the company; and consequently, it is not likely to remain a viable deployment over the long term. The Value of RFID describes the business value of RFID and explains the costs and benefits of this technology comprehensively. Different investment evaluation models are proposed to use in various application areas. Techniques to guide the selection of appropriate implementation levels and to handle uncertainty and risk in RFID are explained. Written for researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, and lecturers working in the field of RFID and supply chain management, readers will learn evaluation practices for RFID investment for different application areas. The book also guides managers in making to accurate decisions on RFID investment to maximize the return.

The quote holds true for all spheres & aspects of human life & business environment. The onset of the 21st Century brought itself the turbulence in the business environment that had far reaching effects. The subprime crises that originated in the USA took its toll on many financial giants & the ripples created are yet to calm down. Hence in this scenario no student of management can afford to remain oblivious of the factors that determine& affect the business environment. The students hence should be well versed with the background of the world economy now & then. Another important highlight of this era has been the process of liberalisation, privatisation & globalisation which have brought about wide challenges & opportunities in most of the countries. The emergence of China & India has been phenomenon & is expected to take over the United States as the largest economy of the world. The organisations have to retune their strategies & ways of doing business in order to take the advantage of these developments.It is because of these reasons that the Universities & Institutes have incorporated the subject of Business environment to be taught to the management students. An attempt is made here by the authors to assist the students by way of providing Study Material as per the curriculum with non-commercial considerations. However, it is implicit that these are exam-oriented Study Material and students are advised to attend regular lectures in the Institute and utilize reference books available in the library for In-depth knowledge.We owe to many websites and their free contents; we would like to specially acknowledge contents of website www.wikipedia.com and various authors whose writings formed the basis for this book. We acknowledge our thanks to them. At the end we would like to say that there is always a room for improvement in whatever we do.

Download or read book Freight Forwarder s Intermediary Role in Multimodal Transport Chains written by Hans-Joachim Schramm and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the business of international freight forwarding is examined from both a theoretical and empirical point of view with a special emphasis on multimodal transport chains, including sea or air transport operations. In such contexts, the freight forwarder is always considered "The Architect of Transport", but this intermediary role seems to be largely neglected in research to date. Therefore, relevant concepts from economic theory and economic sociology are employed to produce both an intermediary and a network perspective of freight forwarding in order to provide a better understanding of this kind of transportation business. Furthermore, its intermediary role in such inherent network structures is explored by mapping relationship patterns in a stylized model framework applied to a questionnaire-based sample collected among freight forwarders engaged in such multimodal transport chains in Germany (especially from Hamburg, Bremen and Bremerhaven) as well as in Austria in 2003.

Download or read book Energy Related Material Flow Simulation in Production and Logistics written by Sigrid Wenzel and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides for the first time an overview on the current approaches and applications of energy aspects in production and logistics by the use of simulation techniques. During the last decade, the importance of energy in the material flow processes has become more and more important. The pressure to reduce the environmental footprint of production and logistics systems will even intensify in future. Therefore, enterprises have started to integrate the use of energy into their planning processes much more than before, even designing feedback loops, e.g., from energy control to production control. This receives additional attention with the increasing use of renewable, but less reliable, energy sources. Care must be taken to establish processes that aim to use energy when it is available. As an example, many industrial processes like melting or coating have significant energy demands, but could vary the point of time of its consumption within specific limits, leading to a very high complexity. ​ It discusses the construction and application of energy-specific performance indicators and analyzes the input information that needs to be acquired before implementing suitable models. On this basis, concrete technical solutions are introduced.
