Industry 4.0 systems for logsitics energy optimization

The global logistics paradigm has been subject to many research studies with various models developed. The key focus is optimization, energy reduction, resource reductions and improved delivery times. Studies have focused on the logistics network optimization, warehouse optimization, automation, global tracking and various other specialized solutions. The need of the hour is all things digital, with a global focus on the Fourth Industrial revolution. The integration and digitalization, inclusive of automation, is a key driver of digital. Cleaner technologies introduction is also a fundamental aspect of Logistics systems. The authors collate all optimization techniques for logistics system via a simulation toolset representing the business logistics activities, rendered via business processes. Business Processes (BP) provide a logical engine for simulation as BP represent business activities at a detailed level, usually at a level three. The research team builds a global logistics model, centered on business processes. The model is designed to facilitate optimization option substitution with the ability to predict business states. The results provides insights into global logistics optimization. The paper concludes with detailed scenario based results.
