Design and Implementation of Intelligent Warehousing Management System Using Internet of Things

Abstract:

In this paper, an intelligent warehousing management system (IWMS) using Internet of Things is designed to facilitate the warehousing management. Firstly, the characteristics of IWMS are analyzed, together with some new advanced technologies and theories, such as RFID, Zigbee and heterogeneous network are introduced. Then, the architecture of IWMS is developed and the related management system is accomplished as well. Finally, through the implementation of a prototype system in practical working environment, the operation results show the IWMS can facilitate storekeeper to manage the warehouse and improve logistics capability efficiently.
