A comprehensive analysis of an intelligent platform for supply chain management

This reports makes a comprehensive analysis and requirements study of a software platform for intellingent supply chain management by using wireless sensor networks as main innovative technology. The analysis includes both a business and software study of the supply chain’s stakeholders, their activities and requirements, and to what extend they can benefit from using a common software platform that connects and exchanges data with all involved parties.
