Agent-Based Container Security Systems: An Interdisciplinary Perspective
نویسندگان
چکیده
Container security systems including electronic seals play an important role in securing container logistics. Nevertheless, a lack of standards prevents devices by different vendors from effective interoperability. Hence, this paper proposes an interdisciplinary perspective incorporating the agent paradigm of computer science. In this approach interaction between different autonomous entities is based on standardised communication protocols. In addition, for container security systems a cryptographic concept must be applied in order to secure communication.

Applying Intelligent Agent Technology to Develop Coordinative Workflow Platform for Inter-organizational Applications
In this paper, we apply agent technology to develop autonomous WfMS with a separately coordinative interface to fulfill the consideration of security for inter-organizational applications. The proposed agent-based coordinative WfMS (ACWS) are implemented on a JADE platform containing three normal containers. The client container works as an agent pool to support client’s operations about submit...

متن کاملA Multi-Agent System for the Automation of a Port Container Terminal
This paper presents a system architecture which is based on the multi-agent system paradigm for solving complex problems. This architecture is applied to solve the port container terminal management problem, and specifically to solve the automatic container allocation. The multi-agent systems paradigm seems to fit this problem due to its inherent complexity. This work is part of a project for t...
