چکیده
According to the mobile supply chain management features and considering the limitations and obstacles in the mobile environment. This paper proposes a multi-agent integration middleware for mobile supply chain management, aiming to solve information integration and data synchronization problem without worrying about network or terminal heterogeneity in mobile environment, which can achieve mobile supply chain dynamic integration and then improve the efficiency of supply chain management. Compared with traditional distributed approach, the management method has lots of advantages, such as saving network bandwidth; its flexibility and scalability are also very favorable.
