A chapter in Global Logistics and Supply Chain Strategies for the 2020s, 2023, pp 327-337 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Modern logistics and transport supply chains face the challenge to reach logistics sustainability at a global level by addressing economic, environmental, and social dimensions. In this context, technological innovations like blockchain and related optimization techniques are of particular interest. The goal of this chapter is to explore after an introduction to the “Physical Internet” and insights from the top management of logistics service providers, how a blockchain architecture based on ant colony optimization may support the operations of the “Physical Internet.” Technical aspects of blockchains for PI are addressed as well. A decentralized system for PI-container is described that is using blockchain technology and autonomous decision-making.
