“…Supply chain particularly in food (fresh or processed) requires extra measures to manage the quality parameter of food items and maintain the food degradation process. Long supply chains of fresh or unpreserved food stuff can be affected by extraordinary hazardous elements [20][21][22][23][24]. The operational efficiency in fleet management, cargo integrity monitoring, and storage condition control, optimization of warehouse workload, inventory tracking and analytics can be achieved with IoT technology In the following, we have briefly described the layers of sensing as a service model in smart supply chain domain.…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming pervasive and immersive due to the recent advancements in communication and sensing technologies. The proliferation of smart devices and their sensing capabilities has opened new opportunities and business models. The billions of connected sensing devices are generating enormous amount of data. The sensing as a service concept has the potential to provide a wide variety of services to citizens, companies and public administrations. This paper presents a sensing as service vision for IoT in different domains such as agriculture, waste management, supply chain, traffic management and others. Moreover, different applications of sensing as service model is analyzed and discussed in detail. In this paper, we specifically propose a service oriented sensing as service architecture to realize the vision of sensing as a service. The proposed service oriented architecture has the potential to address the challenges of heterogeneity, integration and interoperability of a sensing as service concept and can open new business opportunities.

“…Main barriers are: (i) hardware technology current weaknesses (Catarinucci et al, 2010) (e.g. data reliability, read rate in critical conditions, lack of unified standard for interoperability), (ii) software weakness (Barchetti et al, 2010) (e.g. scalability, single-point of failure, integration with information systems), (iii) relatively high costs of tags, software customization and systems integration, (iv) security issues (Staake et al, 2005;Mirowski et al, 2009), (v) lack of scientific literature on the evaluation of potential effects of RFID exposure on molecular structure and potency of drugs (Acierno et al, 2010).…”

“…Tracking and tracing data accessing and sharing are implemented through standardized query interfaces provided by each database. Though the recently published specification describes how security functions, such as authentication, access control, validation, and privacy protection of individuals and corporations, will be distributed across many of the roles/interfaces operating within the EPCglobal network, security is still a major issue, not fully addressed in EPCglobal's standards to handle the inherent complexities arising from B2B relationship (including subcontracting) and B2G partnership in the international supply chain tracking and tracing [1,2,5,10,27,35].…”

Growing complexity and uncertainty are still the key challenges enterprises are facing in managing and re-engineering their existing supply chains. To tackle these challenges, they are continuing innovating management practices and piloting emerging technologies for achieving supply chain visibility, agility, adaptability and security. Nowadays, subcontracting has already become a common practice in modern logistics industry through partnership establishment between the involved stakeholders for delivering consignments from a consignor to a consignee. Companies involved in international supply chain are piloting various supply chain security and integrity initiatives promoted by customs to establish trusted business-to-customs partnership for facilitating global trade and cutting out avoidable supply chain costs and delays due to governmental regulations compliance and unnecessary customs inspection. While existing Auto-ID enabled tracking and tracing solutions are promising for implementing these practices, they provide few efficient privacy protection mechanisms for stakeholders involved in the international supply chain to communicate logistics data over dynamic business-to-business and business-government relationships. A unified privacy protection mechanism is proposed in this work to fill in this gap.
