Autonomous Context-aware Inventory Management (ACIM)

每天都有数百万个托盘穿过由生产商、运输商、分销商和供应商组成的复杂网络。在每一个阶段，不同的规则支配着可用性、生产率和分销路线、重新进货决策和物流雪崩。在从生产商到目的地的运输过程中，在每个交叉点跟踪和处理托盘的主要人工过程中存在重大障碍。在我们的自主情境感知库存管理（ACIM）项目中，我们将设计一个自主库存管理系统，该系统将引入托盘的实时跟踪以及输入空间的准确定位，以规定处理规则和访问权限。ACIM在本质上是自主的，允许可扩展的扩展和快速处理大量托盘，而无需人为干预决策过程。与G4 Apps Inc合作，皇后大学TRL将根据每个托盘的位置建立处理规则的动态发现，并为指定托盘级物流的位置分配配置文件。我们将利用皇后大学现有的Sprouts Sensing平台（http：//www.sensornodes.com/）实现实时跟踪和通信。ACIM，包括机架、本地化、通信和接口组件，是一个多方面的解决方案。我们预计商家和分销商的采用将产生重大影响。介绍安大略作为一个领导者自主库存管理解决方案。

Everyday millions of pallets traverse a complex network of producers, transporters, distributors and vendors. At every stage, different rules govern availability, production rates and distribution routes, re-stocking decisions and an avalanche of logistics. There are significant barriers in the largely manual process to tracking and handling pallets at every junction in their trip from producer to destination. In our Autonomous Context-aware Inventory Management (ACIM) project we will devise an autonomous inventory management system that will introduce real-time tracking of pallets as well as accurate localization of entered spaces to dictate handling rules and access rights. ACIM will be autonomous in nature to allow for scalable expansion and expedited handling of large volumes of pallets without human intervention in the decision process. In collaboration with G4 Apps Inc Queens University TRL will work to establish dynamic discovery of handling rules based on the location of each pallet, assigning profiles for locations that dictate pallet-level logistics. We will leverage Queens University's existing Sprouts Sensing platform (http://www.sensornodes.com/) to enable real-time tracking and communication. ACIM, with its racking, localization, communication and interface components, is a multi-faceted solution. We expect significant traction in adoption by merchants and distributors. presenting Ontario as a leaders autonomous Inventory management solutions.
