First, the relationship between the Internet of Things and logistics warehouse management system analysis

RIFD technology and GPS technology is the most commonly used in China's logistics warehousing management system of the two major perceptual technologies. With the rapid development of the Internet of Things technology, logistics warehousing management system perception technology presents diversified development, which is mainly embodied in: sensing technology, M2M technology, Bluetooth technology, video recognition technology, etc., these technologies are mainly used in the following areas: cold chain activities are often selected temperature perception technology; logistics security and anti-theft activities are often selected intrusion system perception technology; the control of business processes are often selected video perception technology. The technology is often used in the control of business processes, such as video perception.

For the development mode of the Internet of Things, and other networks will be different, the Internet of Things is to promote the rapid development of the world economy as the goal of productivity, from a technical point of view of the architecture, the Internet, eh perception layer, network layer and application layer, the perception layer of the main components of the Class A sensors and inductors, the network layer is mainly used for the Internet, wireless communication networks and other networks, the application layer is mainly their role as a network, and the application layer is mainly used as a network, and the network layer is mainly used for the Internet, wireless communication networks and other networks. The application layer is mainly they act as an effective user and ensure the convergence of warehouse logistics management. IoT requires sensor technology, RFID technology and embedded system technology, in addition to the effective application of these technologies, the applications can be categorized in three basic ways depending on what is actually being used: smart object labeling, target object tracking, and environmental monitoring with intelligent control of objects. At this stage, the application of the Internet of Things is in the early stage of China's Internet development, only to realize the ? Things? Internet can truly optimize logistics management. Although the Internet of Things has been used in the logistics and warehouse management system, it has not been able to effectively play the function of the information base of the logistics management system, and therefore requires the combination of the logistics enterprise network system, the reconstruction of the logistics information system with appropriate adjustments, dedication to efficient things, the active use of modern logistics technology and equipment, logistics and intelligence work in order to promote change to ensure that our logistics system and warehouse management achieve long-term sustainability.

Second, the Internet of Things in logistics and warehousing management system application of the current situation

From the nature of the Internet of Things, it is manifested in three aspects : Internet features, identification and communication features and intelligent features. The above three features *** with the decision of the Internet of Things efficient. With the development of Internet of Things technology, it will play a significant positive impact on the promotion of intelligent logistics revolution, and further expand the development of logistics warehousing management system space.

In recent years, the major domestic logistics enterprises have recognized the advanced nature of the Internet of Things, and thus have introduced the Internet of Things into the field of logistics, and strive to achieve their own fast and stable development. The Internet of Things is a highly integrated and comprehensive use of a new generation of information technology, which has three significant functions: the integration of sensory recognition function, transmission and interconnection function and computing processing function. With the development of computer technology and network information technology, various industries to realize the application of the Internet of Things has become an inevitable trend in the information age. The introduction of the Internet of Things into the logistics and warehousing management system can not only realize the intelligent integration of the production system, logistics system, sales system and procurement system, but also break the traditional logistics processes and procedures, and further improve the efficiency and level of the logistics and warehousing management system. With the gradual maturation of the social network of things system, promoting the development of logistics and warehousing management system of local Internet of things, and gradually integrated into the social network of things, after the logistics and warehousing management system of local Internet of things can be realized with the social network of things and information resources *** enjoy, so that the user by virtue of the Internet or the Internet of things cell phone terminals will be able to achieve the query of the product information, which not only reduces the burden of logistics and warehousing management system, but also saves the time of users to query. And also saves the user's query time, the real realization of the product information anytime, anywhere query.

Third, the Internet of Things in warehouse management application research

(a) Internet of Things in the management of outbound and inbound management

Unmanned trucks and intelligent machines have been successfully introduced into the warehouse Internet of Things. Driven by sensing technology and information technology, the unmanned moving car gradually tends to be intelligent, the realization of intelligent unmanned moving car called intelligent moving car.

With the development of network technology, intelligent moving trucks are increasingly becoming an important part of logistics and warehouse management, is part of the intelligent logistics terminal, constituting a new Internet of Things operating system, so that logistics and warehouse management to achieve networked, intelligent operation, and to achieve the *** with the same intelligent logistics. From this point of view, the intelligent network and technology background of another network technology, intelligent trucks have good prospects for development to promote the development of the logistics industry will play a significant impact.

Based on the information collected, the goods are sent according to the list of goods storage warehouse operator, the goods will be passed to the warehouse operator. Warehouse operator then according to the data from the RFID device, or manual input, set to the national goods data, goods information will appear in the warehouse logistics warehouse management system, storage operations are completed to generate a data sheet of the stored products, product data records product storage name, model, date of production, storage time, excess storage space, quality status, warehouse manager and the number of code library and other issues of information. Information collection means that a warehouse manager who manages the database enters the product model, name and quantity in the system and the system automatically displays the current inventory status. Based on the bonded warehouse operator information on these products, the store manager verifies the removal and completes the operation of the library. Commodity space to complete the vehicle (such as forklifts) to collect transportation materials to certain goods storage, by the staff to complete the storage check, and then will be the current location information storage system access information to determine the final determination will usually be made by the warehouse management. The application of network technology can be easily, quickly, accurately, uninterruptedly and automatically with its technology deployed information system to enter the current storage location of the goods. The radio frequency recognition technology as an example to illustrate the defined storage space, and when the storage space, the storage is equipped with the electronic label, in order to determine the storage of the goods, through the channel in the mouth of the reader storage, the related information can be inserted automatically into the system goods warehouse logistics management. The current storage system records the information and checks whether it is allowed to pass the information to save and store the inventory information, if an error occurs the production information will be resolved by the employees to complete.

(ii) the application of Internet of Things technology in inventory management

An important function of the inventory management system is to realize the transfer of inventory, which is mainly used to change the location and quantity of items. Through the realization of the equity transfer function of this inventory management system, the ability to transfer inventory from this country to another country or multiple countries merged into one country, through the shares, not only facilitates the implementation of the transfer to ensure that the emissions of goods science, rationality, but also protects the safety of the goods transported for storage. Currently, most of us in the logistics industry has successfully launched the technology of positioning things, the storage of items, find the object and the discharge status tracking of the conditions of the flow of goods and make the necessary adjustments to their actions and scoring in real time and at the right time to ensure the sustainability of changes in the location of the materials stored in the material and information management systems.

Logistics trucks based on the released intelligent system receive instructions to transfer the depot to realize the rationality, science and safety of logistics storage arrangements, taking into account the specifics of the flow of information points outside the depot. Warehouse will be retained in important places of goods, the storage environment directly affects the quantity and quality of goods, thus determining whether to meet the requirements of customers. As an important part of the new generation of information technology, the Internet of Things mainly refers to the network system based on Internet technology to realize intelligent identification, positioning, tracking, monitoring and management. IoT has three distinctive features: generalization of equipment and facilities, interconnection and autonomy of service terminals, and intelligence. These three characteristics of the Internet of Things together determine the Internet of Things has been equipped with the function of measurement and access to reliable information, so the Internet of Things plays a key role in inventory management.

Abstract: With the rapid development of China's economy, the commodity trade is also getting stronger, which increases the business volume for transportation-based logistics enterprises. Risk problems in the process of logistics operations have also emerged, how to ensure the safety and reliability of transportation at the same time, to obtain the maximum economic benefits, which requires the choice of the optimal transportation program in the link of logistics and transportation, to avoid safety hazards. Urban logistics transportation there are many aspects of the limitations, this paper will start from the transportation of the route selection problem, and then on the ? The last kilometer? The problem is studied to give suggestions for a better urban logistics and transportation network.

Keywords: urban logistics transportation, the last kilometer, risk analysis

I. Risk analysis of logistics transportation

(a) The concept of risk

Risk refers to the degree of deviation from the expected return due to the impact of random factors.

(ii) the concept of risk analysis

Risk analysis is to find out the uncertainty of the course of action, analyze its environmental conditions and the degree of sensitivity to the program; estimate the relevant data, including the cost of the course of action, the benefits obtained under different circumstances and the probability of various opportunities for uncertainty, calculate the economic effects of the various risky scenarios; and make the right judgment.

(C) factors affecting

1. Insufficient creditworthiness of the subject of the transportation contract, resulting in invalid or ineffective performance of the contract.

2. The risk of compensation for loss of goods due to improper transportation and storage of goods.

3. The risk of breach of contract arising from the failure to inspect, hand over, receive and accept special instructions from the owner of the goods in time in the fulfillment of the contract.

4. Risk of compensation for delayed delivery of goods.

5. The risk of environmental pollution.

Second, the urban logistics and transportation network

China is currently in a stage of rapid development, the strengthening of economic strength has brought about a day-to-day increase in the volume of trade, the rapid rise of the logistics industry has become inevitable. Logistics mainly includes two aspects: transportation and warehousing. With the accelerated urbanization process in China, logistics and transportation in the city is also developing rapidly, which establishes the modern logistics in the development of the city's economy in the pillar position. The construction of urban logistics system is mainly based on the city characteristics, development orientation, industrial structure characteristics, city scale, geographic location and other factors, scientific planning of logistics network and logistics channels. The location of the logistics network determines the mode, structure and operational efficiency of the entire logistics system.

The planning and layout of the logistics network not only affects the business activities of enterprises, but also affects the city's transportation function and ecological environment, while the solution of the site selection model based on the present data will be proved to be sub-optimal when used in the future economic environment [1]. Based on the idea of logistics network integration, the third-party logistics enterprise services and manufacturing enterprises as a starting point, the establishment of distribution centers in the city, through the case study to draw the idea of logistics and transportation network construction.

Case A company has three branch factories in three places to produce the same product, the output of which is 300 cases, 400 cases, 500 cases. It needs to supply four places for sales, and the demand for the product in these four places is 400 cases, 250 cases, 350 cases, and 200 cases respectively.

Third, logistics and transportation? The last kilometer?

(a)? The last kilometer? Concept

The last kilometer of logistics is the last link in the distribution, and its advantage is that it can be realized? Door to door?

(B) the problems faced

Experts believe that China's logistics services organization, socialization, specialization, information technology is low, which directly leads to? The last kilometer? s lower logistics efficiency and higher costs,? One side of the bundle of grass, while hungry cattle? The phenomenon is more prominent. With the deepening of urbanization, the increasing demand for distribution, logistics transportation needs more distribution vehicles. However, due to the supply and demand information channel is not smooth, the city? The last kilometer? is often? Cargo can not find a car, a car can not find goods? , resulting in more serious problems such as idling.

At the same time, due to the emergence of such problems, will also lead to an increase in logistics costs, and will be reflected in the increase in the cost of transporting goods. Highlighted in the increase in the price of vegetables. On the one hand, the problem is that vegetable farmers are selling at extremely low prices, and on the other hand, the high market price of vegetables. Vegetable prices from the origin to the sale of the place will rise dozens of times, from the origin of a few cents a catty, transported to the outskirts of the city will rise to a few cents a catty. Because of the city traffic control and other issues, and to ensure the freshness of vegetables, people and goods mixed vehicles are not allowed on the road, vegetable vendors can only through the minivan loaded vegetables into the city. The minivan meets the traffic police fines, and will lead to another rise in the cost of vegetables. Vegetables transported to the market, due to the vegetable vendors also exist stall fees, sanitation fees, utility costs, the price of vegetables will rise again. So, vegetables from the farmers to the market, although only after a short period of more than ten hours, its price will rise from a few cents to a few dollars.

Not only that, with the development of e-commerce, the courier industry is also rapidly rising. E-commerce is accompanied by information flow, business flow, capital flow and logistics. People place great emphasis on the electronic and networked information flow and capital flow in e-commerce, while ignoring the electronic process of logistics. However, with the further promotion and application of e-commerce, the importance of logistics on e-commerce activities is becoming increasingly obvious, but the lagging logistics capabilities on its development constraints are also becoming more and more obvious. The express? The last kilometer? Problem complaints reflect the most express delays, express loss, damage and other issues, more than 90% of these complaints appear in the ? End delivery? This has become a major bottleneck in the development of express delivery enterprises.

(C) the solution to the first exploration

In the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Finance under the guidance of the city *** with the distribution of the pilot as an opportunity to increase the investment in business logistics infrastructure, promote innovation in logistics and distribution mode of operation, promote the application of modern logistics technology to improve the efficiency of logistics and distribution, urban logistics and distribution system is further improved, the planning and layout of the increasingly reasonable, the pilot has achieved initial results. The pilot has achieved initial results. Key support areas and directions include: the construction of public **** service platform; logistics distribution centers, public **** distribution centers and end distribution outlets three-tier distribution network system; the application of modern advanced technology to carry out the supply chain, Internet of Things, information platforms, cold chain distribution, path optimization, integrity certification and other management demonstrations; the application of standardized equipment to encourage the transformation or rent standardized warehouses, standardize the compartment-type standard distribution vehicles. Promote standard coding, transport with boards, storage cage transport; distribution model innovation, encourage the development of *** with the distribution in the field of service residents living, chain commercial distribution, e-commerce distribution, highlighting FMCG, fresh food, medicines, household appliances and other distribution priorities, to meet the needs of consumer personalization, diversification and convenience.

The construction of urban *** with the distribution service system, is an important part of the construction of large markets, large circulation, I hope that all departments and regions to strengthen the system design, overall deployment, up and down linkage, *** with the promotion.

First, we must strengthen the top-level design, enhance the systematic, holistic, synergistic, scientific planning, rational layout of the city *** with the distribution network nodes; improve the relevant support policies, to carry out the city *** with the distribution to provide institutional safeguards.

Second, we should study the development of standards. Pilot cities should be urban *** with the distribution service system elements, all aspects of the standardization, the implementation of national technical standards, management standards and service standards, the lack of standards, can first explore the development of regional standards.

Third, to create a favorable environment. The city government should be included in the important agenda, set up by the city leaders in charge of the business, financial sector, led by the relevant departments involved in the city *** with the distribution of the work of the leading group, a clear division of responsibilities, improve the coordination mechanism, the formation of synergies; should be combined with the characteristics of the region's economic development and the relevant planning, the study and introduction of support for the pilot of the localized, differentiated policies to enjoy the logistics in the areas of water, electricity, tax, land, etc. The company's business is also a major player in the market.

Fourth, the conclusion

Urban logistics and transportation is the last node of the entire logistics transfer process. With the construction of the worldwide information network, logistics transportation in the process of long-distance transmission speed has been greatly improved, information flow, capital flow, business flow can be accompanied by logistics in a timely manner.

At present, the state should focus on the construction of urbanized logistics network, through the opening of distribution centers, optimization of urban transportation and other measures to strengthen the smoothness of urban logistics network. Enterprises themselves should be based on market demand, in a timely manner to improve the allocation of resources of the enterprise, planning transportation routes, and try to avoid the ? The last kilometer? The problem brings losses to the enterprise. The establishment of a good supply chain system, through the control of each node in the chain, to achieve the optimization of the entire supply chain.
