title = "Tracking and tracing applications in project-based supply chains",
abstract = "A tracking system is a computer system based around a so called checkpoint network: when a tracked item arrives at a collection point in the supply chain the status of the item is registered and an update messages are sent to a tracking database. New technological advances related to RFID, bar codes, GPS-trackers have enabled building a real-time view on supply chain. This paper analyses some of the technologies and proposes a framework that could be used in project-based industries including global suppliers and global deliveries.",
