Examining the Architecture, Relationships and Relevant Degree of Smart Logistics Information Technology: A Literature-Based Analysis

Based on a comprehensive analysis of the literature, this paper examines and investigates the architecture, interrelationships, and relevant degree of smart logistics information technology. Through an in-depth study of literature from the past five years, this paper establishes a more systematic and comprehensive information technology architecture for smart logistics. We analyze five types of relationships between technologies: inheritance, substitution, symbiosis, membership, and support. Furthermore, this paper discusses the relevant degree of symbiotic relationship and supportive relationship. The research findings demonstrate that smart logistics information technology plays a crucial role in the modern logistics industry with extensive application prospects. However, it is important to note that this paper solely relies on literature analysis which may result in certain biases towards the actual implementation status of smart logistics information technology. Therefore, further research combining practical implementations is necessary to strengthen its depth and exploration. The research outcomes presented in this paper provide valuable insights for promoting the integrated application of smart logistics information technology.
