The digital transformation of the industry, with its technological components, has a direct impact on the alignment of logistics processes within companies as well as in entire corporate networks. The development and integration of new technologies is triggering more and more rigid corporate structures and control architectures. The vision ranges from decentralized networks of modular conveyor and storage technology to the application of artificial intelligence for smart services in logistics. There is a requirement to identify the logistic objects, to locate them, to control them and to record their states, in order to achieve a goal-oriented interaction in the sense of a holistic networking.
