DESCRIPTION: \n\nTitle: A Research Agenda for the use of IoT technologies i
 n the Supply\nChain\n\nAbstract: The Internet of Things or IoT is a system
  of connected\ndevices embedded with sensors that collect\, process and ex
 change data.\nIt uses the existing Internet infrastructure based on ipv4 a
 nd ipv6.\nThe IoT framework is transforming entire industries\, creating\n
 “smart” cities\, and transforming the way we live\, travel\,\nmanufact
 ure\, transport and consume products.\n\nFrom smart appliances\, lighting\
 , meters and air conditioning to\nlocation trackers\, IoT enables major fi
 rms and smaller businesses\nalike to transform supply chains and make them
  more responsive\,\nefficient\, intelligent and easier to monitor and cont
 rol. The use of\nmillions of ever-cheaper sensors also provides a treasure
  trove of\ndata that empowers the use of analytics in supply chain managem
 ent and\nin tactical and strategic planning in organizations.\n\nThis pres
 entation presents an overview of the transformations that are\nalready tak
 ing place in supply chain management as a result of\nIoT-based systems. It
  examines the technologies\, business processes\,\nuse cases\, and impacts
  of the IoT on both local and extended supply\nchains. It goes on to prese
 nt major issues around IoT in the supply\nchain and proposes a set of majo
 r research questions that are deemed\ncritical for both practitioners and 
 academics seeking to understand\nand deploy IoT in organizations.\n
