 Means

to communicate between companies from one computer to another.

fastest, easiest, and most productive way.

The

Computer-to-computer

communication eliminates the need to fax documents. a complete and comprehensive audit.

Provides

EDI benefits:
Reduced

manual data entry Reduced postage and handling costs Reduced labour processing costs Reduced order cycle Increased customer service Improved accuracy of data Reduced lead time Reduced paper handling Reduced inventory carrying costs

 E.g.-Cisco

reportedly ship 45% of their products without being touched by human hands save around $550 million a year as a result of transferring most of their business to the net.

 Global

Positioning System: a navigational system involving satellites and computers that can determine the latitude and longitude of a receiver on Earth by computing the time difference for signals from different satellites to reach the receiver

 12

stationary satellites in three layers, four in each orbiting the earth. Determine the latitude and longitude to an accuracy of one meter. Once position of vehicle is known, it can be transmitted to other Centre . The transmission Centre will be a mobile telephone or internet. In GPS, a voice-over facility for the driver to speak and hear instruction, and LCD, with keyboard are available.

A geographic information system (GIS), or geographical information system, is any system that captures, stores, analyzes, manages, and presents data that are linked to location.

GIS consist of software tools for the visualization of spatial feature and database relating to geography. Data relating to the specific location of an entity on the earth are stored in database. GIS then integrates the different types of data in the databases to create a detailed, clear visualization of data relating to that entity.

Bar Coding is a series of parallel vertical lines (bars and space), that can be read by bar code scanners. It is used worldwide as part of product packages, as price tags, carton labels, on invoices even in credit card bills and when it is read by scanners, a wealth of data is made available at the users The bar code become unique and universal and can be recognized anywhere in the world.

 Bar

Codes are of two types: a. Linear barcode b. 2D barcode A linear bar code consists of vertical black lines and white spaces that carry data. Linear bar codes are interpreted using software and special devices such as laser scanners.

Dimensional Bar Codes use similar technology as linear bar codes but carry about 100 times more data

They

also have an additional feature that allows the bar code to be read even when part of it has been damaged or blurred.

 Radio

frequency identification (RFID) technology provides a means of automatic identification. It is already widely used in animal tagging and electronic payment, such as Transport for London Oyster Cards. Many other potential applications such as improving supply chain efficiency and reducing crime are being investigated. Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a generic term that is used to describe a system that transmits the identity (in the form of a unique serial number) of an object or person wirelessly, using radio waves

 There a. b.

are two types of systems in RFID: Radio Frequency Tags (RFT) Memory Buttons

 RFTs

are used as an alternative to bar codes for communicating inventory data to the reader via radio waves. The reader is connected to the central computer. RFTs are pieces of silicon chip to store data in the microcircuit. Data is loaded in encrypted form on "read only" tags, which can be read but not altered.

Memory buttons contain an encapsulated microprocessor. The information is stored in the microprocessor encapsulated in the button that is attached to the package. The information can be read with an electronic device , without touching the package. In the case of overseas dispatches, the memory buttons are keyed in with information required by various agencies, such as customs, inspection, shipping and forwarding, which facilitates speedy clearing of the consignment.
