Abstract
A nanosensor is an improvement in sensor technology,
which is based on the use of structures provided by recent
advances in nanotechnology, such as nanowires, nanotubes and
nanopores. This paper reviews the recent application of
nanosensor technology in the field of logistics management, from
packaging, storage, distribution, tracking and tracing and safety.
This review suggests that, even with a clear focus on how
nanosensor technology may help improve logistics management
chains, the next area of research must be to investigate whether an awareness of the technical advances and benefits alone will be
sufficient to overcome resistance by participants of logistics
organisations and accelerate the adoption of these technologies by
businesses to enhance the efficiency of logistics and service
creditability.
