Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are predicted to have a big impact on the logistics industry. However, currently, IoT is characterized by a diversity of standards and protocols. To make different IoT sensors and other devices interoperate, IoT Brokers are employed to facilitate decoupling of communicating IoT devices using the publish–subscribe communication approach. This paper proposes how such IoT Brokers can be introduced in logistics environments and discusses issues of trust and security that arise in IoT for logistics contexts.
