Abstract
Currently, the boom in B2B e-commerce logistics and the fragmentation of logistics networks have put tremendous pressure on the efficient and economical routing of packages. The idea of the cyber-physical internet (CPI) in logistics is to establish a new paradigm for sending and receiving goods, similar to how sending and receiving instant messages over the internet might be a solution. This work focuses on the routing process in B2B e-commerce logistics driven by the CPI. A framework of B2B e-commerce logistics in CPI networks is proposed to integrate logistics networks with components such as CPI routers, routing tables, and autonomous logistics systems (ALSs). Routing protocols within and among ALSs are proposed for making routing decisions based on information in routing tables for efficient and economical routing. Finally, two B2B e-commerce logistics scenarios are utilized to simulate the routing protocols in CPI networks to prove their feasibility, and their sensitivity is analysed. This work may support the improvement of B2B e-commerce logistics networks and intelligent logistics in Industry 4.0.
