Simulative analysis for performance measurement of RFID implementation in cargo handler logistics

The research focuses on the Air Cargo Handler logistic activities that take place in warehouses. The performances of these activities are highly influenced by human errors. Radio-Frequency IDentification (RFID) implementation in warehouses allows to promptly detect human errors and to implement mitigation actions in order to reduce human error consequences. Consequences are analyzed in the paper in terms of delay in transit times. The paper proposes a methodology for evaluating RFID implementations in air cargo handler's warehouses. Different set-ups of RFID implementation in cargo handler logistics define different scenarios and the proposed methodology allows to compare the performances of these scenarios
