Abstract

Global trade will lead to more than a doubling of transport demand by 2050 in comparison to 2020. At the same time, the impact of pollutant emissions on the global climate is leading to increasingly stringent legislation regarding the environmental friendliness of transportation. Against this background, the transport and logistics industry has to undergo a major transformation in the coming years. Hence, transport efficiency will become more and more important. This will inevitably lead to a rethink in the industry about completely new transport and logistics concepts, such as the Physical Internet (PI). Here, transport efficiency and thus more environmental sustainability are supposed to be achieved by organizing the freight traffic like the data traffic on the digital Internet, with the highest expected potential through a road-based Physical Internet (RBPI). However, the realization of the RBPI depends on the existence of intelligent RBPI services enabled by suitable smart service platforms. In this paper, we propose to adapt a generic architecture for smart service platforms to the RBPI as a cornerstone for its technical implementation. This food for thought may serve as a starting point for further discussions and detailed development in the future.
