a proposed model for enhancing cross -docking through the use of EPC technology

supply chains are going to evolve by a new technology based on radio frequency identification which provides new ooportunities in automatic identification that none of previous technologies offered this is called the electronic product code technology and appears to have the potential to enhance supply chain management by not only making its enablers more efficient but also facilitating their implementation this explores how the EPC technology can further improve the efficiency of product replenishment employing cross-docking approachwhich is a typical efficient rrplenishment strategy.
