Abstract

Integration of advanced digital technologies along with ensuring environmental sustainability in the logistics sector is becoming the need of the hour novel multimodal transportation concept. The rapid technological development in the era of industry 4.0 can not only create new opportunities in achieving highly efficient, intelligent, and smart logistics systems but also enable new business models for value addition, additionally, this novel system will also avoid environmental degradation and use of scarce natural resources that contribute to climate change. This paper summarizes the research trends of these technologies in multimodal logistics systems since 2005 through a systematic literature review. The results revealed a mixed picture of the situation, starting from emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and blockchain becoming key technological concepts for multimodal logistics systems to government policy hurdles and lack of impact breakthroughs in the industry. However, the results show that adaptation to these technologies improves the overall environmental, economic, and social sustainability of the system.

先进数字技术在实现多式联运物流业务可持续性方面的作用和应用：系统文献综述

将先进的数字技术与确保物流业的环境可持续发展相结合，正在成为当务之急的新型多式联运概念。工业 4.0 时代技术的飞速发展不仅为实现高效、智能和智慧物流系统创造了新机遇，还促成了新的增值商业模式，此外，这种新型系统还将避免环境退化和稀缺自然资源的使用，以免造成气候变化。本文通过系统的文献综述，总结了自 2005 年以来这些技术在多式联运物流系统中的研究趋势。结果显示，从人工智能、机器学习和区块链等新兴技术成为多式联运物流系统的关键技术概念，到政府政策障碍和行业缺乏影响突破，情况喜忧参半。不过，研究结果表明，适应这些技术可以改善系统的整体环境、经济和社会可持续性。
