Intelligent Containers and Sensor Networks Approaches to apply Autonomous Cooperation on Systems with limited Resources

RFIDs, sensor networks and low-power microcontrollers are increasingly applied in logistics. They are characterized by restrictions on calculation power, communication range and battery lifetime. In this article we consider how these new technologies can be utilized for autonomous cooperation and how these processes could be realized on systems with limited resources.
