“…When protocols rules are violated, exceptions occur. The exceptions have various consequences such as productivity drops, increases in various costs or decrease in customer satisfaction [4,5]. Because of these consequences, it is crucial to detect and handle exceptions appropriately.…”

“…But, this is costly and inefficient because human-based operations are more error prone and more costly compared to automated approaches. For these reasons, there is an ongoing research on automating exception handling in supply-chain management systems [6,4,7,8]. These approaches mostly assume that first exceptions occur and then the approaches recover from these exceptions.…”

“…Huhns et al [4] group different exception categories such as missed deadlines, errors in product definitions, late payments, and so on. Most exceptions can be viewed as breach of commitments between some of the parties in the supply chain.…”

Abstract. Exceptions occur frequently in supply-chains. Consequently, detecting exceptions timely is of great practical value. To enable a timely detection of exceptions, this paper develops an agent-based model for supply-chains. The participants are modeled as autonomous agents that can reason about their interactions and communicate with other agents. The communications of the agents create and manipulate commitments. Violation of commitments leads to exceptions. We provide two methods for detecting such violations. First one uses an AND/OR tree to break down a commitment into smaller commitments and to decide on violation when sub parts of a commitment are violated. The second one uses an ontology to predict if a commitment is going to be violated. Using both approaches jointly, we can detect exceptions in a timely manner.

“…According to Becker (2000), companies can lose between 9 per cent and 20 per cent of their share value over a sixmonth period due to logistics exceptions. The logistics exceptions have various consequences such as delayed production, increases in costs or decreases in customer satisfaction (Huhns et al 2002). In order to minimise the exception consequences, it is crucial to detect and handle exceptions appropriately.…”

Abstract. A logistics information service manages a large amount of products and product transport flow. Many applications request logistics information from a logistics information service. For effective sharing of logistics information and knowledge, the design of a logistics information management system is important. The current web is changing to a semantic web that provides a common framework for data sharing. In this paper, we present a logistics information service architecture that supports a semantic web. Our logistics information service deals with RFID-sensed data and product-related data such as attribute, and containments. Logistics data is represented using the RDF for service to various applications.
