Beschreibung
Advanced information systems for the enterprise and the supply chain can help to ensure the integrity and the safety of food products. Problems caused by poor design and bad communication of information systems, must be avoided both on the level of the enterprise and the supply chain. Reference-data modelling is a method that supports the development, standardisation and integration of information systems in enterprises and supply chains. In this book, the advantages of the method reference-data modelling and specific designs of tracking and tracing, are presented. The publication consists of conducted scientific research into the way in which Information and Communication Technology (ICT) can positively contribute to the improvement of food safety. The book can assist in improving the control over the food production chain in general, and over food anomalies in particular.
