Abstract

The work presents a literature review for clustering prospects of DTT for sustainable logistics and supply chain processes in manufacturing. Results indicate that DTT such as additive manufacturing, cloud, and auto-identification lead to possible improvements with regard to transparency in energy consumption, reducing distribution distances and optimizing logistics resources.
