Abstract :
Internet of Things (IoT) will be the new environment for the application of R/M integrated supply chain that includes the forward supply chain and the reverse supply chain. Under this new environment, the R/M integrated supply chain based on IoT will have some new characteristics. In order to investigate these new characteristics, we present the structure of R/M integrated supply chain based on IoT, introduce three stages (without RFID/EPC, with RFID and with RFID/EPC) of R/M integrated supply chain, and compare the third stage with the other two stages. The study results can help the managers to carry out the R/M integrated supply chain under IoT environment successfully.
