Real-time supply chain tracing using blockchain from cloud-based computing portal

Supply chain management is the approach applied to track products, including the transformation process. Real-time tracing techniques are considered to enhance the accuracy and performance rate of the tracing process.The main contribution of this work consists of a review of real-time tracing techniques in supply management with focus on cloud computing, Information extracted supports the development of a taxonomy of evaluation and classification processes, process stages and the role blockchain technology plays in improving tracing and data handling. This work is based on secondary research into articles related to real-time tracing techniques and supply chain management.We contribute to the body of knowledge for tracing in supply chain management through an up-to-date snapshot of the extent and breadth of research in the field and through clear identification of remaining challenges to guide future research.
