Problems solved by technology

[0009] Either way, there is the problem that events that scan, detect, or (in general) take action on items can be delayed in being reported to some central database or processing entity
However, this delay can reduce the accuracy of tracking items
To some extent, the system may fail to provide accurate tracking, with various possible adverse consequences, such as reducing the efficiency of the processes involved, resulting in unnecessary consumption of energy, or, among other consequences, triggering false alarm

Embodiment Construction

[0021] figure 1 A schematic diagram showing a system for tracking items according to a general system embodiment of the present invention. The system includes an interface 20 configured to receive event data records 60 via a network 40 . The network 40 may include the Internet, a wireless local area network (WLAN), a wireless communication network (such as GSM, PCS, GPRS, UMTS, 3GPP, LTE, and related networks), a wired network, an ISDN network, a near field network (e.g., Bluetooth(TM)) any of these. The purpose of the network 40 is generally to transfer the event data records 60 from the collection device 50 to the interface 20 . The capture device 50 may include various individual devices and entities, such as scanners, barcode readers, sensors, and the like. In general, the collection device 50 is adapted to detect manipulation of one or more items (described in detail below).

[0022] The system further comprises a processing unit 10 which in turn comprises a processin...

Abstract

A system for tracking a plurality of items considers: an interface configured to receive an event data record including operational information indicative of an operation, time information indicative of a time the operation occurred, and an identification identifying at least one item information; a database configured to store state information indicative of one or more states of each of the plurality of items; and a processing unit configured to receive an event data record via the interface. The processing unit is configured to, in response to receiving the event data record, and for the at least one item identified by the identification information included in the received event data record: based on the received event data record, generate an indication after the operation State information of the state of the at least one item; querying from the database previous state information indicating the state of the at least one item immediately before the operation, and subsequent state information indicating the state of the at least one item immediately after the operation; if in response to querying the database Whereas previous state information is retrieved, for the transition between the state indicated by the state information that the first compliance assessment has produced and the state indicated by the previous state information, and if subsequent state information is retrieved in response to querying the database, for The second compliance evaluates the transition between the state indicated by the generated state information and the state indicated by subsequent state information.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to systems and methods for tracking items, and more particularly, the present invention relates to processing events including identification information identifying at least one item, operational information indicating an operation on the item, and time information indicating the time at which the operation occurred Systems and methods for data logging. More specifically, the invention also relates to corresponding processing entities, computer programs and computer program products. Background technique [0002] Tracking items is currently common practice in various industry sectors such as manufacturing and distribution of goods, on-site inspection and verification of items (commodities, products, documents, etc.), logistics, transportation, and the like. Such item tracking has been achieved by various traditional technological systems (including barcode readers, scanners, mobile terminals, network and communication eq...
