Abstract :
Starting with analyzing the significance of the express freight information platform, this paper proposes a structural model of the express freight system. Also, an express freight information platform model based on RFID and Web technology is built, and the modelpsilas operation flow, data flow, a standard technical solution toward the efficient communication among different userpsilas information system are proposed, thus to provide a business platform of automated express freight information. In this way, the real integration of the logistics and the information stream can be realized eventually. Also, the functional model of visualized express freight information system is proposed. The content of this paper provides theoretical directions for the informationization of the express freight enterprises, thus to improve their service level.
