Hence, it has become very necessary to manage warehouses effectively and allocate their resources efficiently. Warehouse Management Systems (WMSs) have been developed for monitoring, tracking and controlling the warehouse operations, but with the increasing dynamicity of the market, traditional systems have become less efficient and unsuitable for today’s market requirements, that is why new technologies have started to emerge to be used for such applications. Internet of Things (IoT) is a promising technology that can be used in the context of Industry 4.0. In this paper, a smart WMS framework based on IoT is proposed; this system helps the warehouse manager to achieve more control and monitoring of the operations in real time. A review of WMS and IoT implementation in warehouses is presented. Also, the blocks and layers of IoT are illustrated. Finally,...
