A revolution in connectivityA mobile communications revolution is under way. Soon every truck and van will have its own on-board computer and guidance system, and every mobile field worker and sales rep will have a handheld or a PDA. Whatever you can do in the office or warehouse, you'll be able to do out on the road; and you'll be able to control and monitor it all from a single central point. Where m.logistics fits inm.logistics is the first and only magazine to draw the strands of this process together. Whether you're looking at office, warehouse, truck cab, delivery drop or sales and service call, we can help guide you through the maze of hardware, software and networking technologies and strategies. What we arem.logistics is two things. It's a printed bi-monthly glossy magazine, published in the UK but available to overseas subscribers too; and it's this Web site, complete with a searchable archive of our previous editorial, plus invaluable industry information. What we coverWe cover handheld terminals and PDAs; laptop computers; mobile voice and data communications; on-board computers; telematics and in-cab navigation systems; wireless networking; RFID; vehicle and asset tracking, location and management; data capture and synchronisation; routing, scheduling and digital mapping; and field service support. We give equal emphasis to hardware, systems, strategy and implementation. Our objectivem.logistics makes sense of all these advanced technologies (and more besides). It shows you how they work, what they're for, who's using them and what they can do for you. And it does this in a bright, readable way that brings it all to life. Business sense, consumer styleWe think there are enough dry business magazines out there already, so we take our own distinct line. Alongside essential industry news, in-depth features and real-life case studies, we include plenty of lively product reports and hands-on reviews. We think this technology is FUN and our aim is to convince you of it, too! Make no mistake, the technologies and strategies we discuss have a cost, and need sound commercial justification. But they're also exciting, and we want to share the buzz with you. Who we areWe're a small but enthusiastic London-based team with extensive and wide-ranging experience of transport, logistics and IT journalism. We're part of the group that launched the award-winning e.logistics Magazine to wide acclaim in 2000, and over the years, individually we've contributed to a vast range of other publications. Other things we doAs a group, we publish Telematics Guide, the definitive printed and online listing of over 500 companies in the telematics and field service space; Fulfilment & e.logistics magazine, the definitive publication about leading-edge developments in e-commerce and logistics; and Fulfilment Guide, the essential annual guide and web site listing o fulfilment services and their providers. Watch for more products, too! We also participate in a range of events in the industry calendar. |
