Automatic guided vehicles have become an important part of transporting goods in dynamic environments, and how to design an efficient path planning method for multiple AGVs is a current research hotspot. Due to the complex road conditions in dynamic environments, there may be dynamic obstacles and situations in which only the target point is known but a complete map is lacking, which leads to poor path planning and long planning time for multiple automatic guided vehicles (AGVs). In this paper, a two-level path planning method (referred to as GA-KL, genetic KL method) for multi-AGVs is proposed by integrating the scheduling policy into global path planning and combining the global path planning algorithm and local path planning algorithm. First, for local path planning, we propose an improved Q-learning path optimization algorithm (K-L, Kohonen Q-learning algorithm) based on a Kohonen network, which can avoid dynamic obstacles and complete autonomous path finding using the autonomous learning function of the Q-learning algorithm. Then, we adopt the idea of combining global and local planning by combining the K-L algorithm with the improved genetic algorithm; in addition, we integrate the scheduling policy into global path planning, which can continuously adjust the scheduling policy of multi-AGVs according to changes in the dynamic environment. Finally, through simulation and field experiments, we verified that the K-L algorithm can accomplish autonomous path finding; compared with the traditional path planning algorithm, the algorithm achieved improves results in path length and convergence time with various maps; the convergence time of the algorithm was reduced by about 6.3%, on average, and the path length was reduced by about 4.6%, on average. The experiments also show that the GA-KL method has satisfactory global search capability and can effectively avoid dynamic obstacles. The final experiments also demonstrated that the GA-KL method reduced the total path completion time by an average of 12.6% and the total path length by an average of 8.4% in narrow working environments or highly congested situations, which considerably improved the efficiency of the multi-AGVs.

As the development of the Internet of Things (IoT) continues, Federated Learning (FL) is gaining popularity as a distributed machine learning framework that does not compromise the data privacy of each participant. However, the data held by enterprises and factories in the IoT often have different distribution properties (Non-IID), leading to poor results in their federated learning. This problem causes clients to forget about global knowledge during their local training phase and then tends to slow convergence and degrades accuracy. In this work, we propose a method named FedRAD, which is based on relational knowledge distillation that further enhances the mining of high-quality global knowledge by local models from a higher-dimensional perspective during their local training phase to better retain global knowledge and avoid forgetting. At the same time, we devise an entropy-wise adaptive weights module (EWAW) to better regulate the proportion of loss in single-sample knowledge distillation versus relational knowledge distillation so that students can weigh losses based on predicted entropy and learn global knowledge more effectively. A series of experiments on CIFAR10 and CIFAR100 show that FedRAD has better performance in terms of convergence speed and classification accuracy compared to other advanced FL methods.

Compared with traditional physical commodities, data are intangible and easy to leak, and the related trading process has problems, such as complex participating roles, lengthy information flow, poor supervisory coverage and difficult information traceability. To handle these problems, we construct a distributed supervision model for data trading based on blockchain, and conduct multi-party hierarchical and multi-dimensional supervision of the whole process of data trading through collaborative supervision before the event, at present and after the event. First, the characteristics of information flow in the data trading process are analyzed, and the main subject and key supervision information in the data trading process are sorted out and refined. Secondly, combined with the actual business process of data trading supervision, a multi-channel structure of distributed supervision is proposed by adopting an access–verification–traceability strategy. Finally, under the logical framework of the supervision model, the on-chain hierarchical structure and the data hybrid storage method of “on-chain + off-chain” are designed, and multi-supervisor-oriented hierarchical supervision and post-event traceability are realized through smart contracts. The results show that the constructed blockchain-based distributed supervision model of data trading can effectively isolate and protect sensitive and private information between data trading, so as to realize the whole process, multi-subject and differentiated supervision of key information of data trading, and provide an effective and feasible method for the controllable and safe supervision of data trading.

The research work in this paper can mention the real‐time and accuracy of logistics tracking information management, which has significant guiding significance to the information security of the logistics industry. This paper first analyzes the business process of logistics enterprises, obtains the demand analysis of logistics tracking management system, divides the whole logistics tracking management system into several functional modules according to the logistics business process of enterprises, analyzes and designs these system functional modules, and gives the model of system functions. After analyzing and designing the system, for the data processing problem in the wireless sensor network, the difference transmission algorithm based on the mean expectation is proposed, which calculates the mean value as the expected value under the specific data model. Then, the data of the difference between the collected value and the expected value is transmitted to reduce the amount of data sent by the nodes, reduce energy consumption, extend the network life cycle, and ensure the stability of the logistics tracking information system. The purpose is to reduce the amount of data sent by nodes, reduce energy consumption, extend the network life cycle, and ensure the stable operation of the logistics tracking information system. In this paper, we describe the logistics tracking system based on a wireless sensor network, which has not only features such as sharing and flexibility but also has high fault tolerance. The system is designed for functional modules such as procurement management, inventory management, and sales management. The JAVA technology platform is selected for design and development, and the SQL Server database is selected for the backend of the system, and a simple and easy‐to‐use WEB interface for the user service side of the system is designed to meet the needs of a user‐friendly environment. The implementation of the system also makes some theoretical and practical contributions to the design and development of similar logistics tracking information management systems based on wireless sensor networks.

In order to mitigate the influence of human subjectivity on indicator weights in the performance evaluation of enterprise collaboration, and explore the nonlinear relationship between the enterprise collaboration influencing factors and the evaluation results, this paper propose a combined performance evaluation model based on AHP-EW and an improved Elman neural network. Firstly, based on the characteristics of collaboration among manufacturing enterprises, the evaluation system for the collaborative performance of manufacturing enterprises is constructed from three dimensions. Moreover, this study combines subjective and objective weighting methods to obtain comprehensive weights that take into account both expert experience and objective information. Then, an improved Elman neural network is proposed and trained to predict and evaluate the collaborative performance indicator data, which greatly shortens the evaluation time and improves evaluation accuracy. The experimental results show that the proposed model has a faster convergence speed and higher accuracy, which will provide a valuable reference for decision making and the management of enterprise collaboration.
