Abstract

This article presents a synthesized, publication-ready treatise that integrates principles from agile management, Kanban-based evolutionary change, resilient supply chain design, advanced spatio-temporal data warehousing, web-aware warehousing architectures, zero-latency grid approaches, and contemporary technological enablers such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and serverless computing. Drawing strictly on the provided references, the work develops a unified conceptual and methodological framework intended to guide researchers and practitioners seeking to design, deploy, and evaluate intelligent, adaptive, and secure warehouse-tracking and inventory management systems within modern supply chains. The abstracted framework positions Kanban-inspired flow control and agile practices as governance metaphors for continuous incremental improvement (Anderson, 2010), situates resilience and supply chain selection within product-specific logistics strategy (Christopher & Peck, 2004; Fisher, 1997), and treats data warehousing — both spatio-temporal and web-aware — as the central information substrate enabling situational awareness and decision support (Gómez et al., 2009; Tan, Yen, & Fang, 2003). The methodology section articulates a text-based design for integrating real-time IoT data streams, deep learning–enabled inference (Harshitha et al., 2021), and energy- and latency-aware architectures inspired by grid-based zero-latency designs (Nguyen et al., 2005). Security considerations, particularly for serverless deployments and network security, are foregrounded (Ahmadi, 2024). The results and discussion elaborate a descriptive analysis of system behavior, anticipated performance trade-offs, limitations of extant methods, and a rigorous agenda for future research. This article seeks to be both theoretically rich and practically oriented, offering deep exposition, counter-arguments, and critical nuance across the intersection of process, data, and technology for next-generation supply chain intelligence.
