The Role of ICT in Green Logistics: A Systematic Literature Review

This chapter provides a systematic literature review of the field of Green Logistics with a focus on the role of ICT (Information and Communication Technology). It is based on 51 papers in international peer-reviewed journals and conferences. We analyze and cluster the papers in different areas, like Logistics category, ICT category and research methodology. Moreover, we identify different Information Systems used in Green Logistics and extract potential benefits of the use of ICT for Green Logistics and unsolved research problems. With this, information gaps in current research are determined and recommendations for further research are presented.
