Industry 4.0 has been partially defined by its use of machine-to-machine communication and Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices to create factories that operate like smart homes: an array of appliances and machines are brought into constant communication to create a cohesive, highly visible system. Logistics 4.0 operates under these same principles, but with a different set of parts. Specifically, it makes use of “smart” containers, vehicles, pallets, and transport systems to create a fully networked supply stream that offers supply chain managers, shippers, freight forwarders, and others the necessary visibility to route transport and optimally perform other logistics tasks. The concepts of Logistics 4.0 are becoming popular as logistics management evolves. Industry 4.0 impacts the corporate world through digitization both horizontal and vertical supply chains, products, services, business models, and customer relations.
How much this will affect the Reverse Logistics, especially Post-COVID recovery time?
Information technologies, ICT, Internet and advanced processing of big data, technologies of the current fourth technological revolution, and Industry 4.0 technologies allow enterprises to develop e-logistics during the SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) pandemic. Thanks to the aforementioned technologies, economic entities and institutions modify their logistic processes, increase the scope of digitization and internetization of supply, production and distribution logistics. Thanks to Industry 4.0 technologies, including the Internet of Things, cloud computing and machine learning, the production logistics processes are improved through the development of smart production solutions. In addition, thanks to the implementation of ICT, Internet and Industry 4.0 information technologies, logistics chains are shortened, including intermodal, transnational logistics chains of supply and distribution, and the scope of e-logistics applications increases.

We need a transformation of industry 5.0. Also, we need swarm robotics integration in industry 4.0.
Mahadi Hasan Miraz Many thank for your input. If you also have any good journal articles please feel free to share it here.
Have you read article from IJPR and ANOR on supply chain viability? The concept is interesting in super disruption Era, and is based on résilience, adaptability, sustainability principles as long as on industry 4.0 technologies. Dmitry Ivanov and Alexandre Dolgui work a lot on those topics.
Salomée Ruel Many thanks for your input, can you please also add the link to the suggested article here? It will help other readers to benefit from this discussion.

Hoping this will help!
Thank you very much Hermann Gruenwald for your great input and Happy New Year.
Hermann Gruenwald Thanks Hermann, I am living and working in Saigon. Have you been to Vietnam?
A indústria 4.0 chegou e não tem volta, contudo os governantes devem ficar alerta pois esta tecnologia já esta sucateando a mão de obra, muitos empresários veem a indústria 4.0 apena como redução de seus custos sem se preocupar com , não as pessoas. Muitos defendem que ao contrário serão criadas novas vagas, não deixa de ser verdade, pois há a necessidade de mão de obra qualificada, mas a necessidade ainda será muito menor em relação aos que serão e já estão sendo demitidos pelas novas tecnologias, um exemplo neste momento call centers e bancos.
