Silicon Economy - open source platform for digital logistics

With Silicon Economy, an open source infrastructure was developed for the platform economy of the future. The aim was to create a software and hardware basis for autonomous, AI-supported logistics that also ensures the transparent and secure handling of data. This should enable companies to use digital platforms more efficiently and develop innovative business models based on networked data.

Core objectives and developments

The project focused on:

• The development of a digital infrastructure for data-driven business models
• Autonomous and AI-supported solutions for forward-looking logistics
• Enabling secure and efficient data exchange via digital platforms
• An open and modular architecture for flexible integration into existing IT systems
• Increasing interoperability between different players in the logistics industry

This basis has made it easier for companies to use digital platforms cost-effectively and link existing data efficiently in order to develop new business models.

Project coordination and realization

As part of the Silicon Economy, the team took on responsibility in the following areas:

• Project coordination and management
• Support in the realization of open source applications
• Supporting the implementation and development of innovative solutions
• Development of standards for the smooth integration of new technologies
• Collaboration with companies to validate and optimize practical applications

Results and added value

The developments in the project made it possible:

• A scalable, open platform for digital logistics solutions
• Simplified integration of autonomous systems into existing processes
• New possibilities for using and linking logistics data
• Reduction of operational costs through more efficient data processing
• Increasing sustainability through optimized use of resources in logistics
