Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to efficiently manage data required to verify the loading waiting time of a logistics contractor (truck driver), while ensuring the accuracy of the data. A metadata storage control unit 103 executes control to cause metadata relating to main data to be stored on a network N using blockchain technology or distributed ledger technology. A main data storage control unit 104 executes control to associate linking data linking metadata stored on the network N and the main data with the main data, and to store the same in a main data database 181 on a server 1.

Abstract: The present invention is for calculating a distribution fee for when an article is transported by a moving body. According to the present invention, an article-characteristic-information acquisition unit 81 acquires article characteristic information that has been transmitted from a storage site terminal 3-Q. A moving-body-characteristic-information acquisition unit 82 acquires moving body characteristic information that has been transmitted from the storage site terminal 3-Q. When input information has been transmitted from a user terminal 2, an input-information acquisition unit 80 acquires the input information that has been transmitted from the user terminal 2-P.

Abstract: The present invention makes it possible for a person (a sender or a third party) that is not on a production side or a distribution side to form a distribution plan. According to the present invention, a received-order-information acquisition unit 61 acquires sender S side received-order information. (information on an order from a customer C or information on an order placed to a vendor V (a production/supply source)) from a sender terminal 3 or a vendor terminal 4 via a communication unit 19. A received-order-to-distribution conversion unit 62 converts the acquired received-order information into distribution information. (information on arrival from the vendor V (the production/supply source), information on shipping to the customer C). A parameter acquisition unit 63 acquires, from a parameter DB 71, parameters that include at least deadline, cost, and quality (accident rate).

Abstract: The present invention is for calculating a distribution fee for when an article is transported by a moving body. According to the present invention, an article-characteristic-information acquisition unit 81 acquires article characteristic information that has been transmitted from a storage site terminal 3-Q. A moving-body-characteristic-information acquisition unit 82 acquires moving body characteristic information that has been transmitted from the storage site terminal 3-Q. When input information has been transmitted from a user terminal 2, an input-information acquisition unit 80 acquires the input information that has been transmitted from the user terminal 2-P.

Abstract: When a moving body is to receive a new, additional article for transport, the present invention makes it possible for the new, additional article to be received for transport with consideration given not only to restrictions on the weight that can be transported by the moving body but also to restrictions on driver compliance. According to the present invention, a present-situation-information acquisition unit 71 acquires: respective characteristic values for one or more articles that include a prescribed article and are being transported by a moving body; and present transport conditions that include respective transport routes for the one or more articles. An additional-conditions acquisition unit 72 acquires: a characteristic value for an additional article; and additional transport conditions that include a transport route for the additional article.

Abstract: Provided is a feature with which it is possible to successively determine the optimum route of a mobile entity and, as a result thereof, effectively operate a service or the like of keeping goods from a user in custody. A base information management unit 50 retrieves (manages) base information and transmits same to a server 1. A warehouse information management unit 70 retrieves (manages) warehouse information and transmits same to the server 1. A base information retrieval unit 80 retrieves the base information transmitted from a base terminal 2. A warehouse information retrieval unit 81 retrieves warehouse information transmitted from a warehouse terminal 3. A route determination unit 82 determines an optimum route from the base information and warehouse information retrieved by the sever 1 and determines the use information of a user.
