Abstract: A method and related system for monitoring a time-temperature profile comprises measuring by a temperature sensor a temperature of an object, recording by an electronic device a time-temperature data point including the temperature and a time at which the temperature was measured, communicating the recorded time-temperature data point by the electronic device to a computing system, and determining by the computing system whether the recorded time-temperature data point is outside a predetermined acceptable range.

Abstract: In a freight management system a translator in a monitor system receives and transmits data in standard freight message format from and to a number of users, as well as in a variety of wireless formats to and from freight assets, and automatically in real time translates between the formats. The translator receives sensed data from the freight assets and transmits the translated data to the respective users while transmitting commands in wireless format to the freight assets on the basis of data received in standard freight message format.
Abstract: A freight management arrangement includes a monitor system that communicates over wireless with a large number of freight assets by land and with smaller number of users each associated with a fleet of the freight assets. The monitor system polls sensed ambient data in the freight assets on the basis of requests from the users. The requests may be stored as data in the monitor system or occur on a real-time basis.
