Product Personalization and Customization: Proposing a System Architecture that Integrates Self-Transactional Materials with RFID and IoT Shared Database
Elena PUICA 5
This research paper presents a novel system architecture that integrates Self-Transactional materials with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Internet of Things (IoT), and a Shared Database to enable efficient product personalization and customization in supply chain management (SCM). By utilizing RFID tags to carry unique customer preferences or design specifications and leveraging IoT technologies for data communication and control, this proposed architecture aims to streamline the manufacturing processes and enhance customer satisfaction. The shared database serves as a central repository for storing customer-specific information and facilitates seamless coordination across the supply chain. Through the integration of these technologies, this system architecture demonstrates potential for reducing lead times, supporting flexible manufacturing processes, and achieving accurate and timely customization of products.

The Need of Advanced Driver-Assistance System’s Development based on an Analysis of Road Accidents
Diana GHEORGHE 17
Taking a look at the numbers of road accidents using Machine Learning techniques and configuring predictions based on historic data, the paper aims to emphasize the need of a method to decrease numbers of accidents. Machine learning techniques have shown great potential in analyzing large-scale datasets related to road accidents. By leveraging these techniques, researchers have been able to identify key contributing factors, such as driver behavior, road conditions, and vehicle characteristics, which play a crucial role in accident occurrence. Through the analysis of historical accident data, machine learning models can effectively predict the likelihood of future accidents and identify high-risk areas, enabling proactive measures to be implemented. ADAS systems provide real-time information and assist drivers in making informed decisions while driving, thereby mitigating potential risks. A particular interest of this Article is underlining the importance of ADAS in the automotive field and how it can benefit the drivers.

Analysis of Electronic Business of European Union and Serbia Companies Based on the LMAW-DNMA Method
Radojko LUKIC 29
Modern companies perform their business activities in the classic way and electronically. Recently, there is an increasingly pronounced trend for companies from all countries of the world, which means both the European Union and Serbia, to conduct business activities electronically. Electronic business enables the performance of business activities in real time, without geographical and time barriers. The effects of electronic business are, among other things, an increase in sales, a reduction in costs and thus an increase in profits. In this paper, the trend and rankings of the electronic business of companies in the European Union and Serbia are comparatively analyzed. The general conclusion is that the participation of electronic business in the overall business of companies in the European Union and Serbia is increasing. This is almost the case with companies all over the world. The electronic business of Serbian companies is at a lower level compared to companies in the European Union. It is also at a lower level compared to companies in Croatia and Slovenia. Considering the positive effects of electronic business, it is necessary for Serbian companies to invest as much as possible in information and communication technology.
