A New Express Management System Based on Encrypted QR Code

Recently, the express service develops rapidly. However, traditional express service suffers from several noteworthy drawbacks, e.g., Low level of informatization, high risk of information leak and low efficiency of freight. In this paper, we propose a new express management system based on encrypted QR code to overcome above problem. Firstly, the system adopts an encrypted QR code to store all information of goods. Secondly, after courier scan the encrypted QR code by using our designed APP for smart phones, the real-time logistics information of goods in the database is automatically updated through GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) or Wi-Fi. In the meantime, the server sends the real-time logistics information of goods to consignee. Thirdly, the APP provides an optimal delivery route for courier by employing the improved genetic algorithm. Lastly, at the delivery point, after the courier scans the encrypted QR code, the APP automatically sends a message to consignee to receive goods. Our benchmark research shows that the new express management system can effectively protect the privacy of clients, improve efficiency of express service1.
