All processes in the production and distribution of material goods, which include material and interactive information flows, are united by the term “Logistics” and are realized within the logistics processes. Logistics processes hide large technological and economic reserves that need to be identified, located and used. At the EU level, a new philosophy of realization of quality logistics processes has been created in the past decades, and it is increasingly including the environmental aspect by introducing the term Green Logistics, which highlights the demand for a healthy environment. The level of logistics process technology is still far below the level of development of material production technology, which is the main reason for giving strategic importance to the rationalization and optimization of logistics processes at the global level in order at reducing the costs of all participants in the implementation of the process, and especially in the direction of raising the quality of services and meeting the increasingly stringent requirements of service users.
The traditional approach to the analysis of traffic accidents has mostly involved identifying omissions in vehicles and drivers, which led to the occurrence of a traffic accident. However, more recent EU directives dealing with this area emphasize infrastructure failures that may be the real cause of the accident. This approach refers to preventive action, ie the design of such infrastructure that will, in case of failure of the driver, "forgive" the driver his mistake and prevent the occurrence of a traffic accident or reduce the consequences of a traffic accident. To achieve this, a completely new approach to the problem is needed, ie to build, reconstruct and regenerate the road infrastructure according to its real function from the aspect of traffic safety. The realization of these concepts in our area implies primarily the education of all entities that have contact with road infrastructure (designers, managers, auditors, etc.), with emphasis on the fact that savings on the material are significantly less than the savings achieved by reducing the number of accidents, with injured faces and fatalities.
The expression „Intelligent Infrastructure“ presents devices and systems which are used with intelligent transport systems and systems for managing in traffic. Intelligent Infrastructure presents purposeful organizational and informational – communicative upgrading of classical traffic systems, vehicles and transporting entities. Basic role of Intelligent Infrastructure is reflected in information gathering, elaboration and analyzing of current status, and on that bases orders issuing in order to provide simple activities flow for all traffic participants in a traffic process. Due to the complexity and the compactness of the term intelligent infrastructure it is necessary to base the division on the devices and objects of Intelligent Infrastructure. The Intelligent Infrastructure devices include: sensors, detectors and variable traffic signs, while the objects of Intelligent Infrastructure imply the toll booth, intelligent vehicles and intelligent infrastructure in the tunnel. The sensors and detectors of main technical components of Intelligent Infrastructure that are providing collection of data from „system sources“ what includes capability to collect and elaborate data’s of Intelligent Infrastructure environment. Changeable traffic signs are signs that can change their content due to the different needs, but due to the traffic flow on first place. The application of these complex assets is applicable in the entire transportation system and its application has led to greater safety and security of all traffic participants, a better traffic flow on the roads, reducing congestion and traffic jams, more efficient monitoring and control system.
Getting closer to EU standards in the field of transportation in countries of the South East Europe Transport Observatory (SEETO) region among other things is conditioned by the improvement of the transport infrastructure. One of the reasons there is less improvement in the transport infrastructure lies in the fact that EU is basing its infrastructure development plans on the long-term strategic goals, while within SEETO regions they are still insisting on the short term, five-year planning without clearly defined long-term strategic goals. Another problem is the exclusion of the existing infrastructural objects (roads and already developed modern border crossings) from the SEETO Comprehensive Network. Long-term plans of SEETO network should encompass also the existing roads as well as future infrastructural projects, which will improve the current transportation network in this region. Short-term; five-year plans within SEETO region cannot contribute to a significant inclusion of this region into the European transportation market. More advanced approach of countries in SEETO region to EU standards in the field of transport infrastructure is possible only if the EU also accepts the fact that the same principles of long-term strategic planning of transport infrastructure need to be applied within SEETO.
For the normal flow of goods in one country it is necessary that in every advanced region there is a built modern logistic center with different functions and tasks. The area of Bosnia and Herzegovina is the optimal location for organization of modern logistic and distribution center. In this area it is possible to perform all primary and secondary activities that have the function of handling goods for customers in the immediate environment and the wider gravitational zone.
Everything is already a trend of the arrival of big corporations from the West and purchase of domestic logistic companies. For the corporations to have an overview of their operation and to make timely adequate decisions, they are faced by a very big requirement: how to transfer information from remote locations using the already existing infrastructure. In order to make use of the already existing internet infrastructure, and to safely and efficiently transfer information to the corporation headquarters, the virtual private network (VPN) connections are used.
Air transport industry has gradually increased its share of global passenger and freight traffic, and this trend has accelerated in the last 40 years. For the past decade, air-freight traffic growth has outpaced air passenger traffic growth by 1-2% each year. In the past, air-freight sector offered limited services, with heavy reliance on several intermediaries and a significant dependence on air passenger operations. The sector can now be characterized as a sophisticated, innovative one, relying heavily on new electronic technologies, offering a wide range of transport and logistical products through dedicated specialist freight operators. With increasing emphasis on the globalization of trade and economic activity, air-freight growth is expected to continue to outpace air passenger traffic growth. The air-freight growth is expected to be greatest in the Asian markets (intra-Asia; North America-Asia; Europe-Asia and Australasia). The process of physical distribution of freight has become a highly sophisticated operation, with increasingly greater reliance being placed on the use of new technology to assist in the movement, storage, and tracking of consignments. But transport is just one component in this logistics chain. In this paper, air-freight sector is examined in terms of its structure, organization, its role in the supply chains, the main trends in the recent period, constraints facing the sector and the future prospects in air-freight sector. KEY WORDS: air freight organization, development, trends, forecast, logistics services
