Information technology advancements integrated with the e-commerce supply chain allow participants in the business process to effectively work with large volumes of data and control transactions. To improve the profitability and competitiveness of e-commerce companies, a blockchain solution was incorporated into the global B2B (Business-to-Business) supply chain. This technology simplified the transaction process by providing all participants in the sustainable B2B buying process with the same data about the trade. Overall, the use of blockchain improved the efficiency of logistics and digital documentation which reached 74% and 75%, respectively. The main advantage of using blockchain is that it creates a decentralized database that is secure. In addition, it increases the speed of payment and the reliability and transparency of data transfer. Further research may focus on the use of blockchain in green logistics to improve environmental sustainability in the e-commerce supply chain.

Knowledge is an important resource providing competitive strategies for the firms. Managing knowledge through supply chain will bring more benefits to the businesses. Various factors during the process of knowledge flowing can cause different time delay. In order to analyze the problem of time delay of knowledge flow in supply chain, the knowledge flow model in supply chain based on stochastic Petri net is proposed and corresponding isomorphic Markov chain is given. The time performance and the efficiency of knowledge flow Petri net model are discussed. The proposed method can help the firm with the knowledge flow management and reorganization
