Radio frequency identification (RFID) is an established technology and has the potential, in a variety of applications, to significantly reduce cost and improve performance. As RFID-enabled applications will fulfill similar tasks across a range of processes adapted to use the data gained from RFID tags, they can be considered as software products derived from a common infrastructure and assets that capture specific ions in the domain. This paper discusses a framework that supports the development of RFID-enabled applications based on a business process family model (BPFM), explicitly representing both commonalities and variabilities. To develop this framework, common activities are identified from RFID-enabled applications and the variabilities in the common activities are analyzed in detail using variation point concepts. Through this framework, RFID data is preprocessed, and thus, RFID-enabled applications can be developed without having to process RFID data. Sharing a common model and reusing assets to deploy recurrent services may be considered an advantage in terms of economic significance and the overall product quality afforded.

Since there are a lot of researches regarding RFID nowadays, the idea of RFID Middleware has great popular appeal to improve the efficiency of most use the data from RFID Readers. Even though, there are many RFID Middleware products and solutions in the developing processing, there are unsatisfied researches to manage RFID equipments effectively. In this paper, highly recommends a solution to support various RFID Readers from ALE-complient RFID Middleware in an efficient path of constructing Middleware Connection Information and data protocol form various RFID Readers as an ontology metadata. Therefore, not only reuses of RFID Reader Ontology, but also, by adding the ontology regarding additional RFID Reader and protocol data as a Middleware in a near future, it is able to extend to be treated easily.

RFID technology enables companies to precisely manage their inventories at the item level. Recently, due to the wide spread of RFID data-exchange standards, RFID systems are being recognized as separate information systems, each of which is consist of RFID hardwares, a middleware and data repositories, thereby RFID systems become common targets for system integration. In this paper, we proposed an effective integration framework between RFID systems and existing enterprise information systems (EIS). We also surveyed the current state of the RFID-EIS system integration practices. The proposed framework will be helpful for system developers to effectively integrate RFID systems with EIS's.

This paper deals with the middleware development for real time data processing using ubiquitous RFID(Radio Frequency Identification). This middleware system supports the real time data gathering, filtering, and collaborative operations within SCM. We expect to decrease the data processing cost and to upgrade the status of RTE(Real Time Enterprise) and competitive power of company.

RFID has substituted for a Bar Code to conduct real time data collection and data process in various fields including logistics, electronic, medical treatment, car, textile, steel industry at the business level. Although implementation and use of RFID has been facilitated constantly, the majority of businesses hesitate to implement RFID system. Hence in this study, we conducted a performance evaluation through quantitative/qualitative analysis on case studies in various industries. This study results could be utilized as basic data for RFID system diffusion, and it will primarily contribute to spread of RFID system implementation.

Mobile Telemedicine uses common technologies that provide a conduit for information exchange between physicians nurses and patients. In addition to patient records, medical professionals will obtain vital signs and other reference data through Ubiquitous Sensor networks(USN). In this paper about a design and implementation of RFID reader platform that received RFID tag information from patients tags, transmit the data to SBC(Single board computer) based on Intel PXA255 ARM CPU and SBC transmit the data to MySQL server in hospital using by Wireless Internet. his system that based on Embedded Linux is composed of RFID module, ARM processor, RS-232 interface, and Wireless LAN. This paper also provides a brief overview and concept of RFID reader, and proposes the design and implementations of the RFID reader platform used QT and MySQL based on Embedded Linux.

In this paper, we present a RFID system by using a wireless sensor network. The proposed system is installed in glove for activity monitoring. The RFID reader, to send data by using sensor network platform and RFID tag are small size, the shape of quadrangle, and operate in the frequency of 13.56 MHz. The sensor node can read RFID tags on the various objects used in daily living such as furniture, medicines, and kitchenwares. The sensor node reads the data of RFID tags, it transmits wireless packets to the sink node. The sink node sends the received packet immediately to a server system. The data from each RFID system is collected into a database, and then the data are processed to visualize the measurement of daily living activities of users. We provide a web-based monitoring system, and can see the number of RFID tag readings per day as bar charts. The result of experiments demonstrates that the way we propose can help to check the situation of life for people who live alone.

Many researchers strive to research on ways on how to improve the performance of RFID system and many papers were written to solve one of the major drawbacks of potent technology related with data management. As RFID system captures billions of data, problems arising from dirty data and large volume of data causes uproar in the RFID community those researchers are finding ways on how to address this issue. Especially, effective data management is important to manage large volume of data. Data reduction techniques in attempts to address the issues on data are also presented in this paper. This paper introduces readers to a new data reduction algorithm that might be an alternative to reduce data in RFID Systems. A process on how to extract data from the reduced database is also presented. Performance study is conducted to analyze the new data reduction algorithm. Our performance analysis shows the utility and feasibility of our categorization reduction algorithms.

In this paper, we have developed RFID systems with integrated tag location data for efficient logistics information systems. These are consist of RFID readers with GPS module and RFID networks to service tag location data. The developed RFID readers can get location informations Of the tags, transfer them high speed by TCP/IP protocols, and operate as web servers. And we presented a simple service network system based on EPC network to service both location and tag data. The proposed system can be applicable to tracebility or finding locations of the products.

The purpose of this paper is developing a PML server which is capable of saving and managing effectively the information of vehicles using RFID technology in the logistical and distributive environment. The PML server logs and manages the real-time static and dynamic information about the vehicles in EPC code format which is represented by XML schema and transmitted by the RFID reader to the server. It receives information from SAVANT the RFID middleware and transmits the data to the traffic information management application The main system we developed consists of the EPC data registry, query processor, data converter, vehicle product and instance data storage, system management tool and application API parts.
