Healthcare and supply chain management have recently been the two most active areas for RFID applications. The healthcare environment is a natural fit for generating and utilizing instance-level data for decision support. We consider a scenario from the French healthcare environment involving tracking and tracing of surgical equipment within and among hospitals and develop a knowledge-based system...
Pattern matching over event streams is well developed. However, with the increasing demand of measurement accuracy, confidence of more complex events sourced from original, continuously arriving events generated from sensor kind electronic devices is becoming more and more been concerned. Actually, some applications such as RFID-based supply chain management and monitoring in health care require data...
RFID technology provides fast data collection with precise identification of objects with unique IDs. Through processing and analyzing RFID data, some complex events can be discovered to support event monitoring and pre-warning. This technology has been applied in a wide area of applications, such as supply chain management, retail, anti-counterfeiting, security, military and health care. In this...
The integration of RFID sensors into everyday products has become a widespread solution for increasing efficiency in supply chain management. This has also led to a way of being able to monitor everyday activities in the home based on when and how these products are used, which is less intrusive than other monitoring approaches such as visual based systems. Monitoring activities in a home environment...
Radio frequency identification (RFID) tools have assumed an important role in supporting logistics and supply chain management processes. Unlike barcode systems, it is necessary to implement Business Process Reengineering (BPR) with an innovative spirit on the fundamental processes before implementing RFID to achieve greater synergy. BPR requires that there exist a fundamental framework and a proven,...
