Challenges for Pervasive RFID-Based Infrastructures

Abstract

The success of RFID in supply chain management is leading many to consider more personal and pervasive deployments of this technology. Unlike industrial settings, however, deployments that involve humans raise new and critical problems related to privacy, security, uncertainty, and a more diverse and evolving set of applications.At the University of Washington, we are deploying a building-wide RFID-based infrastructure with hundreds of antennas and thousands of tags. Our goal is to uncover the issues of pervasive RFID deployments and devise techniques for addressing these issues before such deployments become common place.In this paper, we present the challenges encountered and lessons learned during a smaller-scale pilot deployment of the system. We show some preliminary results and, for each challenge, discuss how we addressed it or how we are planning on addressing it.

Yereraltı Maden İşçilerini Gerçek Zamanlı Takip Etmek İçin RFID Teknolojisine Dayalı Özgün Bir Entegrasyon Metodolojisi

“…RFID üzerinde çok sayıda çalışma ve ekipman olmasına rağmen, deneysel bir ortam yaratmak ve gelişmiş bir sistemi test etmek kolay değildir [26]. Seçilen metodolojinin, donanımların, yazılımların, programlama dillerinin tamamının entegre bir şekilde çalışabildiğini ispatlamak amacıyla Çankırı Tuz madeni testler ve geliştirmeler için tercih edildi.…”

RFID in textile and clothing manufacturing: technology and challenges

“…These lacunas are high investment, lack of security and privacy, and some related to the technology of RFID (Wu et al 2006;Jones et al 2005;Welbourne et al 2007). …”

“…Various research have been done on the technology including tags, antennae and readers of RFID Ukkonen et al 2012;Kellomäki et al 2012;Occhiuzzi et al 2010;Gimpel et al 2004); communications infrastructure (Srivastava 2010;Zuo 2010;Welbourne et al 2007); logistics (Wang and Wang 2009;Kapoor et al 2009);security (Fishkin et al 2005;Simson et al 2005;Thiesse 2007;Yeo and Kim 2005;Knospe and Pohl 2004); and standardization (Moon and Ngai 2008;Bolic et al 2010).…”
