“…In Jordan, only few studies explored such technology based on its rare use by public sector (i.e. the previous example of Abu-Shanab & Yamin, 2014). One of WAJ (Water Authority of Jordan) goals from using tracking systems was reducing the fuel consumption based on tracking drivers and gaining their commitment to their scheduled tasks.…”

This study investigated the utility of the Internet of Things in the public sector and the factors influencing the satisfaction of its users. The study followed two directions, the first investigated managers’ perceptions and their satisfaction with using sensors for tracking vehicles. The second direction investigated drivers’ satisfaction with the system used. Results collected from 20 interviews conducted with managers revealed that cost reduction and more control over drivers’ behaviors are the contributions expected from the system. They reported the dissatisfaction of drivers based on violation of their privacy, inequity of implementation, and the low awareness of its utility. Surveys collected from drivers supported the role of trust and privacy, but failed to support the role of usefulness. The qualitative and quantitative nature of this research revealed valuable insights and concluded to important recommendations and future work.

This chapter explains the components of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID); the aspects of RFID; the barriers to RFID utilization; the privacy and security issues of RFID; the RFID applications in supply chain management; the RFID applications in the health care industry; the RFID applications in modern business; the Near Field Communication (NFC) in mobile devices; the overview of Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET); the security concern of MANET; and the advanced issues of MANET in the digital age. RFID and MANET become the growing components of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) applications and can be effectively utilized in global operations. The chapter argues that RFID and MANET have the potential to increase the efficiency of operations in various industries, improve asset visibility and traceability, decrease reliance on manual processes, reduce operation costs, and provide useful data for business analytics.

Nowadays, RFID technology is widely being used in libraries across the world. This study is in line with global literature pertaining to the implementation of RFID technology in libraries and intends to explore and examine the perceptions of employees from two libraries in Qatar. Data was collected from both staff and managers using two separate surveys. The perceptions of both sets of employees were analyzed and compared to highlight the differences in benefits, drawbacks, and issues concerning the implementation of RFID in contrast to barcode. ‘Shelf management of resources,' ‘perceived RFID contributions,' and ‘workplace efficiency' were the top 3 rated dimensions pertaining to the use of RFID. Additionally, ‘increased customer satisfaction' was rated the highest among the reasons as to why RFID is adopted in libraries and the fact that all negative decision determinants were moderately perceived when compared to the positive ones indicates the overall positive attitude of managers in these libraries towards RFID technology. Further conclusions and future work are proposed at the end of the study.
