چکیده

In Japan, a Group Home which offers home-based care service for elderly persons who suffer from dementia have been increased. Even though the small community of the home is suitable for familylike care, the short of caregivers increases the burden especially during midnight. To supplement the lack of attention, we developed floor mats embedded with RFID antenna and slippers with RFID tags. The system can help the caregivers to aware activities of the persons with dementia by specifying whether the person passed through the sheet on the corridor. It not only helps the caregivers to understand such persons by reviewing their activities but also keeps them informed about the person’s ongoing activities.

Context-aware web services for security control and privacy preservation in an RFID supply chain

Automation and optimisation of supply-chain activities are made possible by radio frequency identification (RFID) technology. RFID supply chain performance can be enhanced by integrating RFID functions into the web service paradigm. However, the use of RFID involves growing privacy and security concerns, in part because the lack of RFID tag capacity places the whole supply-chain loop at risk of...
