Radio-frequency identification (RFID) blind spots are the regions within the maximum operating range of the RFID system where the RFID reader fails to read the RFID tag. The existence of blind spots have troubled supply chain management and RFID system engineers because any failed or omitted reading of RFID tag would slow down the inventory tracking process. This paper studies the potential loc...

Technology adoption in supply chain management may create major breakthrough achievements. This paper aims at exploring different aspects of technology adoption in supply chain management (SCM) through six thinking strategies of decision makers at different stages in different sectors viz. FMCG, electrical, heavy engineering, electronics and pharmaceutical & chemicals) to recognize operations a...

Radio frequency identification (RFID) devices have matured to the point where they are now expanding beyond the retail supply chain and public transit fare management systems. RFID technology provides a low power and economical method to link remote sensors to larger control systems. In these cases, the RFID protocols provide the communication link between the sensor and larger control system. ...

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is emerging as the hottest information tracing technology in supply chain management with its inherent ability to reveal item-level product information. Although the beneficial aspects for retailers have been studied in greater detail, RFID tags can be beneficially utilized in a manufacturing context. Unlike a majority of case study-based literature in this...

Certain businesses call for a high level of traceability to track high value products. This case study of City Healthcare,1 New Zealand, focuses on the complex management issues related to the initial decisions to use radio frequency identification (RFID) technology on such a product, instead of a barcode. RFID devices are effectively tiny memory storage devices that can be read and sometimes w...

RFID is a radio frequency identification technology using radio waves to transfer the data between a reader and a tag. RFID allows the sensor to read from a distance without sight contact, a unique code associated with tags. Data stored on a tag is transferred through radio frequency linked by RFID tagging which is a form of automatic identification and data capture technology. RFID is used in ...

This study analyzed the traceability system's effect on Indonesia's food cold chain performance during Covid-19 pandemic and described needs of consumers in Indonesia regarding system. Five latent variables were used to form research models, including adoption electronic data interchange (EDI), radio frequency identification (RFID), blockchain, system, performance. uses a quantitative approach ...

Supply chain risks come in a variety of forms: disruptions to material flows, product quality problems, information systems breakdowns, and economic instability (Chopra & Sodhi, 2004; Zsidisin et al., 2000). The recent literature in supply chain management recognizes the importance of managing such risks in the age of global supply chains. Various researchers have discussed firms’ increasing ex...

Introduction The purpose of this review is to explore how supply chain management, specifically within the NHS, can be improved through the use of emerging information and communications technologies (ICT). There are a range of technologies, such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and barcodes, available to logistics providers which expedite the processing of inventory at key nodes along ...

Radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies have many advantages in applications such as object tracking and monitoring, ticketing, supply-chain management, contactless payment systems. However, the RFID system may bring about various security and privacy problems. In this paper we present our security analysis of the LAK protocol and the CWH protocol. First, we show that the LAK protoco...
