according to the vital role of pharmaceutical industry in health care system, pharmaceutical supply chain security, standard production and distribution of the pharmaceutical products are of great importance for pharmaceutical companies. therefore, applying technology, especially radio frequency identification (rfid), is essential to achieve these goals. moreover, due to the importance of secur...

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is a disruptive technology that transmits information like barcodes but does not need “line of sight” contact to function. These systems allow managers to better monitor the supply chain by transmitting data in real time. Faster, more accurate information helps managers to make better decisions. Companies like Procter and Gamble have reduced inve...

Radio Frequency Identification is a technology where data is transmitted via radio waves on the electromagnetic spectrum. An RFID system consists of a radio frequency transceiver which both transmits and receives signals, and a miniature transponder in the form of an RFID “tag” that houses an antenna for receiving signals and a tiny chip containing the RF circuitry and the information to be tra...

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a very encouraging and fast-growing area that brings together the benefits of wireless systems, sensor networks, actuators, etc.A wide range of IoT applications have been targeted and several aspects of this field have been identified to address specific issues, as well as technologies and standards developed in various domains such as in radio frequency id...

Abstract Purpose of this paper: This paper presents an analysis toward understanding the business value components that a health care organization can drive by adopting RFID technology into its system. This researcher proposes a framework for evaluating the business value of RFID technology. To do so, emphasis is put on delivering business value through refining business processes and expandin...

A radio frequency identification (RFID) system is a special kind of sensor network to identify an object or a person using radio frequency transmission. A typical RFID system includes transponders (tags) and interrogators (readers): tags are attached to objects/persons, and readers communicate with the tags in their transmission ranges via radio signals. RFID systems have been gaining more and ...

Speaker: Professor Guang Gong Abstract: Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technology for the automated identification of physical entities using radio frequency transmissions. In the past ten years, RFID systems have gained popularity in many applications, such as supply chain management, library systems, e-passports, contactless cards, identification systems, and human implantation. R...

Cancers are significant contributors to the mortality and health care expenditures. Cancer can be reduced and monitored by new information technology. Radio frequency identification or RFID is a wireless identification technology. The use of this technology can be employed for identifying and tracking clinical staff, patients, supplies, medications and equipments. RFID can trace and manage chem...

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an automatic identification (Auto-ID) technology which allows remote interrogation of ID data on RFID tags using radio frequency (RF) as a means of wireless communication between tagged objects and RFID readers. This paper studies whether so called ”networked RFID” systems can meet the timing constraints set by real-time industrial control applications. ...
