The radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technology for automatic identification of items, particularly in supply chain, but it is becoming increasingly important for industrial applications. Unlike barcode technology that detects the optical signals reflected from barcode labels, RFID uses radio waves to transmit the information from an RFID tag affixed to the physical object. In contras...

The benefits of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology in the supply chain are fairly compelling. It has the potential to revolutionise the efficiency, accuracy and security of the supply chain with significant impact on overall profitability. A number of companies are actively involved in testing and adopting this technology. It is estimated that the market for RFID products and serv...

After exploring industrial and consumer applications of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and reviewing the state-of-theart and development in RFID technology, the paper put forward RFID smart parts. A currently operative smart part based manufacturing system is described which uses RFID as the key technology. The role of them in the emerging Wireless Internet Manufacturing field is highlig...

The online observation of a construction site and processes bears significant advantage to all business sector. BIM is the combination of a 3D model of the project and a project-planning program which improves the project planning model by up to 6D (Adding Time, Cost and Material Information dimensions to the model). RFID technology is an appropriate information synchronization tool between the...

291 words) Over the past decade, several industries have considered Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to improve supply chain efficiency. In Japan, the national Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI) initiated and sponsored a number of industry-wide RFID trials between 2003 and 2006. It selected the Japanese publishing industry, one of the largest publishing industries i...

This study examines the impact of RFID technology utilization on organizational agility in manufacturing firms. Data from a sample of 328 manufacturers were collected and the model was assessed following a structural equation methodology. Findings indicate that adoption of RFID technology utilization directly and positively impacts organizational agility which in turn directly and positively im...
