Design and Implementation of a Ubiquitous Agricultural Supply Chain Management System

摘要

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is expected to become pervasive and ubiquitous, as it can be embedded into everyday items as smart labels. The RFID based supply chain management yields convenience, efficiency and productivity gains. With the emergence of RFID based tags, it is now practicable to automatically collect information pertaining to any object's place, time, transaction, etc. Based on the pervasive deployment of RFID tags, we develop a new RFID application, which is developed to serve farmers' products in aggregation center through the supply chain. The objective of this research is to de-scribe how the RFID application software can be applied and how we can de-sign the RFID SCM application software. This RFID application provides an effective way to manage all the relevant information through the whole supply chain by writing/reading data to/from tag and updating the database automatically or manually.
