Real-time traceability and intelligent product management in the supply chain

Summarization: In this paper we present an architecture that provides enterprises with the opportunity to apply a low cost traceability system which allows for the complete transparency of products in the supply chain. The proposed traceability system uses the RSS 2.0 format, while a product classification ontology is developed in order to enable intelligent product management. The above technologies are incorporated into an RFID architecture. The deployment of RFID technology in the supply chain is expected to increase significantly the amount of product data, raising the need of adoption of an effective ontology-based model for intelligent product information management.Παρουσιάστηκε στο: 3rd International Workshop on RFID Technology - Concepts, Applications, Challenge
