Call for papers: RFID-Enhanced Technology Intelligence and Management

A special issue of International Journal of Radio Frequency Identification Technology and Applications

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is one of the automated identification technologies (AIT). An RFID tag is attached to or incorporated into an item or person for identification through radio waves. RFID has been used in many areas such as business and supply chain management, product and asset tracking, manufacturing streamlining, and logistics management in navy, etc. However, RFID tag cost, standards, data management, system integration, information security, and design of tags and readers are still challenges in some applications. The objective of this special issue is to publish the advances of RFID in technology intelligence and management.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
  • New theories and algorithms in RFID
  • Hardware and software of RFID
  • RFID middleware and data management
  • RFID and database
  • Network in RFID systems
  • RFID standards and standardization
  • Integration of the RFID system with other systems
  • Information security and privacy issues of RFID
  • RFID in business and supply chain management
  • RFID in government management
  • RFID in pharmaceuticals, medical devices and healthcare services
  • RFID in materials, manufacturing and products
  • RFID in libraries
  • RFID in agriculture and food industry
  • RFID in homeland security
  • RFID in disaster tracking, response and relief operations
  • RFID in postal/shipping services
Important Dates
Manuscript due date: 1 September, 2010
Notification of acceptance: 1 October, 2010
