An Introduction to RFID in the Supply Chain

Overview The RFID revolution has arrived and it is enabling the high-resolution supply chain of the future. A staple of hardware and software standards around RFID created by the Auto-ID Center and EPCglobal, and now expanded and put into practical use by application companies such as MARC Global and RFID infrastructure companies such as OATSystems, has the potential to permanently change the supply-chain, and perhaps, commerce in general.
