EDS and Automatic Identification Using Radio Frequency Technology

Overview Automatic identification using radio frequency technology (AutoID RFID) for collaborative supply chain applications is still developing in terms of technology, standards and market adoption. Over the coming years, AutoID RFID has the potential to yield waves of innovation in IT. This potential has been the subject of much speculation and hype - "the networked physical world," "the Internet of things," "bigger than Y2K." Regardless of the ultimate end-game, RFID will significantly affect most supply chains in the coming years and provide a technology platform that may well lead to truly ubiquitous computing.
