초록

본 논문 에서는 기존의 대표적인 RFID 미들웨어 표준인 RFID 응용 인터페이스 표준규격1)으로 적용가능한 정책 기반의 RFID 데이터 관리 이벤트 정의 언어를 제안한다. 즉, RFID 응용인터페이스는 RFID 미들웨어의 핵심 구성요소인 데이터관리 기능, 장치관리 기능, 장치인터페이스 기능, 정보보호관리 기능을 응용 프로그램에게 제공하기 위한 표준인터페이스이며, 본 논문에서 제안하는 언어는 그 중 RFID 미들웨어의 데이터관리 기능, 즉 이벤트관리 기능을 지원하기 위한 추상화된 인터페이스를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다. 특히, 이벤트 제약조건을 정의하기 위한 정책의 개념은 RF 리더들로부터 읽혀지는 대용량의 태그데이터를 정제 또는 여과시키기 위한 이벤트 제약조건들을 정의하는 수단으로서 RFID 미들웨어의 기능에 대한 기술적 전문지식이 부족한 응용프로그램 개발자들이 자신의 응용영역을 쉽게 표현할 수 있을 뿐 만 아니라 고수준의 추상화된 인터페이스를 제공할 수 있는 매우 효과적인 수단이라고 할 수 있다. 결과적으로, 본 논문에서는 RFID 응용인터페이스의 상세표준규격으로 제정 될 수 있는 일명 rXPDL, XML기반의 RFID 데이터 관리 이벤트 정책 정의 언어 (rXPDL: XML-based RFID Data Management Event Policy Definition Language)를 정의하며, 이는 곧 정책기반 RFID 데이터 관리 응용인터페이스 정의 언어로서 국내외 표준 규격의 기반이 될 것으로 기대한다. 또한, rXPDL의 상세표준규격들은 유비쿼터스센서네트워크 미들웨어의 데이터 관리를 위한 표준규격으로서의 확장을 기대할 수도 있다.

In this paper, we propose a policy-driven RFID data management event definition language, which is possibly applicable as a partial standard for SSI (Software System Infrastructure) Part 4 (Application Interface, 24791-4) defined by ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 31/WG 4 (RFID for Item Management). The SSI's RFID application interface part is originally defined for providing a unified interface of the RFID middleware functionality―data management, device management, device interface and security functions. However, the current specifications are too circumstantial to be understood by the application developers who used to lack the professional and technological backgrounds of the RFID middleware functionality. As an impeccable solution, we use the concept of event-constraint policy that is not only representing semantic contents of RFID domains but also providing transparencies with higher level abstractions to RFID applications, and that is able to provide a means of specifying event-constraints for filtering a huge number of raw data caught from the associated RF readers. Conclusively, we try to embody the proposed concept by newly defining an XML-based RFID event policy definition language, which is abbreviated to rXPDL. Additionally, we expect that the specification of rXPDL proposed in the paper becomes a technological basis for the domestic as well as the international standards that are able to be extensively applied to RFID and ubiquitous sensor networks.
