Abstract
In RFID system, Middleware collects and filters streaming data gathered continuously from readers to process applications requests. The enormous amount of data makes middleware in highly overloaded. Hence, we propose reader level filtering in order to reduce overall middleware load. In this paper, we consider reader filtering capability and define query plan to minimize number of queries for processing into middleware and reader level. We design and implement middleware system based on proposed query plan. We perform several experiments on implemented system. Our experiments show that the proposed query plan considerably improves the performance of middleware by diminishing processing time and network traffic between reader and middleware.
