The concept of Smart-Homes is becoming more and more popular. It is anticipated that Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) technology will play a major role in such environments. We can find many previously proposed schemes that focus solely on: authentication between the RFID tags and readers, and user privacy protection from malicious readers. There has also been much talk of a very popular RFID application: a refrigerator/bookshelf that can scan and list out the details of its items on its display screen. Realizing such an application is not as straight forward as it seems to be, especially in securely deploying such RFID-based applications in a smart home environment. Therefore this paper describes some of the RFID-based applications that are applicable to smart home environments. We then identify their related privacy and security threats and security requirements and also propose a secure approach, where RFID-tagged consumer items, RFID-reader enabled appliances (e.g., refrigerators), and RFID-based applications would securely interact among one another. At the moment our approach is just a conceptual idea, but it sheds light on very important security issues related to RFID-based applications that are beneficial for consumers.

Most of the known RFID applications are derived from RFID technology and its functionalities not business analysis or requirements, so that companies may not obtain real competitive edges by implementing RFID application systems. Developing successful RFID applications is one of the key elements for prevailing RFID use by industries. Research objective is to propose an effective methodology for developing RFID applications based on analyzing business processes. The approach is designed to figure out both technical and business requirements related to RFID applications based on BPR (Business process reengineering) and ISP (Information strategy planning) methodologies. To verify the effectiveness of our approach, we applied the proposed approach to real field cases. As RFID technologies get flourished, the proposed approach is expected to play a meaningful role as an effective tool for developing new RFID applications.

Recently, RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) has emerged as the main technology in the logistic services. When the existing recognition technology based on bar codes brings about lots of problem due its own limits. RFID becomes the center of attention to solve them. However, RFID is not without any obstacles : companies have their own operating systems. while RFID is developed regardless of each campany's special features. RFID middleware system based on web service is expected to remove these obstacles. This paper shows how to operate the middleware based on web service and to lay in the DB the tag informations taken from reader system Middle assures that companies adopting RFID system for their logistic service are given athptabwebty to any systems whatsoever, avaweable by way of defining logistic information, tag information and reader information. For this purse, we implement as the basic web service a middleware system that turns all data into XML(eXtensatle Markupmsngunfo) of SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol), the standard data.

RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) is a wireless frequency recognition technology that can be used to recognize, trace, and Identify people, things and animals using radio frequency. Although current RFID technology can provide wide advantages in many fields, most companies do not consider widely adopting this technology yet. This paper presents RFID implementation as a technology innovation. This research selects three affecting factors of IT infrastructure, fitness of Tag, fitness of Frequency, and one moderator of the power of business partners, on RFID adoption based on innovation model, and then empirical survey is conducted among the companies using RFID technology or planing for RFID adoption to investigate the relationship of three affacting factors and one moderator factor. Reserachers can find the direction to activate RFID technology as a competitive advantage.

RFID technology of Ubiquitous core technology was used the local parts of Traceability System in past, but the various parts of u-Healthcare, Home networks, Telematics, and etc. in today on the one hand, according to be interested in the home networks technology and develope it, we are searching about how to apply RFID technology in home networks. This paper is designed and implemented the system delivered tag information to the application of home networks and controled RFID reader remotely by the bundle implemented RFID reader process methods based OSGi framework platforms.

This paper is about adult certification on Mobile RFID Service Environments coming through the combination of RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) technology, as the core technology of ubiquitous environments, and mobile telecommunication technology. To overcome the shortcoming of simple adult certification on current internet, we suggest a framework for content-based classification and propose an adult certification system using it. At first, we explain conventional methods for adult certification, and show a criteria of content-based classification for preventing an exposure of adult contents from minors. Additionally, we describe data structure and system for the proposed adult certification on mobile RFID environment, and finish it with concluding remarks.

Recently, RFID system is a main technology to realize ubiquitous computing environments. Because RFID system that is an automatic identification technology using radio frequency is a system to read and write the data of the entity. Therefore, many companies are interested in RFID system to reduce supply chain management and inventory control cost. However, for providing secure service, RFID authentication technology secure against tracking by an adversary is researched first. In this paper, we proposed security level based RFID authentication protocol providing reduce computational and communicational workload in the back-end database. The proposed protocol is secure against reply attack, spoofing attack, traffic analysis, and location privacy, since the proposed protocol based on the security of the hash function.

In this paper, we propose a secure and efficient RFID-based patient authentication protocol to not only authenticate patients' authenticity but also protect patients' personal medical informations for u-Healthcare environments. Since the proposed RFID-based patient authentication protocol provides strong security and efficiency, it can be used practically for patient authentication and personal medical information protection on the high technology medical environments such as u-Hospital and u-Healthcare.

In molds management systems using radio frequency identification (RFID), in the case where the RFID tag is lost, the RFID technology cannot be utilized to identify the location of the logistics. In order to solve this problem, a multi-sensor-based mold management system using RFID and infrared sensors is proposed in this paper. The proposed system uses RFID to identify the location of the mold and, by installing infrared sensors on the mold racks, the manager can identify the presence and location of the mold by reaffirming whether the mold exists in that location or not.
