We study the RFID network system in a construction site, and study the connection method between the RFID network system and the integrated information system of construction material. Moreover, we developed a prototype of the construction site RFID server for the management of construction materials and performed the pilot application in a construction site. Through the pilot application, it was known that the proposed RFID network system can be more usefully applied in the construction sites. The results of the pilot application show that the RFID network system is faster, more accurate, and more reliable than the existing system of information management and achieves improvement in construction productivity.

These days RFID application has been developed rapidly. It has been applied to many business areas such as logistics and supply chains. The Electronic Product Code (EPC) Network Architecture, an open global standard, is proposed by EPCglobal for developing RFID enabled systems. People who want to obtain the product information which are master information and event information have to apply with EPC Network Architecture. However, EPCIS which has master information and event information has to be accessed base on each EPC. Therefore, there is lots of duplicate accessing to EPCIS because RFID application has to access the same EPCIS over again which makes all performance down in EPC Network. This paper proposes how to reduce access times to EPCIS using EPC grouping based on EPCIS address. We build EPC Network environment to experiment about performance of RFID application system and we prove the improvement of EPC Network. Our result shows the reducing the EPCIS communication time by maximum 99 percentages.

An RFID application needs to collect product's information scattered over the RFID network efficiently according to the globalization of RFID applied enterprises. To be informed of the stock status of products promptly in the supply chain network, especially, it is necessary to support queries that retrieve statistical information of tagged products. Since existing RFID network does not provide these kinds of queries, however, an application should request a query to several RFID middleware systems and analyze collected data directly. This process makes an application do a heavy computation for retrieving statistical information. To solve this problem, we define a new Distributed Continuous Query that finds information of tagged products from the global RFID network and provides statistical information to RFID applications. We also propose a Distributed Continuous Query System to process the distributed continuous query efficiently. To find out the movement of products via multiple RFID systems in real time, our proposed system uses Pedigree which represents trade information of items. Our system can also reduce the cost of query processing for removing duplicated data from multiple middleware systems by using Pedigree.

Irrigation facilities are spread over demand area in a low density and exposed in the field requiring efficient operation and maintenance. Thus, it could be more efficient to manage an irrigation system when it is with wireless sensor network (WSN) using RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) application. A WSN, a kind of ubiquitous sensor network composed of wireless network, RFID and database management system was developed for agricultural water management in terms of operational status and maintenance requirements. Identification code for RFID tag was designed and an application for RFID reader was developed for field data collection, and a database management system was constructed for managing irrigation facility attributes. The system was installed in I-dong irrigation districts in Gyounggi-province, Korea and the operated results showed the applicability of the WSN for agricultural water management.

Recently, there have been several researches on automatic object identification and distributed computing technology to realize a ubiquitous computing environment. Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) technology has been applied to many business areas to simplify complex processes and gain important benefits. To derive real benefits from RFID, the system must rapidly implement functions to process a large quantity of event data generated by the RFID operations and should be configured dynamically for changing businesses. Consequently, developers are forced to implement systems to derive meaningful high-level events from simple RFID events and bind them to various business processes. Although applications could directly consume and act on RFID events, extracting the business rules from the business logic leads to better decoupling of the system, which consequentially increases maintainability. In this paper, we describe an RFID business aware framework for business processes in the Electronic Product Code (EPC) Network. This framework is proposed for developing business applications using business services. The term "business services" refers to generated events that can be used in business applications without additional data collection and processing. The framework provides business rules related to data collection, processing, and management, and supports the rapid development and easy maintenance of business applications based on business services.

The distribution of tags is an important factor that affects the performance of radio-frequency identification (RFID). To study RFID performance, it is necessary to obtain RFID tags' coordinates. However, the positioning method of RFID technology has large errors, and is easily affected by the environment. Therefore, a new method using optical measurement is proposed to achieve RFID performance analysis. First, due to the possibility of blurring during image acquisition, the paper derives a new image prior to removing blurring. A nonlocal means-based method for image deconvolution is proposed. Experimental results show that the PSNR and SSIM indicators of our algorithm are better than those of a learning deep convolutional neural network and fast total variation. Second, an RFID dynamic testing system based on photoelectric sensing technology is designed. The reading distance of RFID and the three-dimensional coordinates of the tags are obtained. Finally, deep learning is used to model the RFID reading distance and tag distribution. The error is 3.02%, which is better than other algorithms such as a particle-swarm optimization back-propagation neural network, an extreme learning machine, and a deep neural network. The paper proposes the use of optical methods to measure and collect RFID data, and to analyze and predict RFID performance. This provides a new method for testing RFID performance.

현재 RFID 네트워크의 구조적 기준이 되는 EPC 네트워크는 HTTP/SOAP 통신 프로토콜과 HTML/XML을 이용하여 서비스를 제공한다. 반면 모바일 RFID 네트워크에서는 휴대 단말기의 특성에 따라 WAP방식 및 HTTP방식으로 서비스가 제공되고 있지만 단말기의 제약으로 인해 다양한 서비스 이용이 불가능 하다. 이와 같은 차이점으로 인해, 같은 RFID 네트워크 임에도 달구하고 논리적으로 두 개의 네트워크로 구분되며 서비스의 상호연동이 불가능 하다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 EPC 네트워크 구성을 따르며 모바일 RFID 네트워크의 구조변경없이 두 네트워크 간의 서비스 연동을 위한 구성 요소인 Application Server(AS)와 Mobile RFID Application Level Gateway(mRFID-ALG)를 제시한다.
