Abstract - The concept of knowledge-based economy (KBE) in this article constitutes the basis for the undertaken considerations regarding the implementation of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology in the development process of high-tech clusters. It has been indicated in the article that this type of economy is characterised by quick development, particularly, of these disciplines which are related to information processing and science development, mainly the high-tech industry, including the technologies and services of an information society. It has been emphasised that in these market conditions the key sources of competitive advantage of business entities comprise, inter alia, the efficiency of knowledge management as well as various knowledge-intensive undertakings, which create newer and newer value for key stakeholders. The main subject of this paper is to analyse the development and application of RFID within the high-tech cluster. Firstly, the paper aims to present a literature review on the strategic importance of RFID technology for firms located in high-tech clusters through tracing a broad range of literature. Secondly, it constitutes an attempt to characterise the factors determining the decision to implement this technology, by focusing on the research results.

Knowledge Based Economy

It is now entering the knowledge-based economic era globally. In the new era, the real dominant resources and decisive production factors are not capital, land, or labor, but knowledge. In such an era, knowledge workers play critical roles in the business activity. Employees with knowledge would become the human capital of a company. High-tech industry has got in the giant competition era. Under the global competition and the constant innovation of knowledge-based economy, it becomes a worth discussing issue for high-tech businesses maintaining or enhancing the firm competitiveness. Aiming at high-tech industry, the supervisors and employees of high-tech businesses in Shanghai are distributed 420 copies of questionnaire. Total 322 valid copies are retrieved, with the retrieval rate 77%. The research results show significantly positive effects of 1.human capital on organizational innovation, 2.organizational innovation on organizational performance, and 3.human capital on organizational performance. According to the results, suggestions are proposed, expecting to help high-tech businesses, when encountering the challenge in the industrial environment, create more performance and benefits to achieve the sustained-yield management.

The aim of the paper is to analyse and evaluate the growth of entrepreneurship in the know-ledge-based economy in the Poznań metropolitan area over the recent years (1999–-2006)– a contribution to the research into the development and transformation of the economy underthe influence of science. The spatial range of the analysis makes it possible to examine therelations under study between the metropolitan core and the surrounding area. For the purposes of the present research, the term entrepreneurship is understood as thetaking of measures intended to create jobs and stimulate economic activity. It is assumed thathigh-tech branches play an important role in job creation. The analysis of the KBE sector embraces high-tech manufacturing sections and the broadercategory of knowledge-intensive services, including high-tech services. The main body of the paper is preceded by interpretations of the essence of a knowledge–based economy, an operational-statistical approach to it, and a general assessment of the deve-lopment of entrepreneurship in the Poznań metropolitan area.

In the new knowledge-based economy, the ability of both firms and regions to adapt to the changes in their external environment and to remain competitive is closely related to their capacity to innovate and continuously renew the existing structures and knowledge bases. With respect to this, dense concentrations of knowledge-intensive industries and related activities are usually considered to be propitious environments from which new innovations can emerge. In such environments, the ability to attract talented, highly skilled labor is crucial for the success of regions. Employees who possess and provide know-how and creativity play a leading role in knowledge-intensive production and innovation systems. For Florida (2002a), creativity and know-how are internalized in the creative class. In this paper, Florida's creative class thesis is applied to the context of the Nordic countries. The importance of location in attracting creative class members was studied. The empirical study also aimed at identifying the role of the creative class in supporting the birth of new high-tech firms in the Nordic countries. In addition, the relationship between high-tech intensity and the creative class is described. Our analysis indicates that the link between the creative class and high technology is strong with the share of high-tech employees, concentrations of high-tech industry, and the formation of new high-tech firms.

Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) has gained great popularity with an aim to measure vital signs and gain patient related information in clinics. RPM can be achieved with noninvasive digital technology without hindering a patient’s daily activities and can enhance the efficiency of healthcare delivery in acute clinical settings. In this study, an RPM system was built using radio frequency identification (RFID) technology for early detection of suicidal behaviour in a hospital-based mental health facility. A range of machine learning models such as Linear Regression, Decision Tree, Random Forest, and XGBoost were investigated to help determine the optimum fixed positions of RFID reader–antennas in a simulated hospital ward. Empirical experiments showed that Decision Tree had the best performance compared to Random Forest and XGBoost models. An Ensemble Learning model was also developed, took advantage of these machine learning models based on their individual performance. The research set a path to analyse dynamic moving RFID tags and builds an RPM system to help retrieve patient vital signs such as heart rate, pulse rate, respiration rate and subtle motions to make this research state-of-the-art in terms of managing acute suicidal and self-harm behaviour in a mental health ward.

The paper focuses on the environmental burden created by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags in the Slovak Republic (SR). In order to determine the burden there, a model example was created to calculate electronic waste produced by households in the SR by placing RFID tags into municipal waste. The paper presents a legislative regulatory approach towards the environmental impacts from using RFID tags in the SR, as well as an analysis of the environmental burden of using RFID tags throughout the world. The core of the paper is focused on the research conducted in order to calculate the environmental burden of a model household in the SR, where the number of used RFID tags per year was observed; then, the volume of e-waste produced by households of the Slovak Republic per year was determined. In the conclusion, we provide the results of the research presented and discuss including our own proposal for solving the problems connected with the environmental burden of RFID technology.
