The essence of this research is to manage staff files virtually; tags were created like barcode to wirelessly manage, trace and detect each staff files with their location per time. It will offer intelligent applications with multiple functions cutting across embedded system, pervasive computing and networking which will avail the management of the university 24hours in a week monitoring, surveillance and detection services for staffers records whenever need arises. To achieve these objectives for Yobe State University, current technology of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) was adopted including frequency ranges and standards with privacy and security catered for

Lecturer attendance record is required by the university to know the presence of lecturers in teaching in class. In general condition, lecturer attendance is recorded on the attendance sheet, or input to web application accessed on a class computer. However, there are some problems in its implementation so that at the end, lecturer presence is carried out using a manual form where the academic staff needs to re-enter the lecturer attendance data into the applications. Based on the above, the authors designed and developed a lecturer attendance information system to record lecturers' attendance using radio frequency identification technology by implementing a near field communication card (NFC Card). The device used to record and read presence data during lectures, by tapping an Mi-fare NFC card to an NFC reader / writer device. The flow of this research method begins with a literature study of NFC card, observe the flow of lecture attendance process and data recorded into lecturer attendance sheet, analyzing the database design, the system design which has compatible with NFC reader and writer devices, designed system interface and continue to develop system. The result is system consists of master data, system attendance, verification and reporting module. The results show that NFC card implementation is more practical for lecturers in conducting lecture attendance and NFC card could be tapped out into an NFC device at a maximum distance up to 7 cm with the reading angle relative to NFC reader/writer with range 00 until 300 can read NFC Card.

Australian hospitals had begun exploring Radio Frequency Identification, a wireless automatic identification and data capture technology for improving the quality of their services towards the end of 2000s. After many an unsuccessful pilots, a breakthrough for large hospitals came in 2010, with a key learning rendered by a large regional hospital that not only experimented with the technology, but also have made it all pervasive in their operations. In this chapter, we present the case study, through an innovation translation perspective, focusing on the socio-technical factors captured through elements of Actor-Network Theory.

In the event of an accident or emergency, a victim’s medical information such as blood type, prescribed drugs, and other pertinent medical history is critical to Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) so that the correct treatment can be provided to the victim as quickly as possible. Victims of car accidents, heart attacks, etc., are not always able to answer simple but crucial medical questions. Treatment time is critical in an emergency situation and the EMT must quickly obtain correct medical information to provide treatment until the victim is stabilized or admitted to the hospital. With an unconscious patient, the EMT must perform a number of tests to obtain these details. A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag encoded with this information could provide this information quickly and correctly, while saving the time and expense of the tests to answer these questions. The ability of the RFID tag to communicate through objects can minimize the movement of the victim to obtain the necessary information. This paper presents a standardized format for encoding (storing) this information in the RFID tag for use in the United States. The use of data compression techniques are explored to maximize the amount of information able to be stored in the RFID tag. Privacy and security issues with this application are discussed and a potential solution is presented.
