Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is one of the latest product tracking technologies being utilized by retailers. Operations management improvements were among the first recognized applications of this technology earlier in the century. RFID applications in managing retail operations, such as inventory management and control, lead to significant benefits. However, RFID applications are not limited to operations management and go beyond the operations side to offer improvements in other areas in retail such as marketing and managing customers’ shopping experiences. In this research, we review the applications of RFID technology in retail since its introduction and how those applications have evolved over the last two decades to help retailers provide omnichannel services to their customers in the current market. We will demonstrate what strategic and tactical factors have helped retailers implement this technology and what factors have slowed down the process of adoption. We will also report on the latest status of the utilization of RFID in the retail sector.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) system is an automatic data capturing system that relies on remotely retrieving data stored on tags using devices called readers. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and a team of contractors, university researchers and technology vendors collaborated to investigate the reliability of RFID systems for automated crew-free inventory control aboard the ISS. In this manuscript we detail the decade long research accomplishments and the maturity of this RFID technology that is being currently used in Space for inventory management.

In order to solve the practical issues that the management of container inventory is difficult, time-consuming and overuse of manpower in manufacturing enterprises.A method is presented for the material container inventory management, that is, through radio frequency identification technology to achieve positioning and quantity of material containers. Then, the traditional manual inventory becomes automatic inventory which occurs at each container’s transfer process. The material container inventory management based on RFID is designed in the paper through the introduction of the applied RFID technology, architecture system design, hardware selection and software design. At last the practicability and superiority of the system is tested by run the system in a factory.

The article considers ways to use the technology of radio frequency identification of data in retail companies. The author studies the traditional directions of using RFID technology, such as identification of data on the goods carried out at its acceptance, tracking the movement of goods along the supply chain, accounting of commodity units when loading into the vehicle and when picking the order, inventory of the goods. The paper also considers promising, but at the moment little common areas of application of technology in retail: personal digital assistants for managing the placement of goods on the shelves of the store, “smart fitting,” systems for automatic payment of goods and some others. Today, RFID technology can also be used for marketing research, to prevent theft in stores, to organize an improved customer service, to create inventory management systems. The author highlights the advantages received by retailers when applying RFID technology, and the barriers that prevent its active implementation.

Here is presented a survey of the most common cattle identification methods comparing advantages, disadvantages and costs in the utilization of a new Identification model that uses tags with Radio Frequency Identification Devices (RFID). From there, a RFID system of evaluation is proposed for management automated. When the herd pass through a monitored portal, it can be obtained the immediate identification of each animal. Three tests were performed to verify the better position of the RFID reader in order to determine a setting for it and verify that the settings selected for the assembly of the system remains adequate. The use of this system gives the producer an electronic identification,  facilitating the management, identification and control of the herd.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a rapidly evolving technology for automatic identification and data capture of products. One of the barriers to the adoption of RFID by organizations is difficulty in assessing the potential return on investment (ROI). Much of the research and analyses to date of ROI in implementing RFID technology have focused on the benefits to the retailer. There is a lack of a good understanding of the impact of RFID at upper echelons of the supply chain. In this paper, we present a framework and models for assessing the value of RFID implementation by tier-one suppliers to major retailers. We also discuss our real-life application of this framework to one of Wal-Mart’s top 100 suppliers

Vehicular traffic can hardly escape the list of critical problems in the world that demand to be resolved at the earliest. Attempting to eradicate the factors that led to this menace is a process too long for the current critical situation to wait for and stay unattended. Considering the serious consequences that ensue as a result of traffic jams, some solution that can bring an expeditious remedy needs to be found in order to handle the current situation. And this paper is aimed at proposing one such solution which can considerably ameliorate the degree of the mayhem that is prevailing, using Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) technology.
