from shopping centers has a Universal Product Code (UPC) printed on it. RFID tags are improved version of the UPC bar code as they have read and write capabilities, indicating that they could be read by RFID scanners and also store information. Each product within the shopping center will be labeled with a unique Electronic Product Code (EPC) that will take the place of UPC bar code. Each label could contain 96 bits of information, including names of products, the manufacturers and a 40 bit serial

Siemens established a dedicated department inside its mobile phone business unit to develop and launch a GSM data module called “M1” for M2M applications. 2001 Invention of The Electronic Product Code (EPC): A Naming Scheme for Physical Objects, which uniquely identifies objects and facilitates tracking throughout the product life cycle. 2005 Led by Massimo Banzi, a team of students and faculty members at the Interaction Design Institute Ivrea in Ivrea, Italy developed the Arduino, a single-board microcontroller

Identification as the name suggests uses Radio frequency for identification of a particular object. It is similar to a bar-code, scans to retrieve a particular and unique information for identification. It consists of a chip, capable of carrying a maximum of 2000 bytes of data and an antenna uses electronic devices (small in size). The major feature of RFID above other electronic identification mechanisms is that the RFID device need not be precisely positioned wrt the scanner. RFID technology has recently

Wal-mart, the wholesale retail monopoly, focused on developing an RFID-based electronic product code, or EPC. The electronic code would allow businesses to track shipments and inventory automatically through a system of tags and sensors. It was a potential replacement for the manual scanning of bar codes, a technology that itself revolutionized retail two decades earlier. Given the nearly non-existent cost of bar codes relative to RFID, several in the industry said, the EPC was a solution in search

antenna, often in the form of a tiny ribbon that can in turn be packaged into many forms, such as a label, or imbedded in between the cardboard layers in a carton. On the microchip is stored information about the product that the tag is affixed to, which can then be

opportunity to improve organizations, allowing to go to clients quickly, precisely and supplying tweaked organizations.In our RFID beneficiary end we store all information of things with the RFID mark code. Exactly when a thing who 's having RFID tag with it is come in extent of beneficiary our structure bring code from RFID card and thereafter check information set away with it and showcase same on LCD. In case RFID tag having no section in our structure then it will show thing not enlisted in store. By

identify an animal, person, or thing" ("radio-frequency identification," 2013). An RFID system includes a transponder including an antenna and a chip that can easily store a significant amount of data such as location details, manufacturer details and product numbers if any. There are three basic types of the RFID readers. Fixed readers with an external antenna which are often used at the entry points of the yards. Handheld readers are used by personnel moving through the yards or the space. Then there

straightforwardness [GS07]. In cross-organization logistics working together organizations need to concede to sentence structure and semantics for on-label information association so as to effectively share data along the production network. The EPC (Electronic Product Code) Network is in light of a solitary extraordinary identifier which is put away on the RFID label

up to 16 percent and out of stock items with electronic product codes (EPC) were replenished three times faster than non-tagged items. Also, stores with RFID were 63 percent more effective in replenishing tagged items than control stores and experienced a 10 percent reduction in manual orders, which reduced excess inventory. RFID has also been positive in that it helps to make sure that promotional displays are delivered and in place so that products are in Wal-Mart stores and ready for sale when
