Performance assessment of XACML authorizations for Supply Chain Traceability Web Services
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2012-11)Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Web Services (WS) offer advanced flexibility and interoperability capabilities. However they imply significant performance overheads that need to be carefully considered. Supply Chain ... -
RFID diagnostics of promotion execution
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2010-04)Previous studies have shown that many consumer goods manufacturers believe that their promotions are not well executed in retail stores. One common concern is that in-store promotions are not synchronized with television ... -
RFID tag antenna based sensing: Does your beverage glass need a refill?
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2010-04)Liquid level detection in customer beverage glasses and liquor bottles in the service industry is important for maintaining quality of service and good approval ratings. Current sensing approaches rely either on visual ... -
RFID tag antenna based temperature sensing
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010-04)Temperature monitoring is important in a number of fields, particularly cold supply chain applications. Most commercial wireless temperature sensors consist of transceivers, memory and batteries to maintain a temperature ... -
RFID tag antenna based temperature sensing using shape memory polymer actuation
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011-01)Ubiquitous temperature monitoring is important to boost visibility in applications such as cold supply chain management. Current sensors monitor and log a time history of temperature data, but their cost limits the scale ... -

Risk in the Global Supply Chain
(2006)Carbon footprints are not on the priority list of risk analysts in operations management for at least half or more of global businesses. What are the other risks in the global supply chain? -
Session-based security enhancement of RFID systems for emerging open-loop applications
(Springer London, 2014-08)Radio frequency identification (RFID) is an important technique used for automatic identification and data capture. In recent years, low-cost RFID tags have been used in many open-loop applications beyond supply chain ... -
Special Section on RFID
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-01)The eight articles in this special section describe state-of-the-art technologies and tools and one application of RFID. -
Stable arrangements of mobile sensors for sampling physical fields
(American Automatic Control Council/IEEE, 2012-06)Today's wireless sensor nodes can be easily attached to mobile platforms such as robots, cars and cell phones enabling pervasive sensing of physical fields (say of temperature, vibrations, air quality and chemicals). We ... -
A three-dimensional self-supporting low loss microwave lens with a negative refractive index
(American Institute of Physics, 2012-10)Demonstrations of focusing with metamaterial lenses have predominantly featured two dimensional structures or stacks of planar elements, both limited by losses which hinder realized gain near the focal region. In this ... -
