Résumé:
1980 marked the start of a boom in radiofrequency
identification (RFID) technology, initially associated with a
growing need for traceability. In view of the technological
progress and lower costs, RFID’s area of application became
much broader and, today, multiple business sectors take
advantage of this technology. But in order to achieve the
maximum benefits of RFID technology, the RFID information
collected should be useful, for this it is necessary that we can
collect it and deliver it in the best conditions for the whole
applications that have need of its exploitation, for that a
dedicated middleware solution is required to ensure the
collection of RFID information and their integration in an
information systems. The issues and key points of this integration
as the description of the RFID technology will be summarized in
the present paper, with a new middleware architecture.
We focuses mainly on components, and design of our
middleware MedRFID, solution developed in our Lab, and which
integrates mobility and provides extensibility, scalability,
abstraction, ease of deployment and compatibility with IATA
standards and EPCglobal standards.
