Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology: Gaining A Competitive Value Through Cloud Computing

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) uses radio waves to track the movement of goods through the Supply Chain system. The identity of an object is captured with a unique serial number that is transmitted wirelessly to a computer system. Small businesses are facing RFID implementation barriers. The barriers range from the perspective of the consumer-goods manufacturers and retail organizations. We propose implementing RFID technology using cloud computing framework to alleviate or reduce the implementation cost which is the most prevalent barrier.
