Abstract RFID Shortcomings of RFID Advantages of Cloud Computing Cloud Computing Application- Scalable RFID

Abstract

The primary focus of this paper is to propose an architecture framework for the existing RFID systems melded with the Cloud Computing paradigm in order to improve the scalability and boost the performance of RFID systems.

What is RFID?

RFID = Radio Frequency IDentification. An ADC (Automated Data Collection) technology that:

uses radio-frequency waves to transfer data between a reader and a movable item to identify, categorize, track..

does not require physical sight or contact between reader/scanner and the tagged item.

Performs the operation using low cost components. Other ADC technologies: Bar codes, OCR.

Cloud Computing

The phrase Cloud Computing is used to mean a type of Internet-based computing, where different services such as servers, storage and applications are delivered to an organization's computers and devices through the Internet.

Why Cloud Computing?

There are many reasons why more and more companies are shifting toward IT solutions that include cloud computing.

1.Cost cut down – Capital as well as operating cost

2.Burden is reduced due to offloading 3. Scaling of IT Infrastructure to meet the

demands.
