Abstract

Recent advances in RFID technology, a reduction in costs and improved performance has precipitated a surge in Radio Frequency Identification Technology (RFID) activity in industry. There has been a similar escalation in the number of articles discussing RFID. Initially publications were restricted to mainly trade journals, newspapers and Internet sites. More recently, we note publications describing RFID research appearing in academic journals. Our review of literature identifies four distinct and interrelated RFID themes such as Physics, Applications, Benefits, and Challenges. We propose a research agenda that embraces the relationship between these themes and their impact on organisational preparedness.
