Abstract

Radio frequency identification (RFID) holds the promise of real-time identifying, locating, tracking and monitoring physical objects without line of sight and it can be used for a wide range of pervasive computing applications. The elaboration of new methods and software architectures for the management of an infrastructure with a large number of RFID tags has a special importance, especially in the context of software extension for many manufacturers. The development of the technology, mainly the Internet allowed to companies to develop their own systems for the identification and monitoring of products. In order to verify the authenticity of products, it is important that different applications to communicate and interact. For such heterogeneous computing environments, large and geographically, a centralized approach is difficult or even impossible. A simple, but safe method will be provided for the ordinary citizen to authenticate directly the products in the stores.
