Leveraging Complex Event Processing for Rfid Applications: a Case Study in Hospitals
نویسندگان
چکیده
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) has emerged as a key technology for automatic data collection and asset tracking and has been adopted in a variety of industries. However, the large volume and high velocity of data poses a major challenge for maintaining data processing efficiency and effectiveness. One viable solution for dealing with this challenge is Complex Event Processing (CEP), which can extract meaningful events for business applications. This paper examines different aspects of applying CEP model to RFID applications. We present the motivation, benefits and framework and walk through a scenario to study CEP-embedded RFID applications in hospitals.

متن کاملRFID Complex Event Processing: Applications in Real-Time Locating System
Complex event processing (CEP) can extract meaningful events for real-time locating system (RTLS) applications. To identify complex event accurately in RTLS, we propose a new RFID complex event processing method GEEP, which is based on the timed automata (TA) theory. By devising RFID locating application into complex events, we model the timing diagram of RFID data streams based on the TA. We o...
