RFID: Uncovering the Value Applying RFID within the Retail and Consumer Package Goods Value Chain

Strategic aspects of cross-company item-level RFID usage - A game theoretic analysis

We propose an economic supply chain model that accounts for typical inefficiencies resulting from low visibility of the flow of consumer goods. Using realistic numerical input values for the model, we illustrate how the profit distribution among manufacturer and retailer changes as item-level RFID is used for different purposes along the consumer goods supply chain. Applying basic Game Theoreti...

Privacy-value-control harmonization for RFID adoption in retail

Privacy concerns have, at least in part, impeded the adoption of radio frequency identification (RFID) in retail. The adoption of other automatic identification (auto-ID) applications shows that consumers often are willing to trade their privacy or their control of personal information against some value afforded by the application. In this paper, the interplay between privacy, value, and contr...

A Conceptual Framework of RFID Adoption in Retail Using TOE Framework

Motivated by the need to understand the underlying antecedents of RFID adoption in retail, this study proposes and tests a framework predicting RFID adoption intent. Based on the TOE (technology-organizationenvironment) framework, this research develops and validates the research framework to examine the influence of twelve contextual factors under four broad categories (technological, organiza...

A Simulation Model of a Retail Distribution Centre with RFID Technology

This paper presents a simulation model that has been developed to analyse how the application of Radio Frequency Identification technology (RFID) affects material handling activities in a retail distribution centre. The simulation model handles both stochastic and dynamic behaviours, and describes how the receiving, picking and shipping activities will behave and perform over time when RFID tag...
