Some research needs to be conducted in close collaboration with industry. To facilitate this, the labs launched Special Interest Groups (SIGs) where industry and academia come together.
A SIG is typically run by a single lab, but in the background, all of the labs are closely working together. Some of the recent SIGs we started include: Health Care, Aerospace, Automotive, Packaging, Anti-Counterfeiting, Network Architecture, Mobile RFID & Wireless Sensor Network, Wireless System Engineering, and Item Level Tagging.
Anti-Counterfeiting and Secure Supply-Chain focuses on protection against counterfeiting and on product traceability. The main emphasis is on EPC technology without neglecting other methods. In addition to the technology, topics include the impacts on processes within an enterprise, the assessment of customer acceptance and the analysis of business cases in order to examine operational efficiency.
Auto-ID Sensor Networks provide RFID systems with the ability to manage data collected from a network's edge. The main emphasis is to extend EPCIS visibility to customers, partners, and suppliers through a consolidated view of the entire supply chain monitored by sensors. This project is centered among multiple dimensions, such as hardware development, power management, sensor management, sensor fusion, data integration, and the development of business cases.
This conference has brought together 350 leading researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry together to facilitate sharing of Novel services and applications in an Internet of Thing...
