RFID et acquisition de données événementielles : Retours d'expérience chez Bénédicta

Abstract

Numeric identifiers are converging, whatsoever their use: supported on hardware technologies (such as RFID) and fixed on in material flows or representing virtual in the information flows (IT systems). This convergence is the beginning of a wider IT revolution in the management of companies and their associated processes: The Network of objects is the perfect illustration of this. To succeed in this evolution, a prior work on master and alignment alongside the considered procedures (over a value chain) is mandatory. RFID is, for sure, one of the best available hardware technologies to mark the but is also a part of a whole: More important is the global data sharing on the Internet of things which potentially changes the role of every player and puts the consumer in the middle of everything. New methodologies and implementations are also necessary since the existing IT systems are definitely not adapted to this revolution (unable to deal with the huge amount of data that will feed the system). Benedicta has therefore experienced an innovative bottom-up approach, based on both an event driven Architecture and service oriented one (framework of small decisional systems) to this achievement. Main stakes are consequently not exactly in the RFID but in the network and its sharing capabilities
