Performance Test Tool for RFID Middleware: Parameters, Design, Implementation, and Features

Recently, major software vendors (such as Sun, IBM, Oracle) introduced a RFID middleware product which process RFID tag data causing extended RFID related technology and application. RFID middleware which receives tag data from reader, internally processing received data, and transmit the results to the application acts as a key role of applying RFID technology to the application. In this paper, we define parameters for RFID middleware performance and introduce the design of a performance test tool of RFID middleware
