This panel brings together leaders from both academia and industry in order to frankly and comprehensively address the following issues: 1) What is the RFID vision for supply chain management? What can RFID promise? Are those promises relevant to the industry needs in practical circumstances? 2) Can RFID deliver the promises? What are the obstacles? What are the ongoing research and industry initiatives and their respective relevancy to e-business in general? 3) What are the strategy and roadmap towards the RFID vision? What are the challenges and opportunities ahead, e.g. China standards development? This panel will help us understand how academia and industry can work hand-in-hand to realize the potential of RFID in supply chain and logistics management through innovative RFID technologies and applications.
