Abstract :
With the RFID technology applied to warehouse management to enhance the efficiency of warehousing operations, the operator can collect material information flexibly and easily. Different RFID management software communicates with the hardware more or less in the same way. Through the development of reusable middleware communicating between hardware and software and packing it with storage operations, a package of storage middleware is established. The storage middleware can reduce the complexity of the development of RFID management software, thereby simplifying the storage business processes. In this paper, the work process and the application in warehousing operation of the storage middleware will be introduced.
