Abstract :
This paper presents a study how radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology can contribute to the optimization of production process. RFID allows the automation identification of entire batches of goods on the level of pallets, cases, or even individual items. Moreover, RFID facilitates electronics data collection under circumstances in which alternative technologies - e.g., bar codes, cannot be applied. Companies can use these data to create models of their business process that enable them to gain a virtual image of aspects of their enterprise, such as their shop floor or supply chain. This virtual image can help them acquire higher awareness of problems and localize potentials for process optimizations.
