Abstract

In recent decades, wireless sensor networks (WSNs)-based radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies are paving the way for the internet of things (IoT) industrial applications. These applications are the manifestation of new-generation information systems (IS). For example, the automation of supply chain management (SCM) operations, library management systems, and healthcare systems are a few industries specific applications. RFID-based IS helps to identify and track objects, while WSNs cooperate in collecting and providing information from interconnected sensors. It includes technical challenges, such as presenting RFID systems with appropriate identification capabilities into sensing, providing the power of computation, and interconnecting them wirelessly in tags sensing architectures. In this way, the latest advances in WSNs and integrating both technologies have resulted in the opportunity to develop innovative IoT-based industrial applications. This chapter reviews these technologies (i.e., RFID, WSNs) and the challenges that need to resolve for smooth operation.
