Abstract
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a new technology which
allows a sensor (reader) to read, from a distance, and without line of
sight, a unique product identification code (EPC) associated with a
tag. Such tags are very useful in inventory management and logistics,
because they can be used in order to track the movement and locations
of large volumes of items in a cost effective way. This leads to massive
streams of noisy data, which can be used in the context of a variety of
data management and event processing algorithms. The use of RFID
also has a number of privacy challenges associated with it, because a tag
on an item being carried by a person, also becomes a unique location tag
for that person. Therefore, methods need to to be designed to increase
the privacy and security of RFID technology. This chapter will provide
a broad overview and survey of a variety of RFID data management,
mining and processing techniques. We will also discuss the privacy and
security issues associated with the use of RFID technology.
