Design of Lightweight RFID Middleware for Warehouse Management System

Abstract:

With the development of computer network automation and the rapid development of e-commerce, more and more enterprises need to update their own warehouse management system to adapt to the change of technology. RFID technology is widely used all over the society due to its rapid, real-time, accurate sampling and processing information ability. This paper applies RFID technology in the warehouse management system to put forward the lightweight RFID middleware architecture for the warehouse management system .According to the ALE standard launched by the EPC global, the paper mainly realizes the function of basic middleware which has the ability to receive and process data. Meanwhile, the middleware uses Mysql database to select useful things for application software system. The middleware designed in the paper is simple in structure and powerful in function which will do well for small and medium-sized enterprises.
