SVCWireless September seminar will put RFID technology in perspective by
following a "how-things-work" story line from the beginning of high-volume
deployment for a specific application to the all-out adaptation of RFID tags
for wider applications. The seminar provides insights into an emerging
technology that is driven by its users and brings together engineering minds
from fields of nano-technology, wireless networking, database development,
process control and, last but not least, the entire channel from manufacturing,
transportation and retail.
