Abstract

In this paper, we present mobile intelligence (MI) to develop delay tolerant RFID network for enabling delay tolerant logistics and supply chain applications. It provides intelligent and ubiquitous information access, relay, search and delivery over mobile relay networks (MRN) - a critical and ubiquitous infrastructure with convergence of RFID, wireless and sensor networks, and IP networks. It leverages mobile nodes to "bridge the network gap" towards enabling pervasive delay tolerant logistics and supply chain management.
