RFID- based supply chain traceability system

In this paper we propose a real solution for gathering information throughout the entire pig meat supply chain. The architecture consists of a a complex identification system based on RFID tags that transmits data to a distributed database during all phases of the production process. The specific work environment required identifying a suitable technology for implementation in the supply chain and the best possible organization. The aim of this work is to keep track of all the information generated during meat processing, not only for traceability purposes but chiefly for enhancing and optimizing production. All information generated by the traceability system will be collected in a central database accessible by end users thtough a public dedicated web interface.
