Ontology Based Coordination in RFID Network
Jianmu Ye, Lei Chen · 2008
Coordination mechanisms using semantic Web rule languages are being studied. But we haven't found any job is specific for the coordination of RFID network. This paper intends to explain the theory and processes of this coordination mechanism used in RFID network with multi-agent system (MAS) framework. It firstly defines an ontology prototype in RFID field; and then gives the basic principle of the mechanism which is used to deal with the collaboration and conflict among agents. This ontological method for coordination in RFID network is proved to be feasible, effective and promising. Our job is a preliminary groundwork for the implementation of ontology based RFID coordination mechanism.
