Book excerpt: RFID Technology has been used and developed for more than 50 years; first by Harry Stockman in 1948 and its application has been commonly used around us. In today's information society the librarians have a great responsibility to organize and manage the knowledge centre due to exponential increase the volume of information which leads to the information explosion. Libraries have been seeking technological support to improve their organizational setup for providing effective customer services and also manage various services. Now libraries and information centers have started using Radio Frequenct Idintification (RFID) systems to replace their electro-magnetic and barcode systems in the late 1990s. The purpose of a RFID system si to enable data to be transmitted by a mobile device, called a tag, which is read by a RFID reader and processed according to the needs of a particular application. The use of RFID in tracking and access applications first appeared during the 1980s. RFID quickly gained attention because of its ability to track moving object. As the technology is developed more pervasive and possibly invasive uses for RFID tags are in the works. Across the globe, tye major performance challenges faced by the RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) Technology are uncertainty occurring in RFID data, RFID Reader waiting for time overhead and tag collisions. These issues provide a strong resistance to the technology in performing up to the best of its capabillities. RFID Technology is considered as "the next-generation technology" which has been used in many technical and academic libraries since the technology enables the optimization of multiple library process through the improvement, the automation, or even the elimination of existing process and the emergence of new process called "intelligent process" or "smart process:, which are automatically triggering actions or events. This paper describes about the RFID Technology, its components, services and also represents the most promising benefits from RFID Technology in library and information centers. The paper also highlights the present scenario of RFID Technology application in Indian libraries and information centers and proposal to introduce this technology on more and more academic libraries across the North-East Regioon of India in particular and rest of India in general.

Download or read book RFID for Libraries written by M. Paul Pandian and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-11-18 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many modern technologies give the impression that they somehow work by magic, particularly when they operate automatically and their mechanisms are invisible. A technology called RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), which is relatively new, has exactly this characteristic. Librarians everywhere are closely watching RFID technology. Advances over using bar codes on library materials, RFID tags are being touted as a way to radically redesign how library materials are handled. But it is expensive. The tags are vulnerable to wear and tear and the technology is not fully developed. It's unclear what sort of return on investment (ROI) it provides. While it is common for libraries to now have information technology expertise within their organizations, RFID may appear unfamiliar. RFID for Libraries: A practical guide examines what RFID technology is and how it works. The book reviews the development of computer technology and its effects on library operations over the last couple of decades. Further examination features the applications of RFID technology in libraries. An assessment of current implementations in libraries and the lessons learnt provides suggestions to overcome the issues faced. Concluding chapters look into the future to see what developments might be possible with RFID in libraries. Benefiting from the rich experience the author has gained during recent implementation of RFID based system for his library and the important title aids the library and information community in understanding RFID technology from a library perspective. Written by a librarian who has recently implemented the RFID system for his library Comprehensive review of available RFID systems for libraries Step by step guidelines for successful implementation of RFID systems in the library

Book excerpt: AUTOMATED SECURE COMPUTING FOR NEXT-GENERATION SYSTEMS This book provides cutting-edge chapters on machine-empowered solutions for next-generation systems for today’s society. Security is always a primary concern for each application and sector. In the last decade, many techniques and frameworks have been suggested to improve security (data, information, and network). Due to rapid improvements in industry automation, however, systems need to be secured more quickly and efficiently. It is important to explore the best ways to incorporate the suggested solutions to improve their accuracy while reducing their learning cost. During implementation, the most difficult challenge is determining how to exploit AI and ML algorithms for improved safe service computation while maintaining the user’s privacy. The robustness of AI and deep learning, as well as the reliability and privacy of data, is an important part of modern computing. It is essential to determine the security issues of using AI to protect systems or ML-based automated intelligent systems. To enforce them in reality, privacy would have to be maintained throughout the implementation process. This book presents groundbreaking applications related to artificial intelligence and machine learning for more stable and privacy-focused computing. By reflecting on the role of machine learning in information, cyber, and data security, Automated Secure Computing for Next-Generation Systems outlines recent developments in the security domain with artificial intelligence, machine learning, and privacy-preserving methods and strategies.

Download or read book Exploring the Potential of RFID and Mobile Technology in Your Library written by Abena Afolayan and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) allows an item, for example a library book, to be tracked and communicated with by radio waves. This technology is similar in concept to a cellphone. RFID is a broad term for technologies that use radio waves to automatically identify people or objects. There are several methods of identification, but the most common is to store a serial number that identifies a person or object, and perhaps other information, on a microchip that is attached to an antenna (the chip and the antenna together are called an RFID transponder or an RFID tag). The antenna enables the chip to transmit the identification information to a reader. The reader converts the radio waves reflected back from the RFID tag into digital information that can then be passed on to computers that can make use of it. RFID can be used library circulation operations and theft detection systems. RFID-based systems move beyond security to become tracking systems that combine security with more efficient tracking of materials throughout the library, including easier and faster charge and discharge, inventorying, and materials handling. This technology helps librarians reduce valuable staff time spent scanning barcodes while charging and discharging items. RFID is a combination of radio -frequency-based technology and microchip technology. Libraries should be exploring mobile devices as a way to connect with patrons. Creating a library application or mobile Web site that allows patrons to access library hours, view their library account or even search databases is easier than most people think. The book entitled Exploring the Potential of RFID and Mobile Technology in Your Library emphasizes an overview of RFID technology in libraries; advice on how to select an RFID solution, from choosing between suppliers and evaluating the competition to; designing your own solution and making the right business case; strategies for ensuring a smooth installation; case studies of RFID and technology use and a look at the future of RFID, including mobile technology and other uses beyond books. This book will be important reading for anyone with responsibility for integrating library systems, those with responsibility for selection, evaluation or procurement of IT solutions and responsibility for service development, managing collections or managing access to buildings. It will also be of interest to commercial companies, who are seeking insights into library working in order to introduce new products, and LIS students.
