Availability of increasingly rich biological data has tremendous potential for discovering new knowledge that is mostly found via the links among data sources. The current simple ways of implementing these links do not explicitly represent their semantics, and therefore, fail to provide useful...

The global adoption of RFID technology presents a number of challenges to IT architecture design. This paper identifies important requirements for RFID data provisioning at an abstract architecture level. A non-invasive architecture style is proposed to satisfy these requirements. Our proposed...

Integrating real-time RFID data into autonomous and heterogeneous information systems across the business value chain presents a number of challenges. At an abstract architecture level, this paper identifies important requirements for RFID data provisioning and points of integration. A...
