PRESENTATION DAY Group ID: gp09-cmg Speaker: Matthew Albers RFID APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT SUITE

CONTENT Problem addressed Solution Applications developed In reflection Question time

To design an efficient RFID Application Development Suite File format to specify simple behaviours of RFID tags, readers and linked devices Design, implement and evaluate three linked applications Authoring Tool Simulator Runtime Player THE PROBLEM

Use of XML and Java Zipping of files Given an.rfid file extension Design the three applications Drag and drop usage in the applications Association of tags with behaviours THE SOLUTION

Creation of the XML file Creation of behaviours Associate tags with them Editing the behaviours view All related files get zipped up AUTHORING TOOL

Simulates the “playing” of files Independent of hardware Loads an.rfid file Displays all tags and their behaviours Drag and drop one onto the RFID tag reader “Plays” the behaviour SIMULATOR

“Plays” the RFID files Relies on use of the RFID hardware and linked devices Links with the Simulator RUNTIME PLAYER

Generally successful Time plan was not followed very closely Issue with video compatibility with Java No major group working issues Suite can be used in a wide variety of areas For example, as part of an interactive museum exhibit IN REFLECTION
