Abstract. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is among the key technology of Internet of Things (IOT).It is a sensor device that can monitor, identify, locate and tracking physical objects via its tag. The energy in RFID is commonly being used unwisely because they do repeated readings on the same tag as long it resides in the reader vicinity. Repeated readings are unnecessary because it only generate duplicate data that does not contain new information. The reading process need to be schedule accordingly to minimize the chances of repeated readings to save the energy. This will reduce operational cost and can prolong the tag's battery lifetime that cannot be replaced. In this paper, we propose an approach to minimize energy spent during reading processes. Experiments conducted shows that proposed algorithm contribute towards significant energy savings in RFID compared to other approaches. [5]. It enables process improvement on the area where it turns tedious manual works into simplified automated process. For example, instead of scanning the barcodes manually, RFID can simultaneously read all the objects and return related data to the system in very short time [6]. The growth of RFID deployment has been exponential since its reintroduction in the late 90s. In 2006 the number of tags has been sold is three times bigger than over the previous 60 years [7]. In 2014, the total market value for RFID is $9.2 billion and is expected to reach $30.24 billion in 2024 [8]. IntroductionBased on this market pattern and trajectory, it is expected that RFID will becoming the most common pervasive devices in our life. As the most widely used technology, we need an energysavings mechanism to cut the system operational cost. Minimizing the usage also can prolong the devices lifetime which help businesses obtain longer return-on-investment period. In certain circumstances, such as deployment at a natural disaster place [9], energy savings conscience is very important as the energy resource were limited and hard to be renew. For example the use of active tag to detect trapped coal miners in the tunnel [10]. The evacuation need to be done quickly before the battery on the tag dried out.In this paper we present how energy savings is achieved through efficient reader scheduling mechanism. The readers are schedule in a way that no adjacent reader will do reading at the same time. Based on this the risk of signal collision is reduce to zero and the need to repeat readings because of the collision can be avoided. The tag in the overlapped vicinity also can be read by only one reader

“…CLM Services as described in this study emphasize IT services by defining online technical support request for laboratory users and monitoring/tracking of computer laboratory resources, hereto identified as Equipment, Devices and Peripherals (EDPs). The concepts of tracking [5] will require a wireless Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC) technology, considered as "the next big thing" in the management and "the next revolution in supply chain" [6]. This is known as Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID), a common technology used in tracking items having enormous applications from business, to medicine and to military or crime science.…”

Abstract-The paper is about the integration of an online technical support request services, and monitoring of equipment, devices, & peripherals using RFID in the computer laboratory rooms. The system includes tracking, adding, deleting, real time physical count, trace history, notifications on the technical support requests; and generating of reports. The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate the use of RFID in an Integrated Computer-Aided Laboratory Support System in Universities and Colleges. The following results were derived: the level of assessment on the existing technical support services of the institution is very satisfactory; the level of acceptance of RFID-ICLASS in terms of functionality, reliability, usability, efficiency, portability and maintainability is highly acceptable; the level of assessment of the effects of RFID-ICLASS was very strong. Based from these results the use of RFID-ICLASS reflects transparency in record keeping and improves the service to the students of the universities.Index Terms-Computer-aided, integration, laboratory support system, RFID.
