摘要

Radio frequency identification of unique products in distribution and supply chains appears to be a burgeoning revolution for some of the world's largest companies. Companies both large and small produce and distribute billions of products annually to wholesalers and retailers. Tracking shipments, monitoring and controlling inventories, and maintaining inventories represent a significant business effort. We are all familiar with the little black and white bar codes printed on the labels and packages on almost everything that we purchase. While the barcode was invented more than 50 years ago, it was not used commercially until 1966. By 1970, the Universal Grocery Products Identification Code (UGPIC) standard was written by a company called Logicon, Inc. Initially, just a few products were labeled with bar codes, but as the benefits of bar coding were realized, more and more product packages included the familiar codes. The UGPIC code led the way for the introduction of the Universal Product Code (UPC), which is still in use today. When making a purchase, hand or counter scanners are used to read the bar codes, which contain information about the product and pricing. We can readily see the benefit and convenience in using bar codes at checkout counters.
