Oracle and Savi Technology Provide Critical Information Link to Track Active RFID-tagged Containers Shipped From Hong Kong to Japan: "Oracle and
Savi Technology, a Lockheed Martin company (NYSE: LMT), teamed up to
provide a critical information link to track in real time the location of
cargo containers shipped from Hong Kong to Japan. The work has just been
completed as a pilot project initiated by GS1 EPCglobal, the not-for-profit
standards organization driving adoption of the Electronic Product Code to
improve supply chain performance.
The milestone project was the first time that real-time information
generated from active, battery-powered RFID tags on sea containers was
exchanged with EPC Information Services (EPCIS), a draft GS1 EPCglobal
standard enabling trading partners to communicate in a common computer
language on objects moving throughout the supply chain. The communication
interface with the EPCIS Server and Repository was enabled through
integration of Oracle(R) Sensor Edge Server, a component of Oracle Fusion
Middleware, as well as Savi Site Manager operating software and active RFID
tag and data collection systems."
