2008 Guangdong-Hong Kong RFID
Technology Application
Summit
23
July 2008
Co-organized
by the LSCM R&D Centre and the Guangdong RFID
Technology Service Centre (GDRC) with support and
guidance from the Office of the Government Chief
Information Officer of the HKSAR Government (OGCIO) and
Department of Information Industry of Guangdong Province
(GDIID), the "2008 Guangdong-Hong Kong RFID Technology
Application Summit" was held on July 23 this year. It
aims to foster Hong Kong and Mainland
China
partnership in promoting RFID adoption and logistics and
supply chain enabling technology.
It was
our great honor to have Ms. Yanling Wang, Director of
GDRC and Dr. Frank Tong, Director of Research and
Technology Development of the LSCM R&D Centre,
to be our Master of Ceremony in the event. Many
important guest speakers from industry and
technology partners as well as researchers from both
mainland
China and
Hong
Kong were invited to
give speeches in the areas of Guangdong-Hong Kong
collaborating projects, RFID adoption, research and
industrialization. Another highlight of
the event was the panel discussion among the
expertise from the technology providers and industry
users on the topic of RFID & Sensor-based
Technologies for PRD Logistics led by Dr. Terry Ye,
Director of Research and Technology Development of
the LSCM R&D Centre. During the panel
discussion, both panelists and audiences participated
actively in the exchange of views and shared invaluable
insights.
The
active participation of researchers, technology
companies and user groups was truly impressive, hundreds
of participants made the Summit a
success.

| A new
corner sharing the news of our funded projects
......
Beginning
this month, we are glad to launch a new section in the
eNews to introduce the projects funded by the LSCM
R&D Centre. In this issue, we would like to provide
more information on the newly funded projects in 2008,
and continue to share more about the progress and
updates of different projects.
With the
fast-changing technologies nowadays, only the adoption
of the relevant technology could provide the optimal
advantage to the players in the logistics and supply
chain community to lead the market. Named "A Market
Intelligence Study on Enabling Technologies for
Industries related to Logistics & Supply Chain
Management" (ITP/036/07LP), the project aims to empower
the community players in this manner on production and
adoption of relevant technologies.
RFID
tagging is becoming a necessity in the product packaging
industry. "Package-specific RFID Tagging and Embedding
Technology" (GHP/046/07LP) is a project that aims to
design product specific RFID tags which are tuned and
optimized for the packaging materials and different form
factors to cope with the current industry
needs.
Along with
the popular adoption of RFID tags on the products, the
consumers are beginning to aware of the privacy and
security issues brought by the RFID tags. The project
"Trustworthy RFID Technologies: Methodology and
Practice" (GHP/044/07LP) will therefore focus to develop
a set of trustworthy RFID methodologies for the
market.
Utilization
of smart containers embedded with RFID and e-seal will
become popular as it is crucial for the realization of
containerized global supply chains and international
green lanes across the world. A Shenzhen-Hong
Kong collaborative project, namely "Interoperability
Technology and Applications for Container RFID and
e-seal" (GHP/025/07LZ) is aimed to develop smart
container with RFID, e-seal, information platform system
as well as to do R&D work on corresponding
interoperable middleware and gateway
technologies.
