  • Evaluation of Iso 11785 Low-Frequency Radio Identification Devices and the Characterization of Electromagnetic Interference in Practical Cattle Management Scenarios
    EVALUATION OF ISO 11785 LOW-FREQUENCY RADIO IDENTIFICATION DEVICES AND THE CHARACTERIZATION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE IN PRACTICAL CATTLE MANAGEMENT SCENARIOS by SARAH ELLEN RYAN B.S., Washington State University, 2006 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Animal Science and Industry College of Agriculture KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2008 Approved by: Major Professor D. A. Blasi Abstract Low-frequency (LF) radio frequency identification (RFID) transponders (n = 1,993) representing both full-duplex and half duplex air interface technologies were evaluated. Transponders representing five manufacturers and seven types were evaluated for read distance (RD), resonance frequency (RF) and voltage response (VR). LF RFID transceivers (n = 24) were also evaluated for performance and variance as tested by read distance. Transponders were sorted into four categories based on RD performance on three transceivers, “Top 25%,” “Middle 50%,” “Bottom 25%,” and “No Read.” These categories were used for evaluation of transponders and transceivers in experiments one and two, respectively. In experiment one, the mean RF of the “Top 25%” transponders were closer to 134.2 kHz (P < 0.05) within a transponder type (TT). TT and mean RD performance category interacted to affect the VR of transponders (P < 0.05); transponders with lower VR tended to have longer RD within a TT. In experiment two, sixty transponders from the “Middle 50%” were used to evaluate transceivers. Transceivers represented five manufacturers and five transceivers per manufacturer; one transceiver was eliminated from testing due to mechanical problems. There was a significant interaction (P < 0.0001) for TT and transceiver manufacturer.

  • ISO Update Marec 2011
    International Standards in process An International Standard is the result of an agreement between the member bodies of ISO. A first important step towards an International Standard takes the form of a committee draft (CD) - this is circulated for study within an ISO technical committee. When consensus has been reached within the technical committee, the document is sent to the Central Secretariat for processing as a draft International Standard (DIS). The DIS requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. A confirmation vote is subsequently carried out on a final draft International Standard (FDIS), the approval criteria remaining the same.

  • A Hybrid Traceability Technology Selection Approach for Sustainable Food Supply Chains
    sustainability Article A Hybrid Traceability Technology Selection Approach for Sustainable Food Supply Chains Samantha Islam 1,*, Louise Manning 2 and Jonathan M. Cullen 1 1 Energy, Fluids and Turbomachinery Division, Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge, Cambridge CB2 1PZ, UK; [email protected] 2 School of Agriculture, Food and the Environment, Royal Agricultural University, Gloucestershire GL7 6JS, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Traceability technologies have great potential to improve sustainable performance in cold food supply chains by reducing food loss. In existing approaches, traceability technologies are selected either intuitively or through a random approach, that neither considers the trade-off between multiple cost–benefit technology criteria nor systematically translates user requirements for traceability systems into the selection process. This paper presents a hybrid approach combining the fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) with integer linear programming to select the optimum traceability technologies for improving sustainable performance in cold food supply chains. The proposed methodology is applied in four case studies utilising data collected from literature and expert interviews. The proposed approach can assist decision-makers, e.g., food business operators and technology companies, to identify what combination of technologies best suits a given food supply chain scenario and reduces food loss at minimum cost.

November 2013 ——————————— Harsha Umesh Babu i Acknowledgments Although this appears at the beginning of the document, I would like to emphasize that it was written at the very end of this wonderful journey. The simple reason, for why I had put off writing this section is - I do not know how to appropriately express my gratitude to all the people who have helped me reach this stage in life. I do not want to sound obligatory in acknowledging the help and influence while at same time inadvertently forget mentioning names. I would like to express my sincere thanks to Prof. Wilhelm Stork and my master thesis supervisor Prof. K.-D.
