Radio frequency identification (RFID) tags have been around for a while now. Wal‐Mart and the Department of Defense mandated their use four years ago. Since then, the cost of RFID tags has dropped. But several sectors have still been slow to adopt them. Is this delay acceptable, or will delayed adoption harm a company? The authors take a close look at these and other critical RFID issues. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
