英文摘要 | Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) has been a hot topic of research and application in recent years. It is widely used in the fields of supply chain and logistics, manufactory industry, assets management, personnel tracing and monitoring, etc. Being one of the most important components, RFID middleware is so called 'Nerve Center' of the RFID system.It provides functions of connecting RFID readers from various manufacturers, and processing and reporting tag data to the enterprise application clients.Therefore the performance of RFID middleware is highly responsible for the whole RFID system. This thesis is mainly about the test method of RFID middleware performance by simulating the actual RFID applications. The contents of this thesis are as follows. 1. Research on technical background RFID, RFID middle and software test are introduced in the aspect of basic concept, main applications and research focus in the thesis. Following the analyzing of the station of RFID middleware systemic test in the whole RFID test architecture, this thesis presents the requirements of software and hardware, components deployment, and the main test contents. 2. RFID middleware performance and its test method Various applications ask for various RFID middleware features, such as available readers, database, and operation system, expanding features, and accordance to standards. Concerning the application instance, this thesis presents the analysis of performance in scale and responsibility. Four main performance parameters, response time, throughput, number of readers, number of clients, and the test method are presented. 3. Design and implement of RFID Middleware Performance Test Platform This thesis presents the architecture and main functions of the RFID middleware performance test platform based on the analysis of performance and its test method. The main functions are as follows: reader and client emulation, automatic test flow management, test instance controller, data processing, communication mechanism, and log management. On the whole, this thesis mostly focuses on the design and implement of RFID Middleware Performance Test Platform. |
