Theoretical and experimental investigation of impact of
automatic identification in healthcare and automotive
industries in Iran

Abstract: In the age of technological advancement and speed in the communications,
the word "power" and "information" walk side by side. The organizations
from various sectors such as productive, trade or services and their
affiliated institutions have already realized that focusing only on their
own interest is not very intelligent. It is not good enough in this
competitive Internationalized Corporation.
A companies' effort will be of no use if there is not a powerful nation
with buying power to purchase its products and services in an efficient
manner. Similarly, if that company is not able to comply with all the
requirements or is not capable to implement the new technology, then its
future can be in jeopardy. GS1(former EAN.UCC) organizations with the
EPCglobal network are aimed at the quality enhancement, to the efficiency
of supply chain and to the formation of professionals, such as Healthcare
Centers and Automotive Industry with this newly born technology called
EPC/RFID (Electronic Product Code/Radio Frequency Identification).
At the moment, training of professional and related activities of EPC/RFID
with the emphasis on the development of educational and training of this
new Automatic Identification System is happening. By having the social
purpose and activities related with the enhancement of Automatic
Identification, automation, quality, modernization, and productivity of the
economic sectors world wide, public owned companies, private companies,
mixed companies, public and private bodies and organizations can quickly
adopt. With the ethics, which is set to perform at its best will be
dedicated to the community, environment and the quality of life.
It is believed that by enlarging the implementation process, EPC/RFID will
improve the quality of life. Depending on the quality work of GS1 Iran and
its counter-part countries' professional teams will be needed to work side
by side to improve the infrastructure of Automatic Identification Systems
which will take the Iranian community one step closer to being a developed
nation and it will certainly contribute to the development of the country.
