Dependability of Aggregated Objects, a pervasive integrity checking architecture

International audienceRFID-enabled security solutions are becoming ubiquitous; for example in access control and tracking applications. Well known solutions typically use one tag per physical object architecture to track or control, and a central database of these objects. This architecture often requires a communication infrastructure between RFID readers and the database information system. Aggregated objects is a different approach presented in this paper, where a group of physical objects use a set of RFID tags to implement a self-contained security solution. This distributed approach offers original advantages, in particular autonomous operation without an infrastructure support, and enhanced security
