WEB OF PRODUCT TRACEABILITY

This is the landing page for Web of Product Traceability Community
Group.
In the modern commercial society, product traceability is an important
technical system to support the business credit of enterprises.Product
traceability is also widely used in product quality supervision, modern
logistics, financing Mortgage, commercial consumption and other fields.
Therefore, many countries and organizations attach great importance to
the development of Traceability Technology. Many independent
traceability systems have been built by different countries and
organizations. Uniform standards will help to improve the
interconnection between them. With the development of technology,
two-dimensional code has gradually replaced the commodity bar code, and
the data contained in the RFID tag can reach 64K bytes, or even more.The
article code based on URL is compatible with traditional GS. 1 commodity
code and other coding systems.Therefore, an open product traceability
network can be established from bottom to top based on WWW technology.
Master data, transaction data and event data can be described by XML /
JSON technology. Technologies such as Internet of things and blockchain
will also play an important role in the network.The web of product
traceability community is aims to build an open traceability network
that can run on the public Internet.The original closed traceback
network will not disappear, they can access to the open network as an
autonomous domain.In the field of product traceability, there are also
problems of data mining and information security. The community is aims
to build various application models and interfaces to mine the value of
traceability data.In order to ensure that the traceability data is not
leaked, the community also needs to formulate corresponding information
security standards to strictly control the access rights of traceability
data.
This will be a very promising and exciting work. We expect more
enterprises and experts to join in and build an open traceability
network.
