Abstract: The research literature on Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) has 
grown exponentially in recent years. In a domain where new concepts and 
techniques are constantly being introduced, it is of interest to analyze recent 
trends in this literature. Although some attempts have been made in the past 
to review this stream of research, there has been no attempt to assess the 
contributions to this literature by individuals and institutions. This study 
assesses the contributions of individual researchers and institutions from 2004 
to 2008, based on their publications in SCI- or SSCI-indexed journals. The 
findings of this study offer researchers a unique view of this field and some 
directions for future research. Crown Copyright (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier
