Abstract:
1. A method comprising: obtaining a tag identifier of a radio frequency identification (RFID) transponder that is unique to the RFID transponder; generating a network routable address by using the tag identifier as part of the network routable address; mapping the network routable address to the RFID transponder, wherein the network routable address is used to communicate with the RFID transponder over a data network, and wherein the communication with the RFID transponder includes historical data related to control criterion of an asset coupled to the RFID transponder that is received and stored by the RFID transponder; determining, by a tracking system, whether the control criterion of the asset is exceeded; generating, by the tracking system, a message indicating the control criterion of the asset is exceeded, wherein the tracking the system is remote from the RFID transponder; and routing the message to the RFID transponder using the network routable address.
