Abstract

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags have been widely used for identifying objects on a global scale. Discovery service (DS) acting as a broker between objects and their information sources needs to handle a huge amount of query requests from the user. So the performance of the node of DS must be powerful enough to handle lots of query requests sent to it. However, no performance improvement schemes for the node of DS have been proposed until now. Therefore this paper proposes a novel performance improvement scheme for the node of DS based on anycast and Distributed Hash Table (DHT) network. By analysis, the performance improvement scheme proposed in this paper can not only significantly improve the performance of the node of DS but also has the advantages of shortening its response time, avoiding the adverse influence of ISP-unfriendly policies and being transparent to the user, which satisfies the actual requirements pretty well.
