Dieter Uckelmann is managing director of the LogDynamics Lab at the University of Bremen. His main research area include the synchronization of material, information, and financial flows under the influence of Auto-ID and billing technologies. Dieter Uckelmann is co-founder and president of the Global RF Lab Alliance – an international network of RFID-focused research organizations with representatives in Europe, USA and Asia and associate editor of the International Journal of RF Technologies: Research and Applications.

From the reviews: "In this book version of his dissertation, Uckelmann painstakingly details the limitations and obstacles to success for two key emerging technologies: radio frequency identification (RFID) and the EPCglobal architecture framework. ... Uckelmann demonstrates that the traditional types of cost benefit analyses for these kinds of technology adoption projects are flawed, in that they do not convince managers to adopt them. ... Readers of this book will gain an understanding of how to properly define and evaluate information flows in a supply network." (Ernest Hughes, ACM Computing Reviews, July, 2012)
