The subject invention provides a system and/or method that facilitates
executing a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) process by employing a
reader application markup language (RAML) schema that provides a portable
format to setup and deploy such RFID process. A schema component can
receive RFID data relating to an RFID architecture wherein a RAML schema
can be created based at least upon such RFID data (e.g., discovered
readers including settings and/or configurations). The RAML schema can
include a sub-system definition (e.g., containing the definition of
server state and entities in such server) and a process definition (e.g.,
containing process related entities and inter-relationships).
