SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRACKING WITH USER MODIFIABLE INTERFACE

摘要

A method and system for tracking an entity in a specific domain. A generic application interface is provided, configured for user modification so that the interface may be customized for a specific tracking requirement. A tracking engine (12a) is provided for abstracting the tracking data provided by the generic application interface to a set of generic object models. Each instantiated object comprising the generic object models encapsulates the tracking data pertaining to a tracked item. A tracking router (12b) is also provided for communicating at least one of the instantiated objects to a tracking station at a location for processing in accordance with an anticipated physical flow of the objects through a domain. As a result, instantiated object can be processed by the tracking engine independently of the specific tracking data contained therein.
