ABSTRACT:
The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates simulating one or more devices respective to disparate vendors, wherein the devices can be associated with an RFID infrastructure. A physical device can wirelessly receive data from a tag. A device simulator can employ a virtual replication of the physical device to simulate the physical device within an RFID network allowing the device to be virtually represented as if physically within the RFID network.
