Radio frequency identification (RFID) has been widely used in supporting the logistics management on manufacturing shopfloors where production resources attached with RFID facilities are converted into smart manufacturing objects (SMOs) which are able to sense, interact, and reason to create a ubiquitous environment. Within such environment, enormous data could be collected and used for supporting further decision-makings such as logistics planning and scheduling. This paper proposes a holistic Big Data approach to excavate frequent trajectory from massive RFID-enabled shopfloor logistics data with several innovations highlighted. Firstly, RFID-Cuboids are creatively introduced to establish a data warehouse so that the RFID-enabled logistics data could be highly integrated in terms of tuples, logic, and operations. Secondly, a Map Table is used for linking various cuboids so that information granularity …
