Abstract: An RFID-enabled storage container and systems and methods for assembly and use thereof. The RFID-enabled storage container may include adjustable shelving with built-in antennas, such that the shelving may be customized as may be needed. The system may include a storage container, an inventory management system, and one or more point of use terminals. The storage container may identify and check inventory stored thereon, and provide such information to the inventory management system. The storage container may notify the inventory management system when a product is no longer detected within its inventory, and the inventory management system may monitor the one or more point of use terminals to determine if the undetected product has been used at one of the point of use terminals. The inventory management system may also predict inventory needs as well as maintain age and other data for inventory and provide feedback via an illumination indication.

Abstract: A method of recording a data transaction comprising, at a device associated with a first entity, determining first seed data, generating a record of a first transaction between the first entity and a second entity, determining second seed data by combining at least the first seed data and the record of the first data transaction, generating a first hash by hashing the second seed data, the first hash comprising a history of data transactions involving the first entity and storing the first hash against the record of the first data transaction in a memory.
