If you ask me this question, definately I said yes. Not only boosting the usage of RFID application, but it can offers more than that. RFID technology is purposedly designed to eliminate the bar code technology. Its pottential can eliminate the importance of Sampling Method which is widely used by the statistician.
What is Sampling Method ? It is incumbent on the researcher to clearly define the target population. There are no strict rules to follow, and the researcher must rely on logic and judgment. The population is defined in keeping with the objectives of the study.
Sometimes, the entire population will be sufficiently small, and the researcher can include the entire population in the study. This type of research is called a census study because data is gathered on every member of the population.
Sampling methods are classified as either probability or nonprobability. In probability samples, each member of the population has a known non-zero probability of being selected. Probability methods include random sampling, systematic sampling, and stratified sampling. In nonprobability sampling, members are selected from the population in some nonrandom manner. These include convenience sampling, judgement sampling, quota sampling, and snowball sampling.
