Abstract.In the increasing requirements of quick responses to the market,for the market competition became more fiercely and the customers’ diversifiedneeds of product increased. Enterprises realized the importance ofcollaboration between suppliers and partners, especially for saving responsetime to order. More and more enterprises feel the time pressure during theprocess of customer's need when they should satisfy customer’s individualdemands. Lowering down the logistics time means lowering logistics cost, especiallythe stock cost. Thus the market competition ability of business enterprises couldbe raised. While RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) techniques could reducethe dealing time on supply chain. How to use RFID techniques to declineinventory and waste is a tough issue. This article targeted on collaboration of supply chain in clothing industryfor research object, a valid method for modeling of real-timesupply chain collaboration was proposed. RFID technology was applied instock management, as optimization method was adopted for inventory controlbased collaboration. A collaboration model was build to decline time, cost andwaste. Finally, the application method was verified according emulation.

1 Introduction of RFID technology and itsapplication
RFID (RadioFrequency Identification) technique is a kind of non-touch automaticallyidentificationtechnique. The basic theory is making use of the radio frequency signaland space coupling to deliverandrealize the automatically identification ofproducts [1]. Because of the characteristicsof RFID with non-touch and high speed automatically identification, we canestablish logic connection from the RFID label information to the DBMS systemsfor tracking real-time status ofproducts in Supply Chain.
In the logistics and the supply chainmanagement systems, RFID is extensively been applied in collecting data, especially insituation that needs high accuracy of data.RFID can carry outfast logistics information obtaining, which could supportmanagementand controlling decision. Yi Wei-Ming[2]added the price factor forreference and made use of a RFID technique to carry on the stock control andoptimization research.Ye Jianfang[3]used RFID in clothing warehouse management. Reference[4]to reference [9] showed models intelecommunication systems that the cooperation how to be carried out. Fromwhich we sawthat RFID technique has been successful widely applied insupply chain, thenit inspiredus to use RFID technology in real-timesupply chain collaboration.
