I 'd like to introduce several academic communities I am familiar with:ISR, IEEE RFID.
ISR stands for Information Systems Research, which is an an academic journal that publishes research papers in the areas of Information Systems and Technology. ISR was established in in 1990 by the INFORMS (Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences), and because of the high quality of its papers, ISR was recently selected as one of the top academic journals by BusinessWeek. ISR describes itself as:
"...a leading international journal of theory, research, and intellectual development, focused on information systems in organizations, institutions, the economy, and society."

IEEE refers to Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. It produces about 30% of the world's research literature in the electrical/electronics engineering and computer science fields, with over 100 peer-reviewed journals. It may be the biggest technical professional organization in the world. IEEE RFID 2008 is an annual conference, which aims to address the technical and policy challenges in the areas of RFID (radio frequency identification). This conference mainly focuses on RFID technologies, RFID enabled large-scale distributed information systems, and RFID based applications.
