In this paper, we propose a manufacturing process model of Internet of Things devices using a Printed Circuit Board (PCB)-mounted RFID tag chip for reducing electronic wastes. Electrical and electronic products require a PCB surface mount and many examination. Also, conventional barcode systems cannot provide traceability management in PCB manufacturing before finishing Surface Mount Technology (SMT) process. The proposed process model does not require workers' attaching and detaching process unlike barcode systems. Also, RFID tag chip can record all the data in manufacturing steps. Thus, the number of connections to a database management system (DBMS) can be reduced.

Since a 2-dimensional (2D) bar code can retrieve data and information quickly, it is widely used and recognized as a useful tool for many industrial applications. However, the information capacity of the 2D bar code is still limited. Recently the analog-digital code (AD code), which has the largest storage capacity yet contained in a code, has been developed, thereby expanding the bar code's application range because it overcomes the limitation of data capacity. In this paper, we present the AD code and implement an effective embedded system which can transform text information into voice using the 2D AD code and Text To Speech (TTS). This voice information can also be transmitted to blind people as well as the old by capturing the AD code on paper or in books.

Pharmaceutical companies over the world are exposed to risks of lessened sales and negative impact on corporate image due to circulation of counterfeit drugs, which eventually threatens safety of patients. thus, in order to eradicate distribution of counterfeit drugs, many countries are taking initiatives to legalize and set serialization through e-Pedigree, which is based on RFID technology or barcode system to track and trace distribution of drugs from point of manufacturing to usage. therefore, this study contemplates domestic and international management system of medical drugs and suggests application methods of e-Pedigree based on RFID technology that promotes safety of patients and distribution of drugs.

The nucleotide sequences of the chloroplast rbcL, matK, and psbA-trnH and nuclear internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions were determined from all species of Viburnum in Korea with multiple accessions to reconstruct the phylogeny and to evaluate the utility of the DNA sequences as DNA barcodes. The results of phylogenetic analyses of the cpDNA and ITS data are consistent with the findings of previous studies of Viburnum. Four morphologically closely related species, V. dilatatum, V. erosum, V. japonicum, and V. wrightii, were included in a strongly supported sister clade of V. koreanum and V. opulus. Viburnum odoratissimum is suggested to be sister to the V. dilatatum/V. koreanum clade in the cpDNA data, while V. odoratissimum is a sister to V. furcatum in the ITS data. Viburnum burejaeticum and V. carlesii are strongly supported as monophyletic. Our analyses of DNA barcode regions from multiple accessions of the species of Viburnum in Korea confirm that six out of ten species in Korea can be discriminated at the species level. The V. dilatatum complex can be separated from the remaining species according to molecular data, but the resolution power to differentiate a species within the complex is weak. This study suggests that regional DNA barcodes are useful for molecular species identification in the case of Viburnum when flowering or fruiting materials are not available.

Pseudohelice subquadrata (Dana, 1851) is endangered due to its restricted habitat; hence, it has been designated as a marine protected species and endangered species by law in Korea. It has been recorded only Jeju-do and Geomun-do, Republic of Korea. The present study, is the first report on a cytochrome c oxidase subunit I DNA barcode for P. subquadrata. The maximum intra-specific genetic distance among all P. subquadrata individuals was found to be 0.5%, whereas inter-genetic distance within the same genus was 17.2-21.5% compared with Helice tientsinensis (Rathbun, 1931), H. tridens (De Haan, 1835), H. epicure (Ng et al., 2018), and Helicana wuana (Rathbun, 1931). Our barcoding data can thus be used as reference for restoration and conservation studies on P. subquadrata, which are designated as marine protected species.

Topological Data Analysis (TDA), a relatively new field of data analysis, has proved very useful in a variety of applications. The main persistence tool from TDA is persistent homology in which data structure is examined at many scales. Representations of persistent homology include persistence barcodes and persistence diagrams, both of which are not straightforward to reconcile with traditional machine learning algorithms as they are sets of intervals or multisets. The problem of faithfully representing barcodes and persistent diagrams has been pursued along two main avenues: kernel methods and vectorizations. One vectorization is the Betti sequence, or Betti curve, derived from the persistence barcode. While the Betti sequence has been used in classification problems in various applications, to our knowledge, the stability of the sequence has never before been discussed. In this paper we show that the Betti sequence is unstable under the 1-Wasserstein metric with regards to small perturbations in the barcode from which it is calculated. In addition, we propose a novel stabilized version of the Betti sequence based on the Gaussian smoothing seen in the Stable Persistence Bag of Words for persistent homology. We then introduce the normalized cumulative Betti sequence and provide numerical examples that support the main statement of the paper.

In Korea, the centipede called "Wang-ji-ne" or "O-gong" is used as an important medicinal resource. This centipede has been known as Scolopendra subspinipes mutilans Koch 1878. Recent studies have assessed its taxonomic treatment in several geographical populations from China, Japan and Taiwan, but not Korea. We therefore attempted to assess exact species status for the Korean population of this subspecies using both morphological and DNA barcode methods. The result inferred from DNA barcoding showed that the Korean population is S. mutilans explicitly separated from S. subspinipes. Within S. mutilans, the Korean population is morphologically identical and genetically closer to the Chinese population rather than island populations of Japan and Taiwan. Particularly, the mainland populations from Korea and China share six haplotypes from 17 despite being far apart geographically.

Barcodes have been widely used to implement automatic identification systems but there are various problems such as security weakness or distance restriction in scanning barcode signals in a barcode-based automatic identifcation systems. Recently researchers are gradually interested in radio frequency identification (RFID) and RFID systems have been applied to various fields than before. Especially one of RFID application fields, a bank system uses RFID tagged bankontes to prevent illegal transactions such as counterfeiting banknotes and money laundering. In this paper, we propose a RFID system for protecting location provacy of a banknote holder. In addition, our paper describes that a trust party can trace a counterfeit banknote holder to provide against emergencies.

To provide better taxonomic information of the genus Nectoneanthes, the two DNA barcode regions of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) sequences of Nectoneanthes oxypoda and N. uchiwa were determined. In addition, the respective sequences of four nereidid species closely related to Nectoneanthes were retrieved from GenBank for comparison and to estimate intra- and inter-specific genetic distances. The aligned sequence lengths of COI and 16S rDNA were 570 bp and 419 bp long, respectively. The mean intraspecific variation in both markers was less than 1% in all species except for that in COI of H. diadroma (1.87%). The mean interspecific variation between N. oxypoda and N. uchiwa was 12.02% regarding COI and 1.85% regarding 16S rDNA. In contrast, the mean interspecific variation between species of other genera was comparably higher(i.e., genus Perinereis: 20.5% in COI and 8.3% in 16S rDNA; genus Hediste: 13.18% in COI and 2.64% in 16S rDNA), compared with that between the two Nectoneanthes species. This result indicated that these Nectoneanthes species are genetically more closely related than other congeneric species of different genera. The DNA barcoding information on Nectoneanthes species generated in this study provides valuable insights for further biodiversity studies on nereidid species.

This study presents a novel DNA part characterization technique that increases throughput by combinatorial DNA part assembly, solid plate-based quantitative fluorescence assay for phenotyping, and barcode tagging-based long-read sequencing for genotyping. We confirmed that the fluorescence intensities of colonies on plates were comparable to fluorescence at the single-cell level from a high-end, flow-cytometry device and developed a high-throughput image analysis pipeline. The barcode tagging-based long-read sequencing technique enabled rapid identification of all DNA parts and their combinations with a single sequencing experiment. Using our techniques, forty-four DNA parts (21 promoters and 23 RBSs) were successfully characterized in 72 h without any automated equipment. We anticipate that this high-throughput and easy-to-use part characterization technique will contribute to increasing part diversity and be useful for building genetic circuits and metabolic pathways in synthetic biology.
