Tong-il, the high-yielding rice variety bred on early 1970, effected a turning point in modern rice production in Korea. As rice production reached the highest record yield in 1978 with HYV, Korea achieved self-sufficiency in domestic supply of rice (or the first time in (her own) history, HYV required high input of fertilizers and pesticides for proving its yielding ability and needed new techniques such as early nursery-planting to prevent chilling damage. But, farm economy did not follow the successful achievement of rice production because of increased farming cost and inflation.'Tong-il variety has been replaced by new high-yielding Japonica varieties from 1980 when record-low-temperature during summer months had persisted. Also, the cooked rice of Tong-il variety did not agree with the appetite of Korean people. Though the hectarage of Tong-il rice did reduce, farmers applied the same high-input cultural techniques for new Japonica cultivars as did for Tong-il variety. Heavy application of nitrogen fertilizer contaminated surface and ground water with nitrate ions while phosphorous fertilizer was blamed for algae pollution. Frequent spray of pesticide and herbicide reduced significantly the biotic population in paddy ecosystems including insects and soil microorganisms. The new technologies of the 21st century must be directed to produce safe food, to save natural resources, and to preserve a clean environment for human welfare. We need low-input sustainable farming techniques to provide high-yielding crops and to preserve a healthy ecosystem.

The development of the internet and information management has enabled new applications which include: Electronic medical record (EMR), intelligent transportation, environmental monitoring, etc. In this paper, we design and implement the Continuity Care Record(CCR) Data Stream management server that compiled with DSMS and DBMS in EMR system for processing, monitoring the incoming CCR data stream and storing the processed result with high-efficiency. The proposed system enables users not only to query stored CCR information from DBMS, but also enables to execute continue query for the real-time CCR Data Stream. By using of CCR Viewer Application users can view or update their personal health records even compare self health care records with standard health care records in order to monitor the healthy status, and the on line updating information would be minimized and medical error.

A single specimen of the genus Sillago, collected from Gwangyang, Korea, in May 2009, is characterized by XI first dorsal fin spines, 3 or 4 rows of melanophore pattern along the second dorsal fin membrane, and a darkish posterior margin of the caudal fin. Our specimen was identified as Sillago sinica reported as a new species; this identification is confirmed by mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase subunit I sequences, which show that our specimen corresponds to S. sinica (d=0.000) and differs from the congeneric species Sillago parvisquamis (d=0.170). Comparisons of Korean specimens previously reported as S. parvisquamis with specimens of S. sinica show that the S. parvisquamis specimens are actually S. sinica. We propose the new Korean name "buk-bang-jeom-bo-ri-myeol" for S. sinica.

Two specimens of Sardinella lemuru Bleeker, 1853 were collected for the first time from the adjacent waters of Cheju Island, Korea, in March 1997. S. lemuru is very similar to S. zunasi (Bleeker, 1854) in external features but differs in the number of anal fin rays. While S. lemuru is difficult to differentiate by color from Clupea pallasii valenciennes, 1847 the two are easily differentiated by their gill raker counts. We propose "Bali-paen-dang-i" as a new Korean name for S. lemuru.

A single specimen of Symphorus nematophorus (481.0 mm in SL), belonging to the family Lutjanidae, was firstly collected by a set net in the coastal waters of Geojae Island, located in south sea of Korea on August 1, 2014. This specimen was characterized by having the anterior dorsal soft rays produced into filaments, a pit between eye and nostril, no tooth on vomer, and nine longitudinal blue strips on both sides of the body. We propose a new Korean name, "Sil-tung-dom-sok" and "Sil-tung-dom" for the genus and species, respectively.

A single juvenile pomacentrid specimen (5.9 mm standard length) was collected from the Korea Strait in October 2010. The specimen is characterized by punctate-stellate melanophores scattered on the operculum and dorso-ventral region in front of the caudal peduncle, the lack of melanophores on the posterior end of the anal fin base, the presence of 14 spines and 14 soft rays on the dorsal fin, and the presence of 2 spines and 12 soft rays on the anal fin. A molecular analysis based on mitochondrial DNA 16S rRNA sequences showed that this specimen is closely related to adult Chromis mirationis (d = 0.002), but that it differs from Chromis notata (d = 0.017). Juvenile C. mirationis differ from juvenile C. notata in having no melanophores on the posterior end of the anal fin base. We propose a new Korean name, "tti-ja-ri-dom" for C. mirationis.

A single specimen (506 mm SL) of Gempylus serpens, belonging to the family Gempylidae, order Perciformes, was firstly collected from Jeju Island, Korea in April 2013. This specimen was characterized by having the lower jaw protruded than upper jaw; three big fangs on upper jaw; five dorsal finlets and seven anal finlets; two lateral lines split at the dorsal origin, upper line interrupted at the end of the first dorsal fin, but lower line extend to the caudal fin base. The new Korean name "Se-jang-gal-chi-ggo-chi-sok" is proposed for the genus Gempylus, and "Se-jang-gal-chi-ggo-chi" for the species G. serpens.

This is the first report of Lactoria diaphana (Tetraodontiformes: Ostraciide) from Korea. A single specimen (208.0 mm standard length) was collected off the coast of Jejudo Island by gill net on 14 November, 2011. This species is characterized by having a pair of strong spines in front of the eyes, a slightly curved spine on the dorsal ridge, a pair of strong and short spines on the ventro-lateral ridge and various-sized spots on the body. We add L. diaphana to the Korean fish fauna and propose a new Korean name, "So-ppul-bok" for the species.

Earlier taxonomic studies of Korean Scutellaria reported a new record of Scutellaria hastifolia L. in Korea based on three herbarium sheets. During a reexamination of these specimens, we found that the leaf characters of these specimens differ from those in the type specimen of S. hastifolia. Based on a literature survey and confirmation of the type specimen, the specimens identified as S. hastifolia thus far were a misidentification of S. barbata D. Don. S. hastifolia is clearly different from S. barbata by single conspicuous teeth on both sides of the leaf margins and larger leaves. In addition to the distribution sites of the three specimens used in the previous study, a distribution site of the S. barbata was newly found in the southern part of Korea. In this study, we report a new distribution of S. barbata in Korea, correct a previous report of S. hastifolia, describe the morphological characters of S. barbata, and suggest a taxonomic key to Korean Scutellaria including S. barbata.
