In this paper, we propose how to improve the lack of diversity in collaborative filtering, using tag scores contained in items rather than ratings of items. Collaborative filtering has excellent performance among recommendation system, but it is evaluated as lacking diversity. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a method for supplementing diversity lacking in collaborative filtering by using tags. By using tags that can be used universally without using the characteristics of specific articles in a recommendation system, The proposed method can be used.

A power management controller circuit with switched capacitor mode down regulator and battery charger block for semi-active RFID tags was proposed and fabricated. The main purposes of the proposed switched capacitor mode down regulator and battery charger block are to reduce standby current and to provide a self-controlled thin film battery charger by detecting the received RF power, respectively. Fabricated chip area is $360,000{\mu}m^2$ and measured standby current was about $1.3{\mu}A$. To further reduction of standby current, a wake-up circuit has to be included in the power management controller.

This paper presents a memory efficient tree based anti-collision protocol to identify memoryless RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags that may be attached to products. The proposed deterministic scheme utilizes two bit arrays instead of stack or queue and requires only ${\Theta}(n)$ space, which is better than the earlier schemes that use at least $O(n^2)$ space, where n is the length of a tag ID in a bit. Also, the size n of each bit array is independent of the number of tags to identify. Our simulation results show that our bit array scheme consumes much less memory space than the earlier schemes utilizing queue or stack.

This paper presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of the RFID Guardian, the first-ever unified platform for RFID security and privacy administration. The RFID Guardian resembles an "RFID firewall", enabling individuals to monitor and control access to their RFID tags by combining a standard-issue RFID reader with unique RFID tag emulation capabilities. Our system provides a platform for coordinated usage of RFID security mechanisms, offering fine-grained control over RFID-based auditing, key management, access control, and authentication capabilities. We have prototyped the RFID Guardian using off-the-shelf components, and our experience has shown that active mobile devices are a valuable tool for managing the security of RFID tags in a variety of applications, including protecting low-cost tags that are unable to regulate their own usage.

The focus of this study was to observe the growth of Chlorella vulgaris and Botryococcus braunii under mixotrophic conditions (i.e., added acorn) with the aim of increasing biomass and triacylglycerols (TAGs) content. The result of investigation indicated that the acorn contains a lot of carbonate (87.29%) and glucose (97.99 mg%). A significant growth of biomass was obtained when grown in acorn rich environment comparing to autotrophic conditions. 3 g/L acorn yielded the highest biomass concentration for these strains. Thus, the biomass productivity with 3 g/L acorn was obtained 2.31 times and 2.10 times higher than that of authotrophic conditions for Chlorella vulgaris and Botryococcus braunii, respectively. The maximum amount of TAGs was reached 14.35% and 18.41% for Chlorella vulgaris and Botryococcus braunii, respectively, in the growth medium with 5 g/L acorn. The effect of acorn could enhance the investigated microalgae growth, biomass productivity and TAGs content. This provides a feasible way to reduce the cost of bioenergy production from microalgae.

When tag privacy is required in radio frequency identification (ID) system, a reader needs to identify, and optionally authenticate, a multitude of tags without revealing their IDs. One approach for identification with lightweight tags is that each tag performs pseudo-random function with his unique embedded key. In this case, a reader (or a back-end server) needs to perform a brute-force search for each tag-reader interaction, whose cost gets larger when the number of tags increases. In this paper, we suggest a simple and efficient identification technique that reduces readers computation to $O$(${\sqrt{N}}$ log$N$) without increasing communication cost. Our technique is based on the well-known "meet-in-the-middle" strategy used in the past to attack symmetric ciphers.

We have constructed a cDNA library from the whole body of the spider, Araneus ventricosus. Sequence analysis of randomly selected cDNA clones was performed to obtain genetic information on the spider A. ventricosus, of which genetic information is currently not available. We have partially sequenced randomly selected 385 clones of the cDNA library constructed from A. ventricosus. This expressed sequence tags (EST) analysis revealed 383 genes had high homologies to known genes in GenBank. In this report, 241 independent genes were analyzed in detail.

It is very important to arrange landmarks when a mobile robot needs to measure its own location. So, it has been discussed often how to arrange landmarks in the optimal way until now. We, there, chose the RFID (Radio frequency Identification) tags as landmarks which can be observed by a mobile robot, and demonstrated the possibility of the optimal arrangement of them. For this work first, we defined the optimization problem and its parameters for the arrangement of tags. Second, we proposed the algorithm which can be applied to the optimization problem. Finally we could obtain closely optimal and practical arrangement with the minimum number of landmarks which satisfied the necessary condition by experimentation.

This paper describes a new data-handing, based on a Spatial Human Interface as human indicator, to the Spatial-Knowledge-Tags (SKT) in the spatial memory the Spatial Human Interface (SHI) is a new system that enables us to facilitate human activity in a working environment. The SHI stores human activity data as knowledge and activity history of human into the Spatial Memory in a working environment as three-dimensional space where one acts, and loads them with the Spatial-Knowledge-Tags(SKT) by supporting the enhancement of human activity. To realize this, the purpose of SHI is to construct new relationship among human and distributed networks computers and sensors that is based on intuitive and simultaneous interactions. In this paper, the specified functions of SKT and the realization method of SKT are explained. The utility of SKT is demonstrated in designing a robot motion control.

The use of amorphous magnetic alloys as tags or targets in electronic article surveillance systems such as antishoplifting desvices is briefly reviewed. Improved tags became possible with the discovery in 1988 of asymmetric magnetization reversal (AMR) in certain amorphous alloys annealed in applied field approximately equal to the earth's field. These asymmetric hysteresis loops are highly unusual, if not unique, and so greatly diminish the probability of false alarms in a detection system. furthermore, the jump field Hj, which is the coercive field in negative applied fields, can be controlled over a useful range by controlling the field applied to the sample during annealing. By applying several tags to an object, each with a different jump field, it is possible to identify the object with a numeric code that can be remotely read by nonoptical means.
