3. ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 31 Structure
Dealing with Automatic Identification and Data Capture
WG1 (data carriers) deals with data carrier specifications and related documentation for linear and 2-dimensional barcode symbologies.
WG2 (data structure) deals with data structures for the process of automatic identification and data capture. (ex. ISO/IEC Unique identifier for transport units)
WG3 (conformance) deals with conformance standards.
WG4 deals with RFID issues for item management.

4. WG 4 Structure WG4 target application models WG4 structure
Business-purposes application models such as SCM, transportation, inventory management, etc.
WG4 structure
SG1
data encoding and application interface standards such as ISO/IEC 15961, 15962, and
SG2
unique identification standard of RFID tags, ISO/IEC
SG3
air interface standards such as ISO/IEC x series.
SG5
RFID implementation guidelines such as ISO/IEC 24729

5. Mobile RFID Ad-hoc (1/4) “Mobile RFID” standardization initiative
WG4 meeting was held in Washington DC, USA, March 27.
“Mobile RFID” standardization initiative was proposed, aiming at covering B2C-type RFID application models.
Ad-hoc group was created to prepare for
ToR
Work items
Gap analysis for new work items, extension issues and re-used standards
Review of other SDO activities
Cooperation topics

6. Mobile RFID Ad-hoc (2/4)
“Mobile RFID” standardization initiative (cont’d)
Ad-hoc group proposed WG4 SG6 or WG6.
For WG 4/SG 6 in the area of mobile RFID
- RF profile for mobile RFID
- Mobile RFID service models
- Uniform identifier naming
- Application data format for mobile RFID services
- Conformance test specifications
Cooperative development between WG 4/SG 6 and other SDOs:
- Common API sets, (with JCP)
- DNS & NAPTR Extensions, (with IETF)
- X.500, X.520 extensions, (with JTC 1/SC 6 and ITU-T SG17)
- Mobile RFID service gateway architecture, (with ITU-T SG16)
- Multi-UII resolution architecture, (with ITU-T SG16)
- Adult verification, (with OMA)
- Tag password acquisition protocol for mobile RFID services, (with ITU-T SG17)
For WG 4/SG 6 in the area of sensor networks
- Sensor-field to sink communications; Transmission media
- Transport protocol; Anti-collision; Fault tolerance
- TEDS, (with IEEE)

8. Mobile RFID Ad-hoc (4/4)
“Mobile RFID” standardization initiative (cont’d)
WG4 meeting was held in Pretoria, South Africa, June 7.
ORM (Optical Readable Media) is out of scope of WG4. WG 4/SG 6 cannot be established.
WG4 cannot determine WG6.
It was recommended SC31 take care for this issue.

9. MIIM Ad-hoc (1/2) SC31 meeting Held in Pretoria, South Africa, June 8.
It established MIIM (Mobile item identification and management in support of consumer applications) ad-hoc group.
Ad-hoc group ToR
ToR for the new WG
Work items
Gap analysis for new work items, extension issues and re-used standards
Review of other SDO activities
Cooperation topics

10. MIIM Ad-hoc (2/2) MIIM Ad-hoc meeting
Will be held in Seoul, October 30~31.
Contributions are welcomed.
