Abstract

Although the 'information poor' are already present, the arrival of a much greater gap between the 'information poor' and 'information rich' is forecast in the book: Sovereign individual, by J.D. Davidson and W. Rees-Mogg. Concludes that, if the events forecast in the book come about, there will not be an information society but an unacceptable society

Abstract

Follows up the common assertion that consumer services will be the major driving force for the information superhighway by discussing the social and political factors likely to influence the rate of progress and the role of major consumer entertainment and information applications. Considers the trends in interactive television and system requirements for 'movies on demand', particularly in university department. Concludes that successful services offered at a price leading to mass demand will be slow in arriving

Abstract

Discusses aspects of the Electronic Library and Visual Information Research (ELVIRA 2) Conference held at De Montfort University in May 95, focusing on those parts of it relating to image indexing, processing and transmission. The arrival of the technology has awakened the interest of libraries in images, a form of information neglected in computer based systems, mainly on account of the large file size required. Suggests that a viable marketable service is now on the horizon, particularly if the images are motion video

Abstract

Discusses the possible role for librarians and information scientists on corporate Intranets, suggesting that information professionals may need to make a foceful case if they want to be fully involved.

Abstract

Discusses problems of information overload and of devising a means to retrieve items of interest at a later date. Describes software agents and considers whether they are capable of development to the point where they could search the WWW and retrieve items rank ordered by personal interests. Suggests that although a good deal of research is being done with this end in view, there appears to be little as yet in the way of usable products, and nothing that meets this author's specific needs

Abstract

Discusses the Web of Science database recently introduced by ISI, and which is compiled from 8.000 journals covered in the SCI, SSCI and AHCI. Briefly compares the database with the Citation Indexes as provided by the BIDS service at the University of Bath. Explores the characteristics and usefulness of the WoS through a search of it for articles on the topic of image retrieval by shape matching. Suggests that the selection of articles of interest is much easier and far quicker using the WoS than other methods of conducting a search using ISI's data
