- Abstract
- The computer software package CDS/ISIS is suitable for the storage and retrieval of structured, text-oriented information, such as bibliographic descriptions. Versions exist for various hardware including IBM microcomputers and compatibles. The software is very attractive, mainly because it is powerful and because the producer, Unesco, normally fulfils requests to use it for free. Micro CDS/ISIS is reviewed in this paper which includes recent experience with version 2.3

- Presents a guide to evaluating commercial text search and retrieval programs. Gives an overview of text searching and discusses operating environments, features commonly found in commercial text-search packages, and features that distinguish one text-search from each other e.g. platforms, size of database, query-formulation capabiblities, hypertext capabilities, real-time data-entry and classification, and browsing aids

- Abstract
- During 1994, Dataware Technologies acquired the BRS/SEARCH text retrieval package from InfoPro Technologies, as well as exclusive worldwide marketing rights for the Total Recall application programming interface from Kinesis. The products are now being used to create information management applications which offer users the best of 2 very different worlds: the processing power of the relational database, together with the content based searching facilities of a text retrieval system. Discusses the advantages of this, noting also that the package can be used in setting up WWW sites

- Abstract
- Personal Bibliographic Systems (PBS) manage the input, storage, retrieval, and output of bibliographic references. The software allows for references to a number of different document types such as journal articles, books, book chapters, dissertations, reports, unpublished papers, electronic documents, etc. Unlike general-purpose database management packages, PBS are made for bibliographic information, featuring a variety of import profiles for records downloaded from the major international databases, and the automatic generation of dozens of different output styles, including those used by the world's leading scientific journals. Modern PBS are thoroughly integrated with word processors. The software provides for the import, storage, retrieval, and output of World Wide Web-based information. This survey focuses on the various options and characteristics of PBS. Special attention is paid to structural flexibility, retrieval options, input, display, and output formats.

- Abstract
- Reports a review of current and planned developments of the leading suppliers of text retrieval software, aimed at trying to establish trends in the industry. The products evaluated are those from minicomputer and mainframe computer backgrounds and can be best described as fully functional text information management systems, the majority of which operate in inverted file structures which index every word. The survey was conducted by means of interviews with senior executives of the suppliers concerned and the suppliers and systems reviewed were: Information Dimensions (BASISplus); BRS Dataware (BRS/Search); Excalibur Technologies (EFS); Status/IQ (Status/IQ); and Verity (TOPIC)

- Abstract
- Information processing is concerned with the representation, storage, organization and access of data. In the case of online databases, it is expected that the information should be retrieved as fast as possible. The query time depends upon how the information has been stored in the database, that is the record structure and associated indexes, as well as the file organization. Based on these concepts, information retrieval software has been developed at the Indian National Scientific Documentation Centre (INSDOC) for bibliographic databases. Describes the salient features of this software

- Abstract
- Reports the results of a study, conducted at the National Technical Information Centre and Library (OMIKK), Hungary, to compare 5 popular proprietary CD-ROM searching software packages: OPTIWARE; BRS/Search; ProQuest; SPIRS; and Dialog OnDisc Manager. Software evaluation was based on analysis of a range of CD-ROM bibliographic databases (with the exception of BRS/Search for which the library held no bibliographic databases) and focused on: response times for various activities (logging on, searching, retrieval, display); other performance factors; direct searching features (Boolean operators, proximity operators, arithmetic relations, truncation); index browsing; search strategy handling; display possibilities; output possibilities; and ergonomic and user friendliness factors. No general conclusions are drawn and users are left to draw their own conclusions
