Abstract

Information is essential to all human activity, and information in electronic form both amplifies and augments human information interactions. This lecture surveys some of the different classical meanings of information, focuses on the ways that electronic technologies are affecting how we think about these senses of information, and introduces an emerging sense of information that has implications for how we work, play, and interact with others. The evolutions of computers and electronic networks and people's uses and adaptations of these tools manifesting a dynamic space called cyberspace. Our traces of activity in cyberspace give rise to a new sense of information as instantaneous identity states that I term proflection of self. Proflections of self influence how others act toward us. Four classical senses of information are described as context for this new form of information. The four senses selected for inclusion here are the following: thought and memory, communication process, artifact, and energy. Human mental activity and state (thought and memory) have neurological, cognitive, and affective facets.The act of informing (communication process) is considered from the perspective of human intentionality and technical developments that have dramatically amplified human communication capabilities. Information artifacts comprise a common sense of information that gives rise to a variety of information industries. Energy is the most general sense of information and is considered from the point of view of physical, mental, and social state change. This sense includes information theory as a measurable reduction in uncertainty. This lecture emphasizes how electronic representations have blurred media boundaries and added computational behaviors that yield new forms of information interaction, which, in turn, are stored, aggregated, and mined to create profiles that represent our cyber identities.

Abstract

The Architecture of Cyberspace is aimed at students taking information management as a minor in their course as well as those who manage document collections but who are not professional librarians. The first part of this book looks at how users find documents and the problems they have; the second part discusses how to manage the information space using various tools such as classification and controlled vocabularies. It also explores the general issues of publishing, including legal considerations, as well the main issues of creating and managing archives. Supported by exercises and discussion questions at the end of each chapter, the book includes some sample assignments suitable for use with students of this subject. A glossary is also provided to help readers understand the specialised vocabulary and the key concepts in the design and assessment of information spaces.

Abstract

LIS professionals use structures for organizing knowledge when they catalog and classify objects in the collection, when they develop databases, when they design customized taxonomies, or when they search online. Structures for Organizing Knowledge: Exploring Taxonomies, Ontologies, and Other Schema explores and explains this basic function by looking at three questions: 1) How do we organize objects so that they make sense and are useful? 2) What role do categories, classifications, taxonomies, and other structures play in the process of organizing? 3) What do information professionals need to know about organizing behaviors in order to design useful structures for organizing knowledge? Taking a broad, yet specialized approach that is a first in the field, this book answers those questions by examining three threads: traditional structures for organizing knowledge; personal structures for organizing knowledge; and socially-constructed structures for organizing knowledge. Through these threads, it offers avenues for expanding thinking on classification and classification schemes, taxonomy and ontology development, and structures. Both a history of the development of taxonomies and an analysis of current research, theories, and applications, this volume explores a wide array of topics, including the new digital, social aspect of taxonomy development. Examples of subjects covered include: Formal and informal structures Applications of knowledge structures Classification schemes Early taxonomists and their contributions Social networking, bookmarking, and cataloging sites Cataloging codes Standards and best practices Tags, tagging, and folksonomies Descriptive cataloging Metadata schema standards Thought exercises, references, and a list of helpful websites augment each section. A final chapter, "Thinking Ahead: Are We at a Crossroads?" uses "envisioning exercises" to help LIS professionals look into the future.

Abstract

This book looks at the key skills that are required in organizations in the information intensive society; it also examines the power of information behaviour on the construction of different kinds of shared knowledge and social identity in a group. The book introduces the different dimensions of social capital that is structural and cognitive, and looks at the relational aspects of information behaviour in organizations. This book analyses experiences with two different case studies - in the financial and biotechnology industries - in order to gain additional insights in how the internal organization environment should be designed to support the development of the organization's intellectual capital. Key Features 1. Introduces social capital dimensions to the knowledge management framework 2. Provides empirical work on the new combination of social capital and organizational information behaviour. 3. Two different information sharing practices are presented: a claims handling unit (routine based work) and a biotechnology firm (expert work) 4. Develops social capital measures into qualitative information research 5.The book illustrates the importance of social aspects in ma She has worked as a visiting researcher at Napier University, Edinburgh, 2004-05. Her teaching and research concerns information seeking, information management in business organizations, and aspects of social capital and knowledge sharing in groups and organizations. She has published several articles and papers in these areas. Readership The book is aimed at academics and students at all levels in library and information science, as well as information management and knowledge management practitioners and managers interested in managing information and knowledge effectively.Contents Part 1: Theories of Information Sharing Information sharing in context Patterns of sharing - enablers and barriers Social navigation Part II: Two Practices in Information Sharing Introducing the two cases Claims handlers Expert organisation Part III: Insights into Information, Knowledge Sharing and Social Capital Dimensions of social capital in the two cases Social capital and sharing - building structures for knowledge sharing and its management Importance of the awareness of social capital in connection with information and knowledge sharing in today's companies.

Rez. in: Mitt VÖB 60(2007) H.4, S.95-97 (O. Oberhauser): "Die Autorin ist Dozentin am Institut für Informationswissenschaft der Åbo Akademi University (Finnland) und vertritt zur Zeit den dort vakanten Lehrstuhl. Ihr vorliegendes Buch geht zumindest teilweise auf einen längeren Forschungsaufenthalt an der Napier University, Edinburgh, zurück, wo die informationswissenschaftlich orientierte Forschung am Centre for Social Informatics, welches zum dortigen Fachbereich Informatik zählt, angesiedelt ist. Social informatics (nicht zu verwechseln mit Sozialinformatik, einem Terminus aus dem Gebiet der Sozialen Arbeit), bezieht sich auf die disziplinübergreifende Beschäftigung mit dem Design, dem Einsatz und der Verwendung von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien und ihrer Interaktion mit institutionellen und kulturellen Kontexten unter Einschluss von Institutionen/Organisationen und der Gesellschaft. Sie wird von Vertretern verschiedener Wissenschaftsdisziplinen mit unterschiedlichen Themenstellungen bzw. methodischen Ansätzen betrieben. In diesem Umfeld ist auch das vorliegende Buch beheimatet. Zwar ist "information sharing" ein Begriff, der aus der Forschung zu dem breiteren Themenbereich "information seeking and use" bzw. "(human) information behaviour" stammt, doch macht schon der erste Satz des Vorworts klar, dass hier eine thematische Festlegung auf den institutionellen Bereich und damit eine Einordnung in das Gebiet des Wissensmanagements erfolgt ist: "How can organisations correspond to the current demands of effective information and knowledge sharing?" (p. ix). Die Herausforderungen ("challenges") werden im Hinblick auf das Verständnis, die Organisation und die Verwaltung von Wissen gesehen und in technische, betriebliche, persönliche und soziale Aspekte unterteilt. Die Konzentration auf die soziale Dimension, so die Autorin, sei heute besonders wichtig für eine kohärente Beurteilung von Informationsverhalten und -austausch im Unternehmen.
Das Buch gliedert sich in drei Teile. Im ersten Abschnitt, Theories of Information Sharing, erfolgt eine kurze Diskussion von Begriffen und Konzepten aus dem Bereich der kontextuellen Informationssuche, der Information im organisatorischen Umfeld, der Sozial- und Gruppenpsychologie, sowie vor allem die Einführung des Konzeptes "social capital" (soziales Kapital, Sozialkapital), eines aus der Soziologie stammenden theoretischen Ansatzes, als Rahmen für die Betrachtung der Informationsprozesse im Unternehmen. Hier wird Sozialkapital verstanden als die Werte, Normen und Netzwerke, die informationsbezogene Interaktionen möglich und wirksam machen und so die Basis für kollaborative Arbeit zur Verfolgung gemeinsamer Ziele schaffen (p. 30). Der zweite Teil - umfangmässig der größte des Buches - ist mit Two Practices in Information Sharing überschrieben und berichtet detailliert über Fallstudien, die die Autorin in zwei finnischen Unternehmen mittels einer kleinen Zahl qualitativer Interviews durchführte. Dabei wird eine Firma aus der Versicherungsbranche (als einer eher stabilen Branche) mit einem biotechnologischen Produktionsbetrieb (eher turbulent-expansives Umfeld) verglichen. Im dritten Teil, Insights into Information, Knowledge Sharing and Social Capital, diskutiert die Autorin die Resultate ihrer Erhebung, insbesondere im theoretischen Kontext des Sozialkapitals - so etwa die Motive für den Austausch von Informationen und Wissen. Natürlich wird Widén-Wulffs Studie vor allem jene interessieren, die sich mit dem betrieblichen Informations- und Wissensmanagement beschäftigen. Für Interessenten an "information seeking and retrieval" oder "human information behaviour" im Allgemeinen ist das Buch nur bedingt zu empfehlen, doch werden auch sie von den Hinweisen auf den überblicksartig gestreiften Forschungsstand profitieren können. Hingegen werden Rezipienten aus den klassischeren Bereichen des Bibliotheks- bzw. Informationswesens die Lektüre vermutlich als weniger leicht verdaulich empfinden. Der Ladenpreis von mehr als 55 Euro ist für einen Broschurband von knapp 230 Seiten im übrigen viel zu hoch."

Abstract

Class-tested and coherent, this textbook teaches information retrieval, including web search, text classification, and text clustering from basic concepts. Ideas are explained using examples and figures, making it perfect for introductory courses in information retrieval for advanced undergraduates and graduate students. Slides and additional exercises are available for lecturers. - This book provides what Salton and Van Rijsbergen both failed to achieve. Even more important, unlike some other books in IR, the authors appear to care about making the theory as accessible as possible to the reader, on occasion including short primers to certain topics or choosing to explain difficult concepts using simplified approaches. Its coverage [is] excellent, the quality of writing high and I was surprised how much I learned from reading it. I think the online resources are impressive.

Abstract

"How to Build a Digital Library" is the only book that offers all the knowledge and tools needed to construct and maintain a digital library, regardless of the size or purpose. It is the perfectly self-contained resource for individuals, agencies, and institutions wishing to put this powerful tool to work in their burgeoning information treasuries. The second edition reflects new developments in the field as well as in the Greenstone Digital Library open source software. In Part I, the authors have added an entire new chapter on user groups, user support, collaborative browsing, user contributions, and so on. There is also new material on content-based queries, map-based queries, cross-media queries. There is an increased emphasis placed on multimedia by adding a 'digitizing' section to each major media type. A new chapter has also been added on 'internationalization', which will address Unicode standards, multi-language interfaces and collections, and issues with non-European languages (Chinese, Hindi, etc.). Part II, the software tools section, has been completely rewritten to reflect the new developments in Greenstone Digital Library Software, an internationally popular open source software tool with a comprehensive graphical facility for creating and maintaining digital libraries. As with the First Edition, a web site, implemented as a digital library, will accompany the book and provide access to color versions of all figures, two online appendices, a full-text sentence-level index, and an automatically generated glossary of acronyms and their definitions. In addition, demonstration digital library collections will be included to demonstrate particular points in the book. To access the online content please visit our associated website. This title outlines the history of libraries - both traditional and digital - and their impact on present practices and future directions. It is written for both technical and non-technical audiences and covers the entire spectrum of media, including text, images, audio, video, and related XML standards. It is web-enhanced with software documentation, color illustrations, full-text index, source code, and more.

Abstract

Dieses Lehrbuch für Studierende der Wirtschaftswissenschaften im Grundstudium bzw. in Bachelor-Studiengängen behandelt umfassend die betriebswirtschaftlichen und methodischen Grundlagen des Produktionsfaktors Information. Information ist im betrieblichen Kontext konkretisiert durch die Ressource Daten. Das Buch vermittelt anschaulich Prozesse (wie entstehen Daten?), Strukturen (wie sind Daten systematisiert und aufgebaut?) und Inhalte (was bedeuten die Daten betriebswirtschaftlich?). Es verwendet UML 2.0 als grafische Sprache und erläutert die grundlegenden Konzepte von XML. Die umfangreichen Beispiele basieren auf realen betrieblichen Fällen.

Footnote

Rez. in IWP 58(2007) H.5/6, S.382 (W. Ratzek): "Bereits im Vorwort betont Thorsten Spitta - mit Bezug auf Heinen: "Es scheint an der Zeit, den Produktionsfaktor Information als Grundlage wieder in die Betriebswirtschaftslehre aufzunehmen (...)". Dieser Bezug, so Spitta, fehle in fast allen betrieblichen Einführungen. Die Konsequenz darauf sei, dass "Information" keine Basis mehr habe. Dieses Vorhaben weckt natürlich auch das Interesse von BID-Studierenden und -Professional, da offenbar beide Professionen (BID und BWL) das Arbeitsgebiet "Informationswirtschaft" bearbeiten. Ebenfalls im Vorwort stellt Spitta die Rolle von Software und Daten heraus: "Während Software sich mit der Zeit verändert oder ausgetauscht wird, sind die Daten eine langfristig zu pflegende Ressource jedes Unternehmens." Die Qualität der Datenbasis ist, nach Spitta, ein wichtiger Baustein, um ein Unternehmen erfolgreich zu führen. Somit wird das Qualitätsniveau dieser Ressource - ob nun Daten oder Information genannt - zu einem Produktionsfaktor. Etwas, so Spitta, was man nicht kaufen könne wie z.B. Software. Für den BID-Interessierten sollte nun die Frage nach dem Unterschied von Daten und Information folgen. In den Kapiteln 3 "Daten" und 4 "Kommunikation, Information und Wissen" geht Spitta dieser Frage nach. "Daten" werden, wie in der Informatik üblich und durchaus sinnvoll, als Alphabet definiert, das heißt als ein Zeichenvorrat, für den eine Verarbeitungsvorschrift definiert ist. (S. 25-28) Kommunikation ist, vereinfacht dargestellt, dann das Senden und Empfangen von Nachrichten (basierend auf einem mehr oder weniger deckungsgleichen Zeichenvorrat). Die in der betriebswirtschaftlichen Praxis gängige Definition von W. Wittmann, dass Information "zweckorientiertes Wissen" sei, lehnt Spitta ab, "da sie einen unscharfen Begriff durch einen anderen erklärt, der noch unschärfer ist" (S. 45).
Stattdessen präferiert er in erster Näherung A. Endres' Definition, die auch von vielen Wirtschaftsinformatikern - und auch von BID-Fachleuten - akzeptiert wird: "Information, so Spitta, sind interpretierbare, d.h. mit Bedeutung verknüpfte, meist neue Nachrichten, die von einem Empfänger für das Verfolgen seiner Ziele als nützlich gewertet werden." (S. 44, Hervor. i. Org.). Damit kann sich Spitta jedoch noch nicht begnügen, da er Bezug zur Informatik, insbesondere jedoch zur Wirtschaftsinformatik oder Informationswirtschaft herstellen muss. A. Endres definiert Information als ein Tripel I = (A*, S, K), "wobei A* (...) eine Menge von Wörtern (...) über einem Alphabet A, S eine Menge von Symbolen und K einen Kontext bedeutet" (S. 45) "Information", so Spitta, wäre dann "eine Nachricht über einem definierten Alphabet und anderen Symbolen, die für den Empfänger neu und relevant ist und deren Kontext er kennt." (S. 45) In der betrieblichen Praxis sind jedoch mehrere Akteure involviert, sodass es sinnvoll ist "Datenspeicher als Puffer für Nachrichten" (S. 46) einzuführen. Nun fehlt noch eine Definition von Wissen, um betriebliche Prozesse computergestützt abzubilden. "Wissen ist wegen seiner impliziten Bestandteile ebenso individualisiert wie Information. Explizites Wissen basiert auf Daten. Implizites Wissen kann explizit gemacht werden, wenn wir über einen allgemein verstehbaren Formalismus zur Beschreibung verfügen. Der Unterschied zur Information ist die Handlungskompetenz und die mehrfache Verwendbarkeit der zur Grunde liegenden Daten, die im Allgemeinen nur einmal (individuelle) Information sein können." (S. 50, Hervor. i. Orig.) Im Kapitel 5 stehen die "Inhalte betrieblicher Daten" im Mittelpunkt, wo es unter anderem um Grunddaten (wie Sachanlagen), Vorgangsdaten (wie aufzeichnungspflichtige Vorgänge) oder abgeleitete Daten (wie Führungsinformation) geht. Das 6. Kapitel "Die Struktur betrieblicher Daten" geht auf verschiedene Datenmodelle, wie das Relationsmodell, das grafische Objektmodell oder das Vorgehensmodell zur Datenmodellierung ein. Im 7. Kapitel geht es um "Anwendungssysteme", d.h. um betriebliche Informationssysteme und deren Strukturierungsmöglichkeiten.
Ein betriebliches Informationssystem besteht aus einem Aufgabenträger, der sowohl aus einer maschinellen (Software und Daten) als auch einer menschlichen (Datenerzeuger und Entscheider) Komponente besteht. (S. 107f.) "Datenverantwortung und Organisation" im Mittelpunkt erörtert Spitta im vorletzten Kapitel. Hier werden unter anderem behandelt: "Zugriffsrechte als Pflichten" (Benutzerverwaltung), "Pflege von Grunddaten", "Erzeugung von Vorgangsdaten" oder "Abgeleitete Daten" (mittels SQL). Den Abschluss bildet das Kapitel "Die absehbare Zukunft: Grundidee von XML", wobei die folgenden drei Einsatzgebiete besprochen werden: "Die Formulierung von strukturierten Daten zwecks einfacher Kommunikation. Die Behandlung semistrukturierter Daten mit einem zu archivierenden Layout. Die Abbildung der Struktur von Dokumenten." (S. 139) Thorsten Spittas Informationswirtschaft "vermittelt", wie es auf dem Klappentext heißt, "anschaulich Prozesse (wie entstehen Daten), Strukturen (wie sind Daten systematisiert) und Inhalte (wie sind Daten systematisiert und aufgebaut). Fragestellungen, die auch BIDProfessionals beschäftigten. Eine sinnvolle Ergänzung wäre die induktive Herangehensweise (Basis Daten) mit der deduktiven Herangehensweise (z.B. Kundensicht) zu verbinden, was in Klaus Norths "Wissensorientierter Unternehmensführung" (Wiesbaden 2005) überzeugend in Angriff genommen wird. Da Prof. Dr.-Ing. Thorsten Spitta den Lehrstuhl für Angewandte Informatik/ Wirtschaftsinformatik an der Universität Bielefeld innehat, wählt er konsequenterweise, das Informatik-Paradigma, zeigt sich aber - zumindest in den Kapiteln 3 (Daten) und 4 (Kommunikation, Information und Wissen) informiert darüber, dass es auch andere Sichten der Informations- und Wissensgenerierung gibt. "Informationswirtschaft" ist auch für jene bestens geeignet, die nur über geringe SQL-, UML oder XML-Kenntnisse verfügen. 48 Abbildungen, 35 Tabellen, abschnittsweise Zusammenfassungen und ein ausführliches Sachverzeichnis ermöglichen auch einen schnellen Einblick in bestimmte Aspekte der betrieblichen Informationswirtschaft."

Abstract

In this title, a leading philosopher of the internet explains how knowledge and expertise can still work - and even grow stronger - in an age when the internet has made topics simply Too Big to Know. Knowing used to be so straightforward. If we wanted to know something we looked it up, asked an expert, gathered the facts, weighted the possibilities, and honed in on the best answer ourselves. But, ironically, with the advent of the internet and the limitless information it contains, we're less sure about what we know, who knows what, or even what it means to know at all. Knowledge, it would appear, is in crisis. And yet, while its very foundations seem to be collapsing, human knowledge has grown in previously unimaginable ways, and in inconceivable directions, in the Internet age. We fact-check the news media more closely and publicly than ever before. Science is advancing at an unheard of pace thanks to new collaborative techniques and new ways to find patterns in vast amounts of data. Businesses are finding expertise in every corner of their organization, and across the broad swath of their stakeholders. We are in a crisis of knowledge at the same time that we are in an epochal exaltation of knowledge. In "Too Big to Know", Internet philosopher David Weinberger explains that, rather than a systemic collapse, the Internet era represents a fundamental change in the methods we have for understanding the world around us. Weinberger argues that our notions of expertise - what it is, how it works, and how it is cultivated - are out of date, rooted in our pre-networked culture and assumptions. For thousands of years, we've relied upon a reductionist process of filtering, winnowing, and otherwise reducing the complex world to something more manageable in order to understand it. Back then, an expert was someone who had mastered a particular, well-defined domain. Now, we live in an age when topics are blown apart and stitched together by momentary interests, diverse points of view, and connections ranging from the insightful to the perverse. Weinberger shows that, while the limits of our own paper-based tools have historically prevented us from achieving our full capacity of knowledge, we can now be as smart as our new medium allows - but we will be smart differently. For the new medium is a network, and that network changes our oldest, most basic strategy of knowing. Rather than knowing-by-reducing, we are now knowing-by-including. Indeed, knowledge now is best thought of not as the content of books or even of minds, but as the way the network works. Knowledge will never be the same - not for science, not for business, not for education, not for government, not for any of us. As Weinberger makes clear, to make sense of this new system of knowledge, we need - and smart companies are developing - networks that are themselves experts. Full of rich and sometimes surprising examples from history, politics, business, philosophy, and science, "Too Big to Know" describes how the very foundations of knowledge have been overturned, and what this revolution means for our future.

Abstract

The main purpose of this book is to sum up the vital and highly topical research issue of knowledge representation on the Web and to discuss novel solutions by combining benefits of folksonomies and Web 2.0 approaches with ontologies and semantic technologies. This book contains an overview of knowledge representation approaches in past, present and future, introduction to ontologies, Web indexing and in first case the novel approaches of developing ontologies. This title combines aspects of knowledge representation for both the Semantic Web (ontologies) and the Web 2.0 (folksonomies). Currently there is no monographic book which provides a combined overview over these topics. focus on the topic of using knowledge representation methods for document indexing purposes. For this purpose, considerations from classical librarian interests in knowledge representation (thesauri, classification schemes etc.) are included, which are not part of most other books which have a stronger background in computer science.

Abstract

Unternehmen sehen sich heutzutage regelmäßig der Herausforderung gegenübergestellt, aus umfangreichen Mengen an Dokumenten schnell relevante Informationen zu identifizieren. Dabei zeigt sich jedoch, dass Suchverfahren, die lediglich syntaktische Abgleiche von Informationsbedarfen mit potenziell relevanten Dokumenten durchführen, häufig nicht die an sie gestellten Erwartungen erfüllen. Viel versprechendes Potenzial bietet hier der Einsatz von Ontologien für das Information Retrieval. Beim ontologiebasierten Information Retrieval werden Ontologien eingesetzt, um Wissen in einer Form abzubilden, die durch Informationssysteme verarbeitet werden kann. Eine Berücksichtigung des so explizierten Wissens durch Suchalgorithmen führt dann zu einer optimierten Deckung von Informationsbedarfen. Jan Hermans stellt in seinem Buch ein adaptives Referenzmodell für die Entwicklung von ontologiebasierten Information Retrieval-Systemen vor. Zentrales Element seines Modells ist die einsatzkontextspezifische Adaption des Retrievalprozesses durch bewährte Techniken, die ausgewählte Aspekte des ontologiebasierten Information Retrievals bereits effektiv und effizient unterstützen. Die Anwendung des Referenzmodells wird anhand eines Fallbeispiels illustriert, bei dem ein Information Retrieval-System für die Suche nach Open Source-Komponenten entwickelt wird. Das Buch richtet sich gleichermaßen an Dozenten und Studierende der Wirtschaftsinformatik, Informatik und Betriebswirtschaftslehre sowie an Praktiker, die die Informationssuche im Unternehmen verbessern möchten.

Abstract

Why we organize our personal digital data the way we do and how design of new PIM systems can help us manage our information more efficiently. Each of us has an ever-growing collection of personal digital data: documents, photographs, PowerPoint presentations, videos, music, emails and texts sent and received. To access any of this, we have to find it. The ease (or difficulty) of finding something depends on how we organize our digital stuff. In this book, personal information management (PIM) experts Ofer Bergman and Steve Whittaker explain why we organize our personal digital data the way we do and how the design of new PIM systems can help us manage our collections more efficiently.

Content

Bergman and Whittaker report that many of us use hierarchical folders for our personal digital organizing. Critics of this method point out that information is hidden from sight in folders that are often within other folders so that we have to remember the exact location of information to access it. Because of this, information scientists suggest other methods: search, more flexible than navigating folders; tags, which allow multiple categorizations; and group information management. Yet Bergman and Whittaker have found in their pioneering PIM research that these other methods that work best for public information management don't work as well for personal information management. Bergman and Whittaker describe personal information collection as curation: we preserve and organize this data to ensure our future access to it. Unlike other information management fields, in PIM the same user organizes and retrieves the information. After explaining the cognitive and psychological reasons that so many prefer folders, Bergman and Whittaker propose the user-subjective approach to PIM, which does not replace folder hierarchies but exploits these unique characteristics of PIM.

Abstract

Kollaborative Informationsdienste im Web 2.0 werden von den Internetnutzern nicht nur dazu genutzt, digitale Informationsressourcen zu produzieren, sondern auch, um sie inhaltlich mit eigenen Schlagworten, sog. Tags, zu erschließen. Dabei müssen die Nutzer nicht wie bei Bibliothekskatalogen auf Regeln achten. Die Menge an nutzergenerierten Tags innerhalb eines Kollaborativen Informationsdienstes wird als Folksonomy bezeichnet. Die Folksonomies dienen den Nutzern zum Wiederauffinden eigener Ressourcen und für die Recherche nach fremden Ressourcen. Das Buch beschäftigt sich mit Kollaborativen Informationsdiensten, Folksonomies als Methode der Wissensrepräsentation und als Werkzeug des Information Retrievals.

Zugl.: Düsseldorf, Univ., Diss., 2009 u.d.T.: Peters, Isabella: Folksonomies in Wissensrepräsentation und Information Retrieval Rez. in: IWP - Information Wissenschaft & Praxis, 61(2010) Heft 8, S.469-470 (U. Spree): "... Nachdem sich die Rezensentin durch 418 Seiten Text hindurch gelesen hat, bleibt sie unentschieden, wie der auffällige Einsatz langer Zitate (im Durchschnitt drei Zitate, die länger als vier kleingedruckte Zeilen sind, pro Seite) zu bewerten ist, zumal die Zitate nicht selten rein illustrativen Charakter haben bzw. Isabella Peters noch einmal zitiert, was sie bereits in eigenen Worten ausgedrückt hat. Redundanz und Verlängerung der Lesezeit halten sich hier die Waage mit der Möglichkeit, dass sich die Leserin einen unmittelbaren Eindruck von Sprache und Duktus der zitierten Literatur verschaffen kann. Eindeutig unschön ist das Beenden eines Gedankens oder einer Argumentation durch ein Zitat (z. B. S. 170). Im deutschen Original entstehen auf diese Weise die für deutsche wissenschaftliche Qualifikationsarbeiten typischen denglischen Texte. Für alle, die sich für Wissensrepräsentation, Information Retrieval und kollaborative Informationsdienste interessieren, ist "Folksonomies : Indexing and Retrieval in Web 2.0" trotz der angeführten kleinen Mängel zur Lektüre und Anschaffung - wegen seines beinahe enzyklopädischen Charakters auch als Nachschlage- oder Referenzwerk geeignet - unbedingt zu empfehlen. Abschließend möchte ich mich in einem Punkt der Produktinfo von de Gruyter uneingeschränkt anschließen: ein "Grundlagenwerk für Folksonomies".

Abstract

An ontology is a knowledge representation structure made up of concepts and their interrelations. It represents shared understanding delineated by some domain. The building of an ontology can be addressed from the perspective of natural language processing. This thesis discusses the validity and theoretical background of knowledge acquisition from natural language. It also presents the theoretical and experimental framework for NLP-driven ontology building and evaluation tasks.
