Peer reviewedChen, Guoqing; And Others – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1992
Discusses the problem of data redundancy in a fuzzy relational data model and describes three existing frameworks of fuzzy data representation and redundancy treatment. A new treatment based on Zadeh's extension principle is proposed. (18 references) (MES)

Peer reviewedHines, Theodore C.; And Others – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1970
The procedures used to produce the index to volume 20 (1969) of American Documentation are described to demonstrate a system for computer-assisted indexing and bibliographic production developed at the Columbia University School of Library Science. The system is demonstrated to be economic in comparison to currently used manual methods. (Author/MF)

Peer reviewedNg, Kwong Bor; Kantor, Paul B. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 2000
With many information retrieval (IR) schemes available, researchers have begun to investigate the benefits of combining results of different IR schemes to improve performance, in the process called "data fusion." This article investigates the predictive power of two variables--similarity of efficacy and dissimilarity of outputs--in simple…

Peer reviewedBuckland, Michael K. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1991
Explains distinctions between three meanings of "information"--information-as-process, information-as-knowledge, and information-as-thing--and discusses what things are informative. Types of information are discussed, including data, texts and documents, objects, and events; copies of information and representations are considered; and…

Peer reviewedKerre, Etienne E.; And Others – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1986
Briefly surveys the numerous applications of fuzzy set theory on data representation and information retrieval. The importance of fuzzy set theory with respect to information systems is illustrated with a bibliography of 86 papers that describe data systems that are somehow "fuzzy." (Author/EM)

Peer reviewedAdler, Sharon – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1992
Discusses the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML), which was adopted as an international standard for data description, data modeling, and interchange in October 1986, and explores its evolution from its technical completion to its adoption by the international market. (four references) (LAE)
