This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second International Conference on Data Information in Online Environments, DIONE 2021, which took place in March 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually. DIONE 2021 presents theoretical proposals and practical solutions in the treatment, processing and study of data and information produced in online environments, the latest trends in the analysis of network information, media metrics social, data processing technologies and open science. The 40 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 86 submissions. The papers are grouped in thematical sessions on evaluation of science in social networking environment; scholarly publishing and online communication; and education in online environments.
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the Third EAI International Conference on Data and Information in Online Environments, DIONE 2022, held as virtual event, in July 28-29, 2022. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually. DIONE 2022 aims to bring together academicians and practitioners willing to discuss topics around the intersection of Computer Science, Information Science, and Communication Science. The attractiveness of the scope and topics has brought relevant research results. This proceeding consists of chapters covering deep learning, data management, software design, social networks, natural language processing, and data processing in various contexts like scholarly publishing, health and medicine, higher education, innovation and research, energy and transportation, and organizations. The 18 full papers and 2 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 56 submissions. The papers are grouped in thematic sessions as follows: Informational challenges for the study of Science, Technology and Society relationships; and Advances in Artificial Intelligence for data processing and analysis in online social environments.
Trata-se de uma obra que discute correntes atuais em relação ao desenvolvimento teórico e metodológico na área de organização do conhecimento.
A Ciência da informação possui sob o seu "guarda-chuva" disciplinas que cuidam do registro, armazenamento e difusão da informação, gravadas em qualquer meio. Preserva, seleciona e avalia todo tipo de material com teor informacional. Executa estudos de usuários colaborando para a qualificada formação de profissionais que atuarão no planejar e manipular redes de informação. A pesquisa científica informacional atua intensamente no desenvolvimento e na aplicação de metodologias de elaboração, registro e preservação do conhecimento. O objetivo deste conjunto de autores/pesquisadores é contribuir para o importante legado a ser deixado para gerações futuras de profissionais e consumidores da informação, por ser um fenômeno que intermedeia todas as relações humanas. Queremos despertar a importância da correta difusão das informações, metodologicamente criadas e organizadas, para obtermos cada vez mais a melhor qualidade de vida em todos os aspectos.
A obra propõe uma incursão no uso e exploração do Método Quadripolar no contexto da Ciência da Informação e das problemáticas que resultam do atual contexto do Digital na atividade humana. Organizado em oito capítulos, apresenta o Método Quadripolar, faz um levantamento do seu uso em trabalhos de pós-graduação no Brasil e em Portugal e inclui uma entrevista com o seu proponente principal, Jacques Herman. Explora as propostas mais recentes da Ciência da Informação, associadas com o Digital e a Infocomunicação, pelo envolvimento também dos seus proponentes que assim, discutem a relevância epistemológica da Ciência da Informação, indicando a plausibilidade do método quadripolar na condição de ferramenta essencial para o nosso tempo.
La incorporación de tecnologías y métodos digitales en las humanidades y las instituciones del patrimonio cultural ha provocado una reflexión fundamental de sus áreas de investigación y tareas de divulgación: en los archivos y las bibliotecas, se reorganizan los procesos de preservación y documentación. Colecciones del patrimonio cultural reaparecen en la conciencia pública a través de nuevas formas de presentación. Las humanidades digitales introducen prácticas innovadoras en el estudio y la publicación del corpus textual e idiomático de las filologías. El presente volumen enfoca estas perspectivas desde una mirada cubana, caribeña e iberoamericana. Presenta los resultados ...
Pervasive Information Architecture explains the 'why' and 'how' of pervasive information architecture (IA) through detailed examples and real-world stories. It offers insights about trade-offs that can be made and techniques for even the most unique design challenges. The book will help readers master agile information structures while meeting their unique needs on such devices as smart phones, GPS systems, and tablets. The book provides examples showing how to: model and shape information to adapt itself to users' needs, goals, and seeking strategies; reduce disorientation and increase legibility and way-finding in digital and physical spaces; and alleviate the frustration associated with c...
The popular image of Scotland is dominated by widely recognized elements of Celtic culture. But a significant non-Celtic influence on Scotland's history has been largely ignored for centuries? This book argues that much of Scotland's history and culture from 1100 forward is Jewish. The authors provide evidence that many of the national heroes, villains, rulers, nobles, traders, merchants, bishops, guild members, burgesses, and ministers of Scotland were of Jewish descent, their ancestors originating in France and Spain. Much of the traditional historical account of Scotland, it is proposed, rests on fundamental interpretive errors, perpetuated in order to affirm Scotland's identity as a Celtic, Christian society. A more accurate and profound understanding of Scottish history has thus been buried. The authors' wide-ranging research includes examination of census records, archaeological artifacts, castle carvings, cemetery inscriptions, religious seals, coinage, burgess and guild member rolls, noble genealogies, family crests, portraiture, and geographic place names.
Policy makers, academic administrators, scholars, and members of the public are clamoring for indicators of the value and reach of research. The question of how to quantify the impact and importance of research and scholarly output, from the publication of books and journal articles to the indexing of citations and tweets, is a critical one in predicting innovation, and in deciding what sorts of research is supported and whom is hired to carry it out. There is a wide set of data and tools available for measuring research, but they are often used in crude ways, and each have their own limitations and internal logics. Measuring Research: What Everyone Needs to Know(R) will provide, for the fir...
