Bibliometric analysis of themes competitive intelligence, knowledge management and organizational knowledge in Institutional Repository University of Brasília
Trata da análise dos temas Inteligência Competitiva (IC),
Gestão do Conhecimento (GC) e Conhecimento
Organizacional (CO), no Repositório Institucional da
Universidade da Brasília (RIUnB), que está disponível em
acesso aberto desde setembro de 2008. O objetivo é
verificar a produção científica sobre as áreas de pesquisa,
a partir dos documentos que constam no RIUnB. O
método de trabalho consistiu nos estudos bibliométricos,
a fim de se inteirar sobre a produção de trabalhos
referentes ao conhecimento resultante do
desenvolvimento de pesquisas no âmbito institucional,
para conhecer a comunidade. Os resultados apontam para
um crescimento notório desses temas na ciência da
informação, com perspectiva de crescimento em outras
áreas: administração, engenharia elétrica, educação e
gestão social e trabalho, demonstrando sua potencial
interdisciplinaridade; houve maior concentração de
publicação nos temas gestão do conhecimento,
conhecimento organizacional e inteligência competitiva,
respectivamente, e existe uma concentração dessas
publicações em três pesquisadores na comunidade da
Faculdade de Ciência da Informação (FCI). Conclui-se que
os temas são mais frequentes na área de ciência da informação, entretanto, nota-se o seu aparecimento em
outras áreas do conhecimento, na UnB: administração,
engenharia elétrica, educação e gestão social e do
trabalho. Esses dados podem revelar uma tendência de
consolidação dos temas de pesquisa em outras áreas. ________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACTThis analysis of topics Competitive Intelligence (CI),
Knowledge Management (KM) and Organizational
Knowledge (CO) in the Institutional Repository of the
University of Brasília (RIUnB) which is available in open
access since September 2008. The aim is to check the
scientific literature on the research areas from the
documents listed in RIUnB. The working method consisted
in bibliometric studies, in order to learn about the
production of works relating to knowledge resulting from
research development at the institutional level to know
the community. The results indicate a remarkable growth
of these themes in information science, with growth
prospects in other areas: administration, electrical
engineering, management and education and social work,
demonstrating its potential interdisciplinarity, there was a
higher concentration of publishing on issues of knowledge
management, organizational knowledge and competitive
intelligence, respectively, and there is a concentration of
such publications in three community researchers in the
Faculty of Information Science (FCI). We conclude that
the issues are more frequent in the area of information
science, however, note its appearance in other areas of
knowledge in UNB: administration, electrical engineering,
education and social management and labor. These data
may reveal a trend of consolidation of research topics in
other areas
Measuring the impact of information on development: A LISREL-based study of small businesses in Shanghai
As part of a larger project studying the impact of information on development, an investigation was made of the feasibility of using the LISREL (Linear Structural RELations) model to determine the impact of information, relative to other factors, on development of the small manufacturing business sector in Shanghai, China. Data was collected via questionnaire from 450 businesses in the city. A convergent LISREL model showed that the major factors affecting business success were, first, business environment, and, second, information use. Informal information use was more important to business success than use of more formal sources

Multimedia search with pseudo-relevance feedback
We present an algorithm for video retrieval that fuses the decisions of multiple retrieval agents in both text and image modalities. While the normalization and combination of evidence is novel, this paper emphasizes the successful use of negative pseudo-relevance feedback to improve image retrieval performance. Although we have not solved all problems in video information retrieval, the results are encouraging, indicating that pseudo-relevance feedback shows great promise for multimedia retrieval with very varied and errorful data. 1 Video Retrieval from Mixed Text and Image Queries In this paper, we present an algorithm for the task of video retrieval. A query, consisting of a text description plus images or video is posed against a video collection, and relevant shots are to be retrieved. Our system accomplishes this by fusing the retrieval results of multiple retrieval agents. The overall system can be decomposed into several agents, including a text-oriented retrieval agent, which is responsible for finding the text in the speech transcripts [4] and Video OCR [3],
Records management practices in small and medium sized enterprises: a study in North East England.
A survey study of 300 enterprises in North-East England yielded new information on the records management procedures in small and medium sized enterprises. The survey showed that companies with more formalised management structures took a more organised approach to records management, and companies with various formal policies paid more attention to records management. Records management practices seemed to be independent of company size and industrial sector
