This study aims to evaluate the quality of databases in scientific and technical fields. The maul discussion is about the quality issues of KORDIC's seven database the most typical web database of scientific and technical fields in Korea. Eighteen evaluation criteria, considered two aspects of data itself and service of database, are used to measure their quality. The purpose of this study Is to diagnose the qualify of databases mentioned above and to analyses the measured result of quality objectively and to find out the problems of them and also to provide possible suggestions for their improvements.

Domestic information service authority and company provide database services to introduce the newest scientific and technological information, trend, and research data. Among many databases, FSTA((Food Science and Technology Abstracts)) is a bibliographic database providing worldwide coverage of all scientific and technological aspects of the processing and manufacturing of human food products. To service FSTA database through KRISTAL search engine developed by KISTI(Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information) need many process such as data obtainment, building, search, modification, rebuilding, and statistics. In this paper, we present implementation of management tool used to build FSTA database effectively. The management tool provides graphical user interface and controls all process from data obtainment to building of KRISTAL information searching system. By building FSTA database fast and accurately, user can get information that they want to find from the newest FSTA database.

The purpose of this study is to describe the current practises and procedure of building the authority file for corporate names and conference names for Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information Authority Database, and the characteristics of OCLC WorldCat and Library of Congress Authorities Database as the sources for importing authority records. Workflow of creating authorities records is explained and the structures and search strategies for OCLC and LC databases are compared and analyzed. The actual procedures of importing records from outside sources and revising their contents to represent KISTI's needs are described step by step, and records are illustrated.

The problem of semantic interoperability in science and technology information is frequently raised. Well-established classification scheme will be used as a tool to interchange information between different databases without semantic inconsistency. However, there is still a practical barrier due to different classification schemes each database adopts. Accordingly, it is urgent to harmonize or reconcile those classifications with each other. This paper aims to solve semantic inconsistencies occurred when interchanging information between databases having different classification schemes, the Standard National Sci-Tech Classification and the Standard KISTI Classification. For the purpose a conceptual analysis of science and technology are performed and five consistency/inconsistency types are analyzed based on some examples.

The objective of this study is to prepare a source data in order to establish a standardization of scientific and technical terms in Korean language. This will contribute to accelerate the production of Korean databases in scientific and technical field and will be used as the most convenient search tool for accessing to the foreign database. This study includes the construction of the multi-lingual thesaurus comprising of Korean, English, and Japanese. First of all a theoretical background on thesaurus is reviewed, and terms are collected from JICST Thesaurus, English-Japanese List and JICST Thesaurus, Japanese-English List published by JICST in 1987. This multi-lingual thesaurus covers 38,318 terms of Korean descriptors, 2,870 terms of Korean non-descriptors, 38,318 terms of English descriptors, 11,910 terms of English non-descriptors, and 38,318 terms of Japanese descriptors, 9,789 terms of Japanese non-descriptors.

This is a practical study on acquisition and efficiently use of CD-ROM databases of diverse subject areas which in recent has rapidly increased in quantity. This study was concentrated on the proposition of production CD-ROM database and intended to give effective ideas of its design. I analysed and compared several CD-ROM databases in aspects of their menu configuration and information retrieval technics, so that may present a rational norm.
