To use SGML, which is international standard of markup language to construct fulltext database in digital libraries, the DTD is developed first. It is based on structure analysis of document. This study develops the SGML DTD for Korean document through document structure analysis of the Journal of the Korean Society for Information Management.

This paper discusses the basic concept of artificial intelligence(AI) and expert system and a particular technique(fuzzy logic) applied to expert systems. It examines expert system as search intermediaries during the past few years, particularly in terms of the following functions: 1) handling certain classes of questions on a particular database, 2) assisting in decision making for selecting databases or search terms, and 3) offering advice while keeping the end-user in the control of the searching process. The limitations and difficulties involved in developing such expert systems are also presented.

In computer-based virtual lab, a bioscience researcher who wants to obtain bio information first uses a biodiversity-related database to retrieve information on species, ecology and distribution of an organism. The researcher also needs to access gene/protein databases such as GenBank or PDB to find information on the organism's genetic sequence and protein structure. Furthermore, the researcher should search for academic papers containing the information on the organism so that his research is based on comprehensive and accurate information. This series of activities often undermines research efficiency as it takes a lot of time and causes inconvenience on the part of researchers. To solve such inconvenience, we analyzed various methods for integrated search and chosen schema integration. In addition, we analyzed each databases and extracted metadata for designing schema integration. This paper introduces a biological information retrieval system(BIRS) using schema integration and it's interface that will increase research efficiency for bioscience.

This study is intend to analyze the cited patent life time of US patent data via more objective way. It is based on exploratory approach which is one of various methods for technology forecasting. The life spans of cited patents of specific technological field are deduced from using informetric analysis of USPA database of KISTI, which is composed of US patent data covered from 1972 to present. The statistics of the results may help to estimate the economic life span of the specific technological area for technology valuation.

Among biological information, GenBank, provided by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)of the United States, is a representative database on genetic information and is the most widely used by researchers around the world. Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI) visits NCBI on a regular basis and downloads the latest version of GenBank to reorganize the information gathered there into a database. This database is provided for Korean researchers of science and technology through the Bio-KRISTAL search engine, developed by KISTI. This study aims to design a service model that links information on papers, patents, and biodiversity and other contents of NDSL, an integrated service on scientific and technological information run by KISTI, with GenBank's reference and organism fields and to develop a prototype system. For this purpose, this paper explores the possibility of a linkage and convergence service between heterogeneous content by: (a) collecting GenBank data from NCBI's FTP site; (b) dividing GenBank text files into basic and reference genetic information and restructuring them into a database; (c) extracting article and patent information from the GenBank reference fields to generate new tables; and (d) leveraging data mapping technology to implement a prototype system where GenBank and NDSL data are interlinked and provided.

The data base is a basis for the Management Information Systems (MIS) and Technical Data Packages(TDPs) are one of the key factors in the research and development activities. Most research institutes has been developed their own MIS and also MIS for the IDP has been advanced and applied in the various area. However, MIS and it's operation of the drawings and TDPs generated from researches and developments should be developed further more. In this study, we studied on the creation of data base of MIS related to the drawings, specifications and TDPs based on general concepts and priciple of MIS and data base. And finally, mentioned a design of data base consisting of drawing, specifications and related TDPs which are applied to MIS. To help to understand this system, it is presented, that three master files and six variable files were created, as a experimental data base, according to the "TOTAL" of CYBER computer system and two other user programs and it's outputs after computer run. It is expected that results of this study could be useful for TDP MIS enhancement through improvement of this study and new user program development.

Nowadays we usually act based on information in order to act effectively, we should enlarge our access to information of course, we have several methods to choose from, but commercial databases are the most advantageous. One reason is that everyone has equal access to commercial databases. As a result, people or companies who use commercial database information skillfully have a distince advantage over those who don't commercial database services in japan have been changing rapidly since their birth more than twenty years ago. For example, the distribution mode of databases is changing : from the original batch(off line) to on-line and most recently to the coexistence of batch and on line with the advent of CD-ROM. It is important for us to keep up with the new trends in databases, and to utilize them effectively as a tool in the information age.

A literature analysis for the planning and implementation of information system was carried out to establish the oceanographic R&D results, the first in Korea. The study targeted from scientific & technical report and to oceanographic survey data. The focus of the analysis lies in the providing practical information retrieval service for oceanographic R&D results based on the framework of effective Dublin Core metadata. The analyses included information system organization, web information service process, data input-output process, web visualization process, and retrieval for planning and implementation of oceanographic survey data and scientific & technical report.
