This chapter uses legislative changes in the structure of federal intelligence information management in the wake of 9/11 to explore problems that arise from the failure to distinguish the centralization/decentralization and coordination/independence dimensions of regulatory authority. According to the 9/11 Commission, created to investigate the intelligence community's inability to thwart the terrorist attacks, the failure of agencies such as the FBI and the CIA to share information with each other, attributable largely to a lack of coordinated information management, was a major contributing factor. The chapter contends that Congress and the 9/11 Commission's report-on which the former relied in 2004 in enacting the most comprehensive structural reform of the intelligence community in fifty years-erred by seeking to address coordination failures by centralizing aspects of the intelligence community through the creation of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. In addition, neither Congress nor the Commission distinguished clearly among three different information management functions-generation, dissemination, and analysis-in assessing past intelligence failures or selecting reorganizational responses to them. The chapter then uses the intelligence information management context to explore the policy tradeoffs of situating authority along both the centralization/decentralization and coordination/independence dimensions for each information management function.

Western thinking, which is predominantly linear and analytical, does not adequately give access to the complexities of Inuit visual culture. However hypertext offers new possibilities for information management, and the aboriginal communities are using it creatively to share information, as for example in the Internet record of the development of Canada’s newest territory, Nunavut. This article examines how and why interactive multimedia were the means chosen to develop a master’s thesis on the Inuit artist Jessie Oonark.

Computer Interaction

Technological artifacts, physical and digital, have occupied an increasing space in society. Through these artifacts, individuals’ access, store and share information, which may be spread across different equipment. On the other hand, through human-computer interaction, individuals use and appropriate this equipment, creating an ecology of artifacts that appears to be able to expand the physical and mental capacities of its users. In turn, the aforementioned expansion of capabilities seems to contribute to changes in the informational behavior of users of artifact ecologies during practices such as personal information management, the passage from information to knowledge, and the management of personal knowledge. However, there seems to be little literature relating concepts such as human-computer interaction through the use or appropriation of an artifact ecology, with informational behavior, and the aforementioned management of information and personal knowledge. This scarcity reduces the information available, the understanding of these relationships, and their action on the individual. That said, this work will start from a brief systematic review of the literature, to learn about recent works developed on the subject investigated. Afterward, the recovered literature will be confronted with each other, to find relationships between the concepts. The results obtained from this confrontation will contribute to informing other investigations related to the appropriation of artifact ecologies, for information management practices and personal knowledge.

Resumen   La gestión de la información geográfica se incorpora como una herramienta fundamental en diferentes procesos al interior de empresas, corporaciones regionales y otros. Los datos requeridos se clasifican como información geográfica por la componente espacial que las caracteriza y se presentan en dos modelos: vector y raster. Esta información se captura por medio de: radares, satélites, estaciones de medición, campañas de muestreo, entre otros y se comparte entre programas gracias a la interoperabilidad. La interoperabilidad en la gestión de información geográfica es un tópico que se aborda desde muchos frentes y por muchas organizaciones, principalmente el OGC, un consorcio a nivel mundial para el consenso de estándares relacionados con la gestión de información geográfica. Uno de los principales mecanismos de interoperabilidad abordados por el OGC y otras organizaciones es la implementación de servicios web para compartir información de manera transparente entre SIG, Globos Virtuales, Geoportales, y otros. Comprendiendo la pertinencia de los servicios web y la importancia del conocimiento generalizado de los estándares existentes para la implementación e integración de los mismos, en este artículo se realiza una reflexión sobre los servicios web para la gestión de información geográfica y se presenta un resumen gráfico usando esquemas preconceptuales. Palabras clave Interoperabilidad, OGC, Servicios Web, Sistemas de Información Geográfica.   Abstract The management of geographic information is incorporated as a fundamental tool in different processes within companies, regional corporations and others. The data required for these processes are classified as geographical information about the spatial component that characterizes them and come in two models: vector and raster. This information is captured by: radar, satellites, measuring stations, sampling campaigns, among others and shared between programs through interoperability. Interoperability in geographic information management is a topic that is addressed from many fronts and by many organizations, especially the OGC, a consortium worldwide for consensus standards related to geographic information management. One of the main mechanisms of interoperability addressed by the OGC and other organizations is the implementation of web services to share information seamlessly between GIS, Virtual Globes, Geo-portals, and others. Understanding the relevance of Web services and the importance of widespread awareness of the existing standards for the implementation and integration of them in this article reflects on Web services for managing geographic information using a summary graph using pre-conceptual schemas.Keywords Geographic Information Systems, Interoperability, OGC, Web Services

Laboratory Information Management

At the Microscopy and Microanalysis conference in Honolulu this last August a small meeting was convened to share information and knowledge about implementing LIMS (Laboratory Information Management Systems). The meeting took place at the end of the session on Core Facility Management, through the efforts of Debby Sherman, who is coordinator of the Core Facility Managers Focused Interest Group (http://microscopy.org/MSAUnits/Committees/ Facilities.html). In addition to the meeting, I spoke with several vendors (focusing on those vendors we use here at PathBioResource), as well as others who have made some progress in developing and/or installing LIMS.

There are many reasons why today’s computerized information systems can achievemore sharing in government than ever before. Over the last decade, an increasingemphasis has been placed on taking an enterprise-wide view of governments in order toreplace “stovepipe” systems that focus on one department’s needs with integratedsystems that would allow users from any department to access to information they needto achieve their jobs. This ability to share information across departmental boundarieshas become accepted as one of the basic goals of modern information management ingovernment. One of its key precepts is that data should only be input once into a systemand any user (with a valid need) can use that information from anywhere at any time ina variety of forms.

There are two main aspects of problems in home appliance product lifecycle information management. One is the loss of information and unable to share information in time. The other is the existing bar code and other information recording methods are easy to wear or deface, resulting in low efficiency in information collection and high error rate, even cannot be read. This paper established a home appliance product lifecycle information management system based on RFID. RFID is used to collect and store data. Under such information sharing circumstance, not only integrity and instantaneity of product information are improved, but also the information management of home appliance product lifecycle is strengthened.

Objective The objective of the study was to examine specific patterns of Twitter usage using common reference to tinnitus. Method The study used cross-sectional analysis of data generated from Twitter data. Twitter content, language, reach, users, accounts, temporal trends, and social networks were examined. Results Around 70,000 tweets were identified and analyzed from May to October 2018. Of the 100 most active Twitter accounts, organizations owned 52%, individuals owned 44%, and 4% of the accounts were unknown. Commercial/for-profit and nonprofit organizations were the most common organization account owners (i.e., 26% and 16%, respectively). Seven unique tweets were identified with a reach of over 400 Twitter users. The greatest reach exceeded 2,000 users. Temporal analysis identified retweet outliers (> 200 retweets per hour) that corresponded to a widely publicized event involving the response of a Twitter user to another user's joke. Content analysis indicated that Twitter is a platform that primarily functions to advocate, share personal experiences, or share information about management of tinnitus rather than to provide social support and build relationships. Conclusions Twitter accounts owned by organizations outnumbered individual accounts, and commercial/for-profit user accounts were the most frequently active organization account type. Analyses of social media use can be helpful in discovering issues of interest to the tinnitus community as well as determining which users and organizations are dominating social network conversations.
