The management of counting files, the calculation of radiocarbon age, and the creation and maintenance of databases for storage and retrieval of laboratory data are time-consuming and exacting tasks. These routine functions are essential to the successful operation of all 14C dating laboratories. However, since the number of 14C dating laboratories worldwide is rather limited, it is unlikely that a commercial software company will produce a program for use in 14C age calculation and associated data management. We have therefore developed Windows based software to meet some of these needs.

[The final form of this paper was published in the journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology.] Considering that big data is a reality for an increasing number of organizations in many areas, its management represents a set of challenges involving big data modeling, storage and retrieval, analysis and visualization. However, technological resources, people and processes are crucial dimensions to facilitate the management of big data in any organization, allowing information and knowledge from a large volume of data to support decision-making. Big data management must be supported by technology, people and processes; hence, this article discusses these three dimensions: the technologies for storage, analysis and visualization of big data; the human aspects of big data; and, in addition, the process management involved in a technological and business approach for big data management.

Data has changed the world in an unbelievable way and made an impact on our lifestyles at an exceptional rate. Big data is now the latest science of exploring and forecasting human-machine behavior dealing with a massive amount of associated data. The study is intended to understand the intensity and the competencies of librarians in implementing big data initiative project in academic libraries by the Government of Karnataka State. The study also tries to understand the application of big data in these libraries; 68 (87.17%) librarians completed the survey out of 78 respondents. The results of the study showed a strong association, that is, 72 (92.30%) respondents had the essential competencies and 58 (75.64%) librarians ability, intensity, readiness in implementing big data in academic libraries.

As an inexpensive, more versatile alternative to the Coulter counter and image analyzers for the acquisition of size data in biological research, a semiautomated measuring device with associated data storage and retrieval capabilities has been developed. It can be used for measurement of such diverse characters as zooplankton body size and helmet lengths, phytoplankton size, fish scale measurements, fish egg diameters, and general taxonomic features such as body proportions and inter-setule distances. Any organism, or part thereof, which can be scaled to the device's range of approximately 1–7 cm can be quickly and accurately counted and (or) measured.

The growing web of data warrants better data management strategies. Data silos are single points of failure and they face availability problems which lead to broken links. Furthermore the dynamic nature of some datasets increases the need for a versioning scheme. In this work, we propose a novel architecture for a linked open data infrastructure, built on open decentralized technologies. IPFS is used for storage and retrieval of data, and the public Ethereum blockchain is used for naming, versioning and storing metadata of datasets. We furthermore exploit two mechanisms for maintaining a collection of relevant, high-quality datasets in a distributed manner in which participants are incentivized. The platform is shown to have a low barrier to entry and censorship-resistance. It benefits from the fault-tolerance of its underlying technologies. Furthermore, we validate the approach by implementing our solution.
