Skaitmeninių technologijų plėtra keičia humanitarinių mokslų šaltinių kaupimo, saugojimo, apskaitos, tyrimo bei mokslinės informacijos sklaidos procesus. Kartu keičiasi humanitarinių mokslų institucijų ir tyrėjų vaidmuo šiuose procesuose, taip pat visuomenės požiūris į mokslą ir jį globojančias institucijas. Tačiau šiuolaikinėje Lietuvoje skaitmeninimas yra suprantamas vien praktine prasme.Šio straipsnio objektas yra skaitmeninimas, kaip mokslo tyrimas. Straipsnio tikslai yra: a) atsakyti į klausimą, ar skaitmeninimas gali turėti savitą mokslo tyrimų objektą, jei taip – pateikti jo apibrėžimą; b) paskatinti kolegų mokslinę diskusiją – aptarti skaitmeninimo ne kaip praktinę, o kaip mokslo veiklą; c) pateikti aktualių skaitmeninimo tyrimų, kurie buvo atlikti vykdant BARIS projektą, rezultatų pavyzdžių.Straipsnyje teigiama, kad skaitmeninimas gali turėti savitą mokslo tyrimo objektą. Tai emuliatyvumas – specifinis žmogaus santykis su tikrove, kai žmonės, remdamiesi kriterijais, atrenka iš realybės objektus ir jų pagrindu skaitmeninėje aplinkoje kuria emuliacines sistemas, kurios mėgdžioja ir imituoja realybėje veikiančių natūralių sistemų veiklą. Svarbu pažymėti, kad emuliacinės sistemos nėra realybėje egzistuojančių sistemų kopijos, jos sukurtos perkodavimo būdu ir yra tokios pat savarankiškos, dinamiškos ir laisvai evoliucionuojančios sistemos, kaip ir tos realybės sistemos, kurias jos mėgdžioja.Emuliatyvumas yra specifinis, kompiuterinių technologijų, virtualaus pasaulio ir interneto atsiradimo paskatintas reiškinys, kurį galime nagrinėti labai daugeliu prasmių iki pat asmens psichologijos imtinai. Tačiau šiame straipsnyje apsiribojama tik ta emuliatyvumo dalimi, kuri yra susijusi su kompiuterinių technologijų taikymu kūryboje, paveldosaugoje, humanitariniuose bei socialiniuose moksluose. Straipsnyje pateikiamas skaitmeninimo mokslo tyrimų, apibrėžimas, skirstymas į istorinius, fundamentinius ir taikomuosius tyrimus, sąsajos su kitais mokslais ir praktinėmis veiklomis, aptariami terminijos, metodų klausimai, pateikiama tyrimų atliktų BARIS (Bažnytinių archyvų informacinė sistema) projekto vykdymo metu, pavyzdžių.Digitization as science: Baris project experienceRimvydas Laužikas SummaryThe development of digital technologies is changing the processes of accumulation, storage, accountability and research of sources of humanitarian sciences and dissemination of scientific information. At the same time the role of institutions of humanitarian sciences and researchers in these processes is changing, as well as the public attitude to science and institutions protecting it. However, digitization in modern Lithuania is understood in purely practical aspect.The subject of this article is digitization as scientific research. The aims of the article are the following: a) to answer the question whether digitization is able to have its own object of research, and if so, to present its definition; b) to encourage colleagues for scientific discussion about digitization not as practical but scientific activity; c) to present examples of studies that were carried out while implementing the BARIS project (Information system of church archives) relevant for digitization.It is claimed in the article that digitization is able to have its own object of scientific research and that object is emulativity – a specific human relationship with reality when human beings select objects from reality according to certain criteria and on their basis create emulative systems in digital space that imitate the activities of naturally existing systems. It is worth noticing that emulative systems are not copies of systems existing in reality – they are created in the way of recoding and are as much independent, dynamic and freely evolving systems as the ones they are imitating in reality.Emulativity is a specific phenomenon stimulated by computer-based technologies, appearance of virtual reality and the internet, and which can be studied in many different aspects, up to personal psychology. However, the article restricts itself by the emulativity part which is related to application of computer-based technologies in creation, preservation of heritage, humanitarian and social sciences. The article presents the definition of the scientific object of digitization, its division into historical, fundamental and applied studies, links with other sciences and practical activities; discusses issues of terminology and methods, and presents examples of studies carried out while implementing the BARIS project (Information system of church archives).

In this article, we address the development and implementation of centralized information systems in the public sector. More specifically, we are concerned with implementation of such systems where a central governmental agency is collecting information from a number of similar institutions; for example, hospitals and colleges. It is our contention that the numerous problems traditionally associated with such systems often stem from the lack of a realistic participatory approach in the development and implementation of the system. This article discusses the participatory approach to the development and implementation of such a system - the Ontario College Information System (OCIS), a computer-based information system containing information on Ontario's twenty-two Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology.

SummaryModern information technology offers new opportunities for the storage and manipulation of hospital information. A computer-based hospital information system, dedicated to urology and nephrology, was designed and developed in our center. It involves in principle the employment of a program that allows the analysis of non-restricted, non-codified texts for the retrieval and processing of clinical data and its operation by non-computer-specialized hospital staff.This Hospital Information System now plays a vital role in the efficient provision of a good quality service and is used in daily routine and research work in this hospital. This paper describes this specialized Hospital Information System.

The purpose of the Transportation Economic and Land Use System (TELUS) is to convert the transportation improvement program (TIP) into a management tool. Accordingly, the system provides detailed and easily accessible information on transportation projects in the region, as well as their interrelationships and impacts. By doing so, TELUS enables public-sector agencies to meet organizational, Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act, state, and other mandates more effectively. The objectives are accomplished by providing the computer-based capability to analyze, sort, combine, and track transportation projects in or under consideration for a TIP; assessing the interrelationships among significant transportation projects; estimating the regional economic and land use effects of transportation projects; and presenting project information in an easily understood format, including geographic information system formats.

The increasing need for property in Tanjungpinang City is very growing, especially in the housing sector. Selection of property based on location and facilities and infrastructure is always a consideration for the community in making decisions to buy a property. Difficulty finding property location information in a certain area often occurs, resulting in people not getting references about the properties offered in Tanjungpinang City. The purpose of this research is to create a web-based geographic information system (GIS) regarding the distribution of the number of properties on offer, especially in Tanjungpinang City using a web-based mapping approach. In the development of Property GIS the author uses the Waterfall method and in the analysis of system requirements it is modeled with UML (Unified Modeling Language) and implemented with the PHP programming language and MySQLI database. It is hoped that the results of making this property's geographic information system can help the public to find out information about the distribution of properties offered, such as the location of property coordinates, addresses, prices, property photos, property specification data and property developer data.

The development and progress of IT-based information technology is very rapidly developing and has a very important role. Information systems are a necessity for agencies to utilize information as a basis for data administration and processing. To meet these needs, the agency conducts activities related to computer-based information systems as a tool to increase employee creativity. This system is designed to handle the transaction of escort and payment salary calculations and can guarantee validiity, complete authorization, classification of assessments, timeliness of each payroll transaction. In the Middle School Nusantara Wisata Respati Middle School still uses a manual payroll system, which is Microsoft Excel, so that people who are not authorized to enter and view data and can change the impact will disrupt the activity in processing salary data. For this reason, it is necessary to design a Java-based payroll information system at the Respati Archipelago Tourism Middle School.
