Research And Education

In this article we discuss the effort made by the Internet Pilot to Physics (TIPTOP) project to develop a uniform and open information infrastructure for physics research and education. We discuss concepts such as communication in research and education, the importance of distributed indexing and catalogs, and briefly the use of new technology such as VRML and Java. We also stress the importance of developing and using standardized protocols and formats such as the Summary Object Interchangeable Format (SOIF) and Thematic Uniform Resource Agents (TURA). TIPTOP has rapidly grown to be one of the most popular physics Internet knowledge servers, and the recently established collaboration with the European Physical Society is an important step forward in developing a stable framework of high quality information for researchers and educators.

The present article is devoted to identifying the sources and gathering information system in the process of prosecutorial supervision over the implementation of laws on combating corruption. On the basis of the content of the legal acts regulating the activities of designated prosecutors in the field of supervision over the implementation of laws on combating corruption as well as the application thereof, and also statistics, the author undertakes to study the information component of the activities of prosecutors in the field in question. The definition and classification are based on the information used in this area by supervisory agencies. The author analyzed the powers of prosecutors in the field in question. Special attention is given to the existing restrictions established for the methods of working with the information that is accessible to prosecutors. The author specifies the causes which give rise to liability for breach of such requirements. The article also contains a number of recommendations relating to the collection and identification of sources of information in the exercise of prosecutorial supervision over the implementation of laws on combating corruption. The conclusion is that the achievement of positive results in supervisory activities in this area is impossible without the high-quality information and analytical support for the activities of the prosecutor.

The Impact

Abstract: Scholarly publishing and access to high-quality information may in fact be threatened, rather than improved, by the revolution in communications, particularly in a fully commercial Internet. The effects of the political revolution in Eastern Europe on scholarship and quality publishing are used as a touchstone of the dangers that occur when naïve revolutionaries make swift changes without fully recognizing the impact upon delicately balanced social institutions such as non-profit organizations. Résumé: La révolution en communications, particulièrement en ce qui regarde un Internet commercialisé, plutôt que d'améliorer l'édition savante et l'accès à de l'information de haute qualité, pourrait en fait poser une menace pour ceux-ci. Cet article examine comment la révolution politique en Europe de l'Est a influé sur la recherche et l'édition de qualité. Il utilise cet exemple pour examiner les dangers que peuvent courir certains révolutionnaires naïfs quand ils instaurent des changements rapides san songer à leur impact sur des institutions sociales à équilibre délicat comme les organisations à but non lucratif.

Zusammenfassung: Der Beitrag analysiert sowohl Schwachstellen als auch darauf aufbauend Handlungsempfehlungen und Lösungsvorschläge im Bereich der finanziellen Bildung von privaten Haushalten. Die Analyse der Schwachstellen umfasst eine kritische Sicht auf die Methodik zur Einschätzung finanzieller Bildung, die Beurteilung der finanziellen Bildung insbesondere junger Erwachsener, den Maßnahmenkatalog zur Verbesserung finanzieller Bildung und die Verbraucherinformationen, die sowohl als Voraussetzung für die Anwendung finanzieller Bildung als auch als Grundlage für eine Verbesserung der finanziellen Bildung im Kontext eines lebenslangen Lernens eine zentrale Rolle einnehmen. Zentrale Lösungsvorschläge zielen auf eine praxisnahe Meta-Bildung, die auf ein ökonomisches Grundverständnis, wenige Faustregeln und die relevantesten finanziellen Entscheidungen im Lebenszyklus ausgelegt ist, und ein gesetzlich vorgeschriebener Zugang zu relevanten und hochwertigen Informationen, um die Vergleichbarkeit von Produkten und Dienstleistungen im Bereich der Verbraucherfinanzen für private Haushalte und Informationslotsen deutlich zu verbessern und ein lebenslanges, praxisnahes Lernen zu ermöglichen. Summary: This article analyses weaknesses in the field of private households’ financial literacy and – building upon this – provides recommendations and solutions. The analysis of the weaknesses covers a critical view on the methodology used to measure financial literacy, the assessment of the financial literacy of young adults, the package of measures for the enhancement of financial literacy and consumer information, which play a central role as precondition for the application of financial literacy and as basis for the enhancement of financial literacy through life-long learning. Main recommendations and solutions are to establish a meta-literacy that is built on understanding basic economic principles, few rules of thumb, and the most relevant decisions in the life cycle. Moreover, a statutory access for households to relevant and high-quality information to significantly enhance the comparability of financial products and services for consumers and to enable a life-long learning in step with actual practice.

Objective – The role of Indonesia Regional Development Bank (RDB) as an agent of development in each specific operational area is expected to give a significant contribution to regional economics. The Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB started since 2015 is created to optimize the RDB’s role. This study is aimed to gain some description about the level of information quality in Indonesian RDB, to obtain real situation on the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB, and to test whether the high-quality information will accelerate the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB.Design/methodology – The study was conducted using data from the annual report of Indonesian RDBs and additional in-depth interview with RDB practitioners. The technique of purposive sampling is used in this study with the data availability criteria. The statistic analysis uses multiple regression with t-test and F-test to test the influence of information quality and some control variables on the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB. Results – The Indonesian RDBs’ quality of information still cannot be perceived at a high level. The implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDBs has already run in the first phase of foundation building with various obstacles. The high-quality information produced by financial reporting of RDB is proven can accelerate the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDBs. Research limitations/implications – The theoretical contribution of this study is giving empirical evidence that the information quality accelerates the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB. The managerial  implication is that Indonesian RDBs must improve their financial reporting system and create some innovations for the successful Transformation Program. The main limitation of this research is the limited scope of study. It is recommended to make further relevant research on the same issue in a wider context to get more enriched findings.Novelty/Originality – The area of implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDBs has been insufficiently examined currently. Thus, this study contributes to this area by examining whether high-quality information produced by financial reporting will accelerate the implementation of Transformation Program in Indonesian RDB.Keywords Information Quality, Financial Reporting, Banking Transformation.
