Chang, Chin-Chen; Wu, Tzong-Chen – Information Processing and Management, 1993
Proposes and explains a new mechanism for controlling the access requests in information protection systems that is based on Newton's interpolating polynomial. Access control matrices are discussed; single-key-lock systems are described; relevant algorithms are explained; and an example of the new mechanism is included. (10 references) (LRW)

Pichappan, P.; Khatri, N. K. – Information Services & Use, 1995
High impact astronomy journals were identified by using a methodology called Discipline-Contribution Score (DCS). The DCS algorithm was used to track citations of 33 nonrecognized astronomy journals, as well as to measure contributions to astronomy by multisubfield physics and multidisciplinary journals. (JKP)
