Peer reviewedRouse, William B.; And Others – Information Processing and Management, 1982
Strategies, heuristics, and tradeoffs involved in online searching of bibliographic citation networks are discussed using results from field of citation analysis to describe mathematical structure of citation networks. Discussion of two studies of human information seeking behavior examines the search question and interconnectivity of the…

Klingensmith, Patricia J. – 1980
The University of Pittsburgh has developed software that stresses the teaching of systems rather than databases and replicates the language, formats, and search capabilities of the DIALOG, ORBIT, and BRS systems. Using a DEC 11/780 computer and samples of more than 60 databases, the University has successfully emulated the parent systems. A…

Rubinoff, Morris; And Others – 1967
A minimum of 30 minutes is required to learn even the rudiments of the command language (Symbolic Language). Although written instructions are helpful, practice is essential. The programmed instruction routines, which took approximately 20 minutes, were mostly of the 'yes-no' variety. Expanded routines, which would require other replies and would…

Ganz, Carole – 1976
Several current projects aim to improve the use of scientific and technical information by increasing research on the education of users, by upgrading instructional materials which teach the use of such information, and by increasing user motivation. Some projects attempt to increase motivation by incorporating literature searches into the…

Linn, William Erwin, Jr. – 1972
The trend toward on-line utilization of computers in recent years has included the emergence of computer support systems to fill the information processing needs of individuals engaged in scientific research. In this study, a new approach to document description is applied to the design of a personal information storage and retrieval system,…
