This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Overview of the User Needs Survey Research Project The User Needs Survey is a major research project that has been underway at the Center for Information Systems Research since 1978. The study was motivated by the desire to better understand the managers who are the end-users of computer-based information systems and the issues involved in fulfilling their information needs. We wanted to know what user managers considered the strengths and weaknesses of the information systems (i/s) departments in their companies. We wanted to find out what types of systems user managers had currently, which of their tasks were suitable for computer support, what types of systems they were currently demanding, and what they would be requiring in the future.

The chapters in this edited collection cover many subjects, including text and data markup, data management, network analysis, pedagogical theory and the Social and Semantic Web, illustrating the range of methods that enrich the many facets of the study of the ancient world. This volume exemplifies the collaborative and interdisciplinary nature that is at the heart of Classical Studies.
