A terminology-based Re-definition of Grey Literature
Sassi, Manuela ; Marzi, Claudia ; Pardelli, Gabriella
The conventionally accepted definition of Grey Literature, as Information produced and distributed by non-commercial publishing, does not take into consideration either the increasing availability of forms of grey knowledge, or the growing importance of computer-based encoding and management as the standard mode of creating and developing grey literature. Semi-automated terminological analysis of almost twenty years of terminological creativity in the proceedings of eleven GL International Conferences offers the opportunity to pave the way to a bottom-up redefinition of Grey Literature stemming from attested terminological creativity and lexical innovation.

Towards a Prague Definition of Grey Literature
Schöpfel, Joachim
The most common definition of grey literature, the so-called ‘Luxembourg definition’, was discussed and approved during the 3rd International Conference on Grey Literature in 1997. In 2004, at the 6th International Conference on Grey literature in New York City, a postscript was added. The main characteristic of this definition is its economic perspective on grey literature, based on business, publishing and distribution models of the disappearing Gutenberg galaxy. With the changing research environment and new channels of scientific communication, it becomes clear that grey literature needs a new conceptual framework.

Peering through the Review Process: Towards Transparency in Grey Literature
Farace, Dominic
Now that grey literature is readily catalogued, referenced, cited, and openly accessible to subject based communities as well as net users, the claims that grey literature is unpublished or non-published have sufficiently been put to rest. However, now that grey literature has met these former challenges and entered mainstream publishing, it requires in the spirit of science to have a system in place for the quality control of its content. This new challenge has recently been spurred by the IPCC affaire involving the use/misuse of grey literature and is now almost a daily topic in the world media. The purpose of this study will be to explore the degree to which grey literature is reviewed and to compare similarities and differences with formal peer review carried out in various degrees by commercial publishers. This study will further distinguish the review process implemented by grey publishers from that of mavericks and vanity press, where personal opinion and pure speculation run rampant. This study looks at the body of literature on peer review and its relatedness to grey literature. Key concepts and elements in peer review form the framework for a comparative analysis, and these are examined in light of guidelines on peer review submitted by publishers. In addition, alternative models for peer review found during the course of study are compared for their relevance to grey literature.

Měnící se význam a vliv informací
Láznička, Jan ; Rosický, Antonín (advisor) ; Pavlíček, Antonín (referee)
Bakalářská práce se zabývá nejprve podstatou lidského myšlení, protože právě v mozku dochází k procesům, díky kterým informace chápeme a pracujeme s nimi. Jsou zde nastíněny důvody, proč lidé jednají různě, i pokud mají stejné údaje, porovnány možnosti rozhodnutí založených na jedinečnosti člověka. Samozřejmostí při práci s informacemi jsou informační zdroje, v textu popsány s ohledem na minulou dobu a současnost. Se zdokonalujícími ICT, nárůstem počtu informací a jejich důležitosti, je kladen velký důraz na zabezpečení informací. Proto jsou zde rozepsány i základní šifrovací algoritmy používané v kryptologii. Závěr práce je věnován náhledu na budoucnost práce s informacemi.
Comparison of Product Information Management software tools
Vytiska, Tomáš ; Slánský, David (advisor) ; Pour, Jan (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the Product Information Management (PIM) and compares PIM software tools. Its goal is to introduce the area of the PIM systems in Czech language. Next subgoal is to define system of criteria. It is also necessary to achieve the last goal -- to analyze and compare PIM software. The method I used is the exploration of information sources; obtaining information through email communication and use of empirical knowledge to define system of criteria. The contribution of this work is the same as its goals. The work is divided into two parts. The first theoretical part deals with PIM definitions, context, functionality, architectures and PIM market developing. The second practical part involves selecting of particular PIM software tools, defining system of criteria and comparison of PIM software tools.
