Investigative Skills for the 1990 S and Beyond

COMPUTER CRIME, HIGH-TECH CRIME, AND COMPUTER FRAUD ARE ALL terms used to describe the involvement of computers in the commission of crime. Computers have become a common business and household item and come in the form of personal organisers, notebooks, laptops, desktops, networks, mini and mainframe computers. Computer technology has not introduced a new crime but has changed the form of trad...

Implementing an integrated computerised information system about foot problems in diabetes is not enough to ensure adoption. Commentary on: general practitioners' and nurses' experiences of using computerised decision support in screening for diabetic foot disease: implementing Scottish Clinical Information - Diabetes Care in routine clinical practice.

This paper explores the central role of computerised code in shaping the social and geographical politics of inequality in advanced societies. Arguing that ‘softwaresorting’ techniques are now being widely applied in efforts to try and separate privileged and marginalised groups and places across a wide range of sectors and domains, the paper analyses recent research addressing three examples o...

The use of Information Systems in Fault Diagnosis

Excessive downtime remains a problem for many organisations, particularly those using complex capital intensive manufacturing processes. To counter this, many use computerised management systems to support various aspects of their maintenance activities including breakdown diagnosis. This paper describes research that has been undertaken to investigate the effectiveness of maintenance informati...

Information-based Item Selection with Blocking Strategy based on a Bayesian network

With the rapid development of computer technology information theory has been implemented for searching optimal adaptive item sequence in computerised adaptive test systems based on Bayesian network. Information theory such as entropy between dichotomous concepts and test items generalise common intuitions about item comparison for heuristic methodology. However, the executive time and the stor...
