Deskripsi

<p>Dear readers,</p><p>I am happy&nbsp; to present you a new&nbsp; issue of&nbsp; the Journal of&nbsp; Information and Organizational Sciences, volume 33, number 1.<br /><br />JIOS is being increasingly seen as a relevant journal in the field of information sciences and applied information and communication technology. Speaking in favour of this statement is the fact that JIOS has been&nbsp; included&nbsp; into several new databases &ndash; DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals), OAIster and Referativny Žurnal &ndash; which is information of interest to all our future authors. At present, we are cited in 7 diferent databases, which signifcantly enhances the visibility of the Journal. <br /><br />In&nbsp; this&nbsp; issue a&nbsp; selection of 9 original&nbsp; scientific papers, 3 preliminary communication articles and 1 review paper has been&nbsp; included, all of which have undergone rigorous double-blind review. Some of the papers published here were already presented at the CECIIS 2008 conference. The papers&nbsp; in the current&nbsp; issue cover a broad area of topics, from programming and web related topics, through algorithm and method proposals,&nbsp; to economics and applied&nbsp; linguistics. We hope you will find the papers interesting and challenging for your own research. <br /><br />We encourage you to submit your papers at www.jios.foi.hr, where you can also share with us your <br />recommendations, comments or critical remarks regarding the papers published in previous issues. <br />Your&nbsp; papers&nbsp; and&nbsp; feedback may&nbsp; prove&nbsp; invaluable&nbsp; in&nbsp; fulfilling&nbsp; our&nbsp; ambitions, which&nbsp; are&nbsp; very&nbsp; high indeed, as we have set out to enter some new databases. We would also appreciate your willingness to become a peer-reviewer for submitted papers, and thus give your contribution to the rising quality of JIOS.</p>
