Information owners, custodians and users
Information Management & Computer Security, 1996Defines a frequently encountered method for assigning information security responsibilities involving three terms: “owners”; “custodians”; and “users”. The objective of this responsibility assignment is clearly to indicate “where the buck stops”; owners being ultimately responsible for certain information, including its security.

Characterizing environmental information users
Proceedings of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2010AbstractThe information seeking and use characteristics of three groups of individuals interested in environmental information are described using a data consolidation technique known in the human‐computer interaction field as “persona”. These user archetypes show differences in the information sources sought, information behaviors shown, and in the ...

User model-based information filtering
1997The IFT (Information Filtering Tool) project has the goal of developing new approaches to information filtering which are based on user modeling techniques for building and managing the representation of the user information preferences. In this paper we describe three prototypes which have been developed and evaluated within the project.
