The digital recording of Cultural Heritage (CH) and its metadata relates to the concept for data warehousing systems and their lifecycle. It uses models and development tools of ETL packages. The tasks used to extract metadata from raw digitized CH data often include hard computing problems, including NP-complete problems. This paper describes the current state of digital preservation of Cultural Heritage with an accent on data integration and performance optimization of processes. We show our vision for further solutions for automated optimization of resource utilization in ETL jobs cutting development cost. In parallel, we describe our experiment that uses quantum computation (in simulation mode) to solve hard combinatorial problems as multiple query optimization.

A particularly important role in shaping the image of cultural institutions to the public certainly belongs to cultural policies of each institution. In this context, this paper will show cultural policy of archives and its impact on the formation of the overall image which archives have in the public and how to occupy its attention. In addition to the cultural politics of the archive, as a factor shaping the final image of an archive, the paper will discuss the organization of cultural and educational activities - what they are, or what they should be. Cultural and educational activities are an essential element in forming the cultural identity of each institution, so in this topic we should not ignore their synergy with the overall policy of the archive to the formation of public awareness of the role and importance of archives.

The modern archive building with modern designed storage space and physical - technical security documents is a basic prerequisite for good protection of archival material. In Serbia, unfortunately, this issue is not given due attention, which is far behind countries with developed archival activity, such as the UK, Germany, Australia and the United States. The theme of this paper is to highlight the importance of a dedicated facility designed archival building, featured by which standards are fulfilled conditions necessary for the functionality of the archive building, as well as how and to what extent these standards are used in the construction of the new building of the Historical Archives of the City of Novi Sad.

Since the establishment of the sovereign Republic of Croatia and since the change of social and political system, archival activities and work of state archives have been influenced by various processes: transition, democratization, introduction of information technology, globalization, mod ernization of state administration, dissemination of neeliberal economy, development of information society and many others. Archives have been faced with enormous quantities of archival records on which they were not specifically focused in the previous period, and also with issues concerning transfer, arranging use, ownership relations and other problems concerning that material. Expansion of the framework of activities, development of new services and adaptation of traditional tasks to market conditions and modern social trends, all additionally pointed out the old, so far unresolved problems and led to the appearance of new ones. This paper shows some of the fac tors considered prerequisites for the successful work of Croatian archives in the modern environment unification and standardization of business pro cesses, fulfillment of supervising function in relation to the creators, develop ment of information role of the archive and implementation of a integrated national archival system.

Archives in Bosnia and Herzegovina (at least one of them) under- stand the importance of opening to the public and communication with the public. Internet in the field of archivistics in Bosnia and Herzegovina is still the "new-old" media. New is because all archives are not applied for the pur- pose of their presentation, so for them it remains new and its old because in fact it no longer represents a novelty in the field of communications. Web pages provide basic information about the role, importance, the function of archives, their organization and activities, but there is still room for more fully informing the public. Technical possibilities of creating web pages are not fully used. Re- sults are not particularly original solutions, mostly it is a simple, graphical unimaginative pages. Browsers that exist on some web sites do not always provide the requested information (the text does not match the specific term or period). No pages allow the search and use of available funds electronically (by registered users who pre-paid membership fees or any other form of monetary compensation). The Internet is a medium suitable for permanent data actualization; with the Internet you can always be in touch with newest events and timely inform the public - the advantage that is not being used by all the archives: pages are not updated, information is outdated, news can not be called news anymore because the date is from several years ago, for individual events is is not surely known if they occurred, or they will happen in the future. Capabilities of presenting the Archive via Web page are infinite, the refinement and application of new technological solutions is a process that will allow these institutions to fully adapt to the trend of modern business.

Internet has become the biggest, best and cheapest means of advertising, which is being used more and more in recent years in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Historical Archive of Sarajevo first web page was set in May 2003. Because of its static nature and the inability to update the page by Archive's employees, soon we began to think about its redesign, and finding a better system for site maintenance since one of the keys to the success of the site is fresh, updated content. Transfer has been made towards the new technology, in this case to the Joomla! CMS - a system for managing web content, which is expensive, but also more efficient. The overall organization of the site has been improved, the color and graphics refreshed, as well as complete visual appearance itself.

The efforts of Bosnian society to approach and follows the developed countries through information technology has led to the development of information technologies in various spheres of our society, including the judiciary of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The use of paper documents into business generates significant limitations, costs and risks. Circulation of paper documents is slower than the flow of information processes supported by modern software applications, and negatively affects the speed and quality of the process. In addition, the manipulation of paper documents, particularly in dislocated environment is causing damage and loss of documents, which can have significant consequences. Archives of Bosnia and Herzegovina will meet with these and similar systems management documents, which requires a certain adjustment in the work of Service for protection of archival material outside the archives.

Computer crime represents an international issue which all democratic societies, including ours, need to stand against. Accordingly, it is necessary to introduce such legal definitions in positive legislation of the Republic of Serbia which take into account the specificity of electronic proof, in order to use collected proof as valid in a court procedure. Also, an international standardization of process rules of a criminal procedure regarding actions of corroboration of this kind of crime is necessary, in order to use proof collected in a foreign state through an international legal cooperation in criminal matters in our state, and vice versa, having in mind trans-national component of IT crime.

Book arrangement problems in Indonesia mainly utilize traditional systems. However, it contributes to user frustration and dissatisfaction, leading to difficulties in the retrieval process and hindering book monitoring. Therefore, an efficient arrangement is needed to make it easier for librarians to organize collections at the library. Hence, this study proposes and evaluates Optical Character Recognition (OCR) approaches such as Tesseract-OCR and Efficient and Accurate Scene Text (EAST) by considering various light factors and device applications. An evaluation was performed to determine the effectiveness of the methods for detecting classification numbers using the Character Error Rate (CER) and Word Error Rate (WER). The results obtained can be seen from the lighting and the use of image capture tools that can affect the text detection results. The higher the lighting, the better the text detection results obtained. However, in the extraction tool using a security camera yields a better output than the others. In conclusion, the modernization of book arrangement systems by implementing OCR through security cameras could enhance user experience in the retrieval process.

Archivní knihovny jsou velmi specifickými zástupci veřejných knihoven. Z typologického hlediska náleží ještě spolu s muzejními knihovnami do skupiny speciálních vědeckých knihoven. Jejich existence se částečně skrývá za působením samotných archivů a mnozí uživatelé z řad širší odborné veřejnosti o nich v podstatě ani nevědí. Co se týče fondu, je z hlediska veřejných knihoven naprosto specifický – viz kapitola „Fond a výpůjční specifika archivních knihoven“.
