Abstract:
The relevance of an information resource in an automated system for information support for scientific research is defined as a key quality characteristic. A quantitative measure of information resource relevance – the probability of timely publication of scientific information materials – is proposed, and an algorithm for calculating its assessment is presented. The obtained results support decision-making in developing strategies and tactics for rational management of an information resource, taking into account the dynamics of the flow of its constituent materials.
Keywords:information resource, information support for scientific research, information resource quality, information resource relevance, timeliness of publication, information resource management.
