The paper summarizes building electronic ethnological databases in the Institute of Ethnology of the SAS since the end of 1980s till the present time. The author considers the period from the first half of 1990s to be oriented on testing the ways of utilizing PCs in building of the databases of the ethnological data. During this period the workers of the Institute started to use the electronic databases to build electronic catalogues belonging to the archive funds of the Institute of Ethnology, to create the bibliography of Slovak ethnology and funds of electronic documents. The contribution characterizes single projects which had been realized in the Institute in the framework of the mentioned problems. In conclusion the author introduces the principles of the building electronic database of the ethnological information based on the experiences of the Institute of Ethnology.

The development of information and telecommunication technologies contributes to the creation of new organisational structures, including network and virtual organisations, technology parks and fractals. Different organisations can cooperate only if the coordination of their processes and integration of their systems have been established in advance. The paper discusses solutions for information resource integration. It also explains why integration is indispensable and the elaboration of systems to enable heterogeneous information resources to be linked is necessary. Since new organisational structures change dynamically, traditional integrated solutions based on central databases are not appropriate because they are neither flexible nor scalable. So, new systems enabling the exchange of dispersed data and information must be developed. The paper describes the characteristics of such systems. It also proposes and discusses architecture of the model for heterogeneous information resources integration.

In the information society, there exists an irresistible need, one may even say a necessity, to acquire and comprehend knowledge. Equipped with a sufficient level of knowledge and defined rules of inference, we are able to undertake specific decisions. In order to attain better representation and exploration of the ever expanding knowledge resources and to undertake appropriate decisions, we create constantly improved means of representing knowledge and enhanced methods of modelling situations for the real world. The language of classical logic is an appropriate tool for the formal description of statistical incidents. Incidents taking place in time require a novelapproach. The power of expression, enabling a formal description of the time component, is made possible by the language of temporal logic.

Advanced informatics systems should reflect the diversity of its users and their needs. An important part of the development process is to study the expectations of its users. This, in result, enables the creation of many different models reflecting specific aspects of such a system.

There are currently numerous management methods and their number is still growing. With this tendency the problem of monitoring, perception and adoption grows as well. Identifying and supporting contemporary search is therefore current both in theoretical and practical spheres. This paper focuses on identification of trends in management that can be (on the current level of knowledge) regarded as the most modern and perspective. Such trends are process management, direction of bionic and holistic thinking, finding performance excellence and prominence, computerization and technology management. Individual movements are characterized by the most prominent representative methods, especially in terms of their functional utility for managers. The interpretation also provides a conceptual evaluation of advantages and disadvantages of the most important methods and their perspective is outlined in the current crisis and turbulent conditions of globalized economy.

Media information manipulation in the present days has lost its features of an extraordinary, extremely non-ethical and mainly inacceptable banned mean. Information manipulation has been used everywhere where there are for a particular subject no reasons, opportunities, possibilities and means from the view of its particular (utilitarian) interests to purposely influence attitudes, opinions, motivation and behaviour of individuals and social groups. To conclude and to do it gently, it is to be called the manipulation with the public opinion. When examining particular aspects of this issue it is impossible to rely upon the terminology which would be sufficiently complex, in Slovak conditions stable and generally accepted. This fact causes it is impossible to start examining particular problems, as before doing so it is necessary to explain and define the basic points and draw the line of a possible effective approach. The effect of manipulation is the change of an existing or creation of a new evaluating viewpoint and relation of the recipient to something definite what influences (manipulates) its future actions, behaviour, opinions and attitudes. The viewpoint from the aspect of basic information and communication knowledge theory is crucial: if some of the real information systems reach the dominant mass media position and are used as the source of prevailing inadequate or redundant information, logically, instead of processes deepening the composition of information system - such as human consciousness (shaping and development of personality, its autonomy and integrity), it initiates the growth of entropy in mind. It is true that each piece of inadequate information, which is 'pressed' on the structure of system, changes it as a whole and from the human viewpoint devalues the system as it weakens its ability to regenerate. Positive, full-value informedness can be achieved only through the exchange of adequate and additive information.
