Miran Petek, Boštjan Batič, Stašo Vobič, Vojko Ambrožič, Matjaž Cigrovski, Miro Kolarič

IZUM and libraries offer their users numerous information services and most of them require user login. Login is carried out on the basis of a username and password and enables the user’s authentication and authorisation. IZUM manages such a mechanism based on identity data and other information about the members within the COBISS system. This year, a single sign-on system was introduced via the Shibboleth software component and the COBISS AAI Federation.

Mobilna aplikacija naj služi uporabnikom

Davor Bračko

The main aim of a mobile app should be to ensure the largest possible degree of success, efficiency and satisfaction experienced by the users when reaching their goals, i.e. usability. In order to achieve it, the designers and developers of mobile apps must consider standards, recommendations and guidelines, which is the right path towards a high-quality product where the user interface and the contents are united into a homogenous whole. Only a mobile app adapted to its users will encourage them to use it and will satisfy their needs.

Boštjan Batič, Davor Šoštarič

The concept of authentication and authorisation infrastructure represents a shift from the standard ways of “omnia mea mecum porto”, where every information service or application (both web and desktop) maintains its own system of user data. A system built on mutual trust separates the authentication part from the authorisation part.

IPv6 – ali ga že potrebujemo?

Dejan Valh

The Internet is the driving force of the modern world. The fundamental technology for its operation is Internet protocol. Internet protocol version 4 (IPv4) was developed forty years ago and not enough address space was planned for today’s demands. Consequently, mechanisms were already starting to form to extend the IPv4 address space and develop the new version 6 (IPv6) in the past millennium.

Večjezičnost v knjižničnih informacijskih sistemih

Petra Bridges

Language is an important factor of economic development; translation and localisation are necessary for the overall progress and economic development. In the European Union, language is key and English is no longer sufficient for the development of a common language policy; they are now striving to achieve a situation where every European would speak at least two foreign languages. In science, the number of publications in the researchers’ mother tongues has increased and publishing in English is no longer a sign of prestige.

History

Boj za slovensko univerzo v letu 1901 v luči časnikov Slovenec in Slovenski narod

At times, they were even very offensive towards the leaders of the opposition party.
