M. Hudon
This extended version of a paper presented at the 30th Annual Conference of the American Society of Indexers (Seattle, 13-16 May 1998) presents an overview of common problems affecting the transfer of information across natural languages. A brief description of the most promising solutions for overcoming information retrieval difficulties in worldwide multilingual networks is provided. Selected quotes dating back to the 1970s and early 1980s show that problems and solutions in this area remain pretty much the same today as they were then.

Many businesses are required to hold large amounts of electronic data over a long period of time. This paper investigates what indexing tools and approaches are likely to produce the most practical benefit for supporting business tasks in such a complex information environment.

Images are being recognized as an important method of information transfer. Image indexing thus warrants the same kind of serious attention that is given to text analysis and indexing. Levels of analysis, the interpretation of relationships between the elements in an image, and appropriate vocabulary are the central problems. Commonsense guidelines such as rigorous vocabulary control help, but the essential factor is that image storage and retrieval must be valued.
