[en] INIS is the system making the INIS Atomindex and carrying out the distribution of informations by the international cooperation of participating countries centering around the IAEA. In this report, the present state and future perspective of this system are explained. The INIS observed the tenth anniversary in 1980. The first issue was a small pamphlet of 24 pages publishing 147 papers which arrived before April 1, 1970. The organ in each country collects the literatures published in that country, thus the information file of high comprehensiveness and worldwide scale can be obtained. Also the burden of collecting and processing costs is shared corresponding to the quantity by large and small countries. Efforts have been exerted to put at same level and homogenize various countries by preparing manuals and holding seminars. As of October, 1980, 75 countries and organizations participate in the INIS, and 45 countries execute the input. The cumulative number reached 550,000 cases, and 75,000 cases were entered in 1979. The INIS was designed as the system utilizing computers. The flow of INIS works and the recent contents of INIS data base are shown. The introduction of data flagging, the expansion of the subject range to the medical application of ionizing radiation and radioisotopes, descriptors, thesauruses, INIS Atomindex, and the main subjects for the future development are described.

[en] The goal of the application is to assist the user of the system in constructing a search profile which gives the correct answers to a client. A side-effect is the mentioning of reminders in a logical order to the editor of the search profile. Expert systems in general, and the above-described system in particular, can help to improve the quality of the use of data banks. These systems can also assist in linking the keywords and the aspects to an incident during data base updating, in the analysis of causes and effects of incidents and in improving safety measures to prevent incidents with hazardous materials.
