    This is a lecture paper presented at the Tenth Chemical Information Seminar titled Scientific and technical information activities in Germany. The author, a member of BMFT of German Government, described prospects on development of chemical information in science and technology, governmental policies of subsidizing and future planning through the reuiew of the way Germany has been taking. He stressed that in chemical field research works or discoveries should be undertaken to meet future demands by using human intelligence and thoughts, and to this end future of chemical information can exist. He said that comprehensive chemical information system under international cooperation is really called for, proposed subsidizing policies the Government should take and four thema on what future provision of chemical information should be.

    Activities about documenting photographs for studies of art history in Research Center for Buddhist Art, Nara National Museum are described. The center has developed a descriptive schema based on a object-photograph relation model, a classification schedule employing thesaurus-like index and cataloging rules including naming rules and lists of terms which have faceted structure. Through these activities, it is clear that a generic theory of documentation is necessary.

    JICST's machine translation system comprises a translation dictionary, grammatical rules, and translation execution software. In machine translation processing, a Japanese input sentence is first subjected to Japanese morphological analysis. Syntactic analysis, syntactic transfer, and syntactic generation are then carried out, applying the grammatical rules to the output from the morphological analysis operation. Next, English morphological generation is performed, and an English output sentence is created. Grammatical rules for machine translation processing were developed by analyzing various language phenomena and performing frequency and statistical processing with abstract sentences from science and technology papers.

    The current rapid pace of development in science and technology has brought a continuos expansion of quality and quantity of scientific and technical information. In order to process such information properly and give it a self-ordering system, and moreover to make the system grow, the aproach of self-organization will become a very important concept in the field of information processing. We are carrying out the study of this self-organizing information base system from the viewpoints of an automatic database compilation system, self-organizing function and intelligent interface.
