OTHER SUBSYSTEMS Technical documentation - This represents a complete registration of the admittance of the technical documentation of special importance, microfilming in microfiche technology, up to the processing of the contents of the microfiches and their transfer for lasting storage in the repository. The reviews enable insight according to objects, sub-objects, with a total number of microfiches and photos. Potential holders of archive materials - Considering that significant archive materials are located at private holders, it is foreseen to provide for them basic registration, documentation of the contents of this archive materials, the quantity, time of performed visits to the holders and protocols from the visits. 4. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE RESEARCH This paper presents the current results from the development of the integrated information system for the Archives of Macedonia. The implementation and the preliminary results are a promising base for further development of this system. Future development of the system will be in two directions: 1. In the theoretical field: - Research in the application of various search algorithms by using fuzzy logic and neuron based networks. It is expected that this approach should enable a faster and more flexible data search, as well as a possibility for case-sensitive searches; - Research in the field of multimedia systems, enabling mass processing, storage and searching of archive materials; - Theoretical preconditions for developing an application for genealogical trees, based upon the oldest censuses of the population and source registers (of newly born, married and deceased). 2. In the application field: - Upgrading the system with a microfilm computer port; - Development of a computer system for scanning and searching through the especially important archive fonds and collections; - Completion of the application of office and archive, testing, distribution to users and connection with the subsystem for external service. - Development of an application for chronology of contemporary events. - Preparation of a study for connection of the existing computer network with Internet and possibilities for searching and receiving documents through Internet. - Preparation of a study on CD-ROM for the Archives of Macedonia. 82
