This paper aims to understand how the research scholars of faculty of applied sciences in the University of Kerala manage personal information through internet services. Personal Information Management(PIM) refers to a set of activities a person perform in order to acquire or create, store, organize, maintain, retrieve, use and distribute personal information for different purposes. Questionnaire method was employed for data collection and out of the 59 respondents, 69.6% females and 30.4% male scholars are using their lap tops for managing personal information. Majority of the respondents prefer e-mail as the most used internet service for personal information management with a mean value 2.41. Majority of the respondents agree that they know more about managing their personal information and apply it on research work. The study also revealed that major difficulties faced by research scholars are inadequate awareness of managing information via Internet. Most of the time research scholars store only that personal information that they want to share with others. Majority always afraid of putting their sensitive personal information at internet services because of privacy concern.Keywords

Examines quantitatively the growth and development of bioinformatics research in India in terms of the publication output as reflected in Web of Science (WoS) database for the period 2006-2010.The bibliographic details of 577bioinformatics data obtained from the WoS database were studied and it was found that among the total bioinformatics contributions, nearly half are from India. Majority of the contributions were multi- authored and the degree of collaboration was 0.93 and most of the publications were in the form of journal articles. BMC Bioinformatics pubhshed by Bio Med Central ranks first position with 28 publications followed by In Silico Biology (lOP press) with 24 publications. IISc, Bengaluru is the most productive bioinformatics research institute in the country followed by ISI, Kolkata. Delhi is the leading state with 6.41% of the total Indian contribution in bioinformatics followed by West Bengal with 5.37% publications. The data set has been found to be not a perfect fit for the Bradford's law of scattering.Keywords
