We would like to take advantage of this occasion to inform all the authors that JISTEM Journal of Information Systems and Technology Management has implemented the DOI number. DOI - Digital Object Identifier is a numeric identification system for internet documents. It's a unique and exclusive number, attached to all and any text published on the web. It can be used with citation intention and article recovery in the on-line environment. Every article published in JISTEM, starting with the first issue in 2004, will receive a DOI number (www.doi.org) that you can find just below the title and author of the article. According to information from CNPq, Lattes Platform users will be able to include the DOI when filling out information about their scientific publications on Lattes. When the researcher enters this number, the Lattes Platform will access the DOI data-base and automatically fill in the title, year, issue, edition, page numbers and the name of the first author.
