161 OPTIMIZATION PROPOSAL FOR BIBLIOGRAPHIC RESOURCES MANAGEMENT OF DOCTORAL SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH PROJECTS Remus-Cristian VĂIDĂHĂZAN  Babeş-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Doctoral School Corresponding author: 0723023842, e-mail: vaidahazan@gmail.com Iacob HANȚIU Babeş-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Doctoral School iacobhantiu@gmail.com Abstract: General skills of computer usage and specific knowledge of applying some software are very important for a PhD student's time management. To be effective in our research we need efficient management of all bibliographical sources that we work with throughout the project. There are many proposals on how to index and analyse resources. We have built a useful strategy that it doesn't depends by one software only, it is free and we think that it is very effective in the management of information with which we operated until now to achieve doctoral thesis. In this paper we describe how we integrated efficiently into our strategy functions of software for Android platform (Adobe Reader, Google Translate) and software for Windows 7 (Adobe Reader, Capture2Text, Microsoft Excel). We believe that the method used by us increases the efficiency of the management of bibliographic sources and the process of editing the necessary materials for research. Also, the use of software on Android platform provides a viable working solution when we do not have a computer with us. Key words: research, optimization, project, management, references. * * * * * * INTRODUCTION General skills of computer usage and specific knowledge of applying some software are very important for a PhD student's time management. A sufficient amount of IT knowledge along with an appropriate planning of interdependencies that are created between specialized and technical requirements it is mandatory in order to achieve scientific product in a short amount of time. Bibliographic information for a research project is practically limitless considering today's technology. Storage in both computer and library shelves will fill quickly. However, the biggest problem it is not the storage space. The biggest problem is the multiple bonds of interdependence existing between all sources of information and the need to access accurately, if necessary, any part from any source you found it. We all know that resources will not be accessed only once in the process of research. During the development process of our work we need to go back several times to some bibliographic sources and sometimes we have to find the page that contains the sentence we quoted to reconsider all the information preceding a paragraph. Writing only the title and author of the reference is not enough to help us find that source after several weeks or months (Literature searching for dissertations in Management and Business, 2011). To be effective in our research we need efficient management of all bibliographical sources that we work with throughout the project. There are many proposals on how to index and analyse resources. Virtually, every researcher has a preferred strategy. Whichever we use, it should help us to organize our resources in order to process and retrieve information efficiently and with a time record. Multiple databases give us the possibility to search by keywords and export the results in a variety of ways (Bridle, 2014). Software for this kind of management occurs periodically (Data  Remus-Cristian VĂIDĂHĂZAN
