Please join us on Thursday 25th of March for Mining Future Salon: Understanding Information Flow In The Mobile Corporation with MIT Professor Sandy Pentland. Please RSVP http://bit.ly/amkhve
Abstract: Mobile
phones, laptops, and other digital devices form a network of sensors, recording
their user's location, time, who else is nearby, as well communication
patterns. We can `reality mine' this data to better understand and
predict human behavior within the corporation, and improve coordination, job
satisfaction, and productivity. In more than a dozen case studies we have
found that this `reality mining' approach to management often uncovers dramatic
possibilities for improvement in both job satisfaction and productivity, by
allowing more effective combination of face-to-face and digital communications.
