No one company has written the book on CRM.
And rightly so, says this author, whose
examination of how companies practice this
much-talked about discipline led him to develop
comprehensive guidelines for enhancing a
company's returns from CRM.

That few companies are achieving the results they
expected from their investment in Customer
Relationship Management (CRM) is not news. That
most companies continue to invest in CRM without a
roadmap for increasing shareholder value or even for
forging closer customer relationships is also not
surprising, since there are few best practices in CRM
for companies to follow. In fact, based on our own
research and consulting, and a recent examination of
best practices in 35 Canadian and U.S. corporations,
we could not find one company that excels in every
dimension of CRM. However, we did find examples of
one or two specific best practices in individual
companies. This article discusses these selected best
practices, which, we believe, companies should consider
when trying to improve the performance of their CRM
initiatives. It also discuss the changing role of senior
managers that are developing a relationship-oriented
organization
A definition and a vision
There are many definitions for CRM, and best-
practice companies adopt one that is shared across
the organization. Otherwise, the very term "CRM"
will conjure up many things to different people and
lead to confusion. These companies see CRM as a
series of strategies and processes that support and
execute a relationship vision for the enterprise. In
their eyes, CRM is a series of strategies and processes
that create new and mutual value for individual
customers, builds preference for their organizations
and improves business results over a lifetime of
association with their customers.
With this definition, an organization can focus on
developing the only asset of the enterprise that matters
in the long term, progressively deeper relationships with
valuable customers. By sharing the definition, they can
put the customer first and avoid sending their staff into
cycles of interminable CRM programming.
These organizations then create a vision for how CRM
will change their companies. Some develop the vision
according to attributes that are important to both the
customer and the company. These include attributes that
affect customers' perceptions of value, how they can
bond with the organization, product and company
preference and purchase intent.
This vision sometimes changes as the firm gains
experience in CRM and as technology makes new things
possible. For example, at a major Canadian bank, the
vision has evolved. Initially the vision was associated
with the development of customer information ...

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

“An Outlook of the Ongoing and Future Relationship between Blockchain Technologies and Process-aware Information Systems.” Invited talk at the joint workshop on Blockchain for Information Systems (BC4IS) and Blockchain for Trusted Data Sharing (B4TDS), co-located with with the 36th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE), 3 June 2024, Limassol, Cyprus.
CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
