This is rather a knowledge artifact which provides some insight on the currently available solutions. The target audience of this document is the Information management team(s) for various Telecom Operators who deal with the information management solutions and information architectures for telecom service providers.
A Capability Requirements Approach for Predicting Worker Performance in Crowd...Umair ul Hassan
https://www.insight-centre.org/content/capability-requirements-approach-predicting-worker-performance-crowdsourcing
Presented at CollaborateCom 2013
Abstract:
Assigning heterogeneous tasks to workers is an important challenge of crowdsourcing platforms. Current approaches to task assignment have primarily focused on contentbased approaches, qualifications, or work history. We propose an
alternative and complementary approach that focuses on what capabilities workers employ to perform tasks. First, we model various tasks according to the human capabilities required to perform them. Second, we capture the capability traces of the
crowd workers performance on existing tasks. Third, we predict performance of workers on new tasks to make task routing decisions, with the help of capability traces. We evaluate the effectiveness of our approach on three different tasks including fact
verification, image comparison, and information extraction. The results demonstrate that we can predict worker’s performance based on worker capabilities. We also highlight limitations and extensions of the proposed approach.

On the Integration of Symbolic and Sub-symbolic – Explaining by DesignAndrea Omicini
The more intelligent systems based on sub-symbolic techniques pervade our everyday lives, the less human can understand them. This is why symbolic approaches are getting more and more attention in the general effort to make AI interpretable, explainable, and trustable. Understanding the current state of the art of AI techniques integrating symbolic and sub-symbolic approaches is then of paramount importance, nowadays—in particular in the XAI perspective. In this talk we first provides an overview of the main symbolic/sub-symbolic integration techniques, focussing in particular on those targeting explainable AI systems. Then we expand the notion of “explainability by design” to the realm of multi-agent systems, where XAI techniques can play a key role in the engineering of intelligent systems.
UML is the international standard notation for object-oriented analysis and design defined by the Object Management Group. The document provides a history of object-oriented analysis and design methods, from early focus on programming to increasing interest in design and then analysis methods. It discusses some of the seminal methods from the 1980s and 1990s that helped establish object-oriented analysis and design practices, including Booch, Shlaer-Mellor, Coad-Yourdon, OMT, OOSE, and RDD. The document focuses on explaining the Unified Modeling Language notation as well as underlying principles of modeling.
Not just for humans: Explanation for agent-to-agent communicationAndrea Omicini
Once precisely defined so as to include just the explanation’s act, the notion of explanation should be regarded as a central notion in the engineering of intelligent system—not just as an add-on to make them understandable to humans. Based on symbolic AI techniques to match intuitive and rational cognition, explanation should be exploited as a fundamental tool for inter-agent communication among heterogeneous agents in open multi-agent systems. More generally, explanation-ready agents should work as the basic components in the engineering of intelligent systems integrating both symbolic and sub-/non-symbolic AI techniques.

Enterprise and Data Mining Ontology Integration to Extract Actionable Knowled...hamidnazary2002
This document discusses integrating enterprise and data mining ontologies to extract actionable knowledge. It notes that existing data mining techniques provide large volumes of knowledge but much of it is not useful for making business decisions. The objectives are to 1) design an artifact to formally apply business understanding in data mining and 2) semi-automate the business understanding phase to help users. The expected outcomes are an enterprise ontology and relations between enterprise and data mining ontologies to bridge the gap between business needs and data mining results.

This document discusses the need to critically examine historical figures rather than blindly worshipping them as heroes. It argues that views of individuals and their significance can change over time as society's understanding evolves. Specifically, it analyzes several prominent Filipino figures from history like Rizal, Aguinaldo, Bonifacio and others, pointing out aspects of their actions and legacies that do not deserve uncritical honor. The document advocates rediscovering other heroes from the past who have been overshadowed and recognizing present-day heroes working for current needs, rather than limiting views of heroism to figures of the past.

This document discusses how Westernization and Spanish colonialism shaped Filipino identity and culture. It argues that Spanish colonization was more effective than other Asian colonizers at eroding native cultures and imposing Catholicism. The Spanish friars played a central role in governing the colonies and used their political, economic and religious influence to develop obedient colonials and discourage independent thinking. They suppressed native cultures and stressed conformity, isolation and reliance on religion over initiative and worldly ideas. This led to a crisis of identity as Westernization blurred perceptions of exploitation and a true national consciousness was slow to develop.
This document outlines the key differences between pidgins and creoles. It begins with definitions, noting that pidgins are simplified languages used for communication between groups that don't share a common language, while creoles have developed from pidgins into stable first languages. It then covers the origins and theories of development of pidgins and creoles, followed by their distinguishing characteristics and stages of development. Pidgins are described as unstable, socially limited languages, whereas creoles have expanded vocabularies and more complex grammars as stable first languages.
How do social technologies change knowledge worker business processes km me...Martin Sumner-Smith
This document discusses how social technologies may change the business processes of knowledge workers. It begins by defining knowledge workers and noting that while knowledge work depends on social interactions, the best way to support knowledge work with technology is unclear. New social networking approaches may provide useful ways to support knowledge workers. The document then discusses how enterprise content management (ECM) solutions have traditionally addressed unstructured data and processes as well as knowledge management. ECM now encompasses previously separate technologies and everything that can be digitized will eventually become digital. The document examines different dimensions involved in ECM including processes, content, people, and information spectrum. It analyzes how integrating ECM with business processes can increase efficiency and benefits. The key roles of knowledge makers
Developer workflow analysis and ownership management present comprehension challenges for software ecosystems and global software engineering. Dark matter exists because tools are not fully integrated, logging is not designed for analysis, and developer workflow is unstructured. Probabilistic models using machine learning and heuristics can help associate activities with work items to address this. Ownership management challenges include ownership decay, asset subclassing, team-level ownership, and providing explainable recommendations.
Goal Dynamics_From System Dynamics to ImplementationAmjad Adib
1) The document describes a PhD research proposal on developing dynamic modeling methods for goal dynamics and multi-agent systems.
2) The research aims to analyze and capture goal dynamics in social contexts and provide intelligent agents that can handle complex, distributed events in real-time.
3) The methodology involves defining artifacts and processes, modeling tools, and evaluating the results against objectives through case studies and simulations.
Exploration & Promotion: Implementation Strategies of Corporate Social SoftwareAlexander Stocker
The document discusses two archetypes for adopting corporate social software:
1) Exploration - The potential uses of new software are not fully known and must be explored over time through continuous identification of feasible usage scenarios. This allows uses to evolve organically.
2) Promotion - Usage scenarios are clearly defined and communicated upfront through targeted training. There is an expectation of certain benefits aligned with business goals.
Both strategies may be used together, with Exploration suited for newer technologies and Promotion better for more established software where uses are known.

The document describes a beacon light optic that reduces power consumption and battery capacity needs through using total internal reflection and an arrangement of overlapping reflective surface segments. The optic allows a light emitting element placed in front of the entrance surface to efficiently guide light through the entrance area and out the exit area. Additional details are provided on the reflective surfaces, entrance and exit areas, and positioning of the light emitting element to enable the compact and cost-effective beacon light.
The case discusses Edward Snowden, a former NSA contractor who leaked classified information about mass surveillance programs to journalists in 2013. He contacted journalists Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras to disclose secret NSA documents, meeting them in Hong Kong. The documents revealed that the NSA was collecting phone records and metadata of millions of Americans under Section 215 of the Patriot Act. Snowden's leaks sparked a major debate about government surveillance and privacy worldwide.

2. 2
Agenda
Action Design Research
(Too) many Tools, Frameworks,
Modelling Languages
Productivity of Computers &
Creativity of Humans
Ontology, Semantics & Semiotics
Let’s go to the lab…
All models are wrong, some are
useful
Make it so…
8. 8
Many Notations
Many Tools
Many Frameworks
Many (Types) of Diagrams
…
PLUS
Computers are Smart at Data Processing
BUT
Dumb at Creativity
WHILE
Humans are Smart at Creativity
BUT
Dumb at Data Processing
AND
Enterprises need Both … in Harmony !
Complication
9. 9
Question
“How can we bring the productivity of computers to
the creativity of humans in enterprise modelling,
engineering and architecture?”
Aspects to consider in addressing the question:
Limiting the amount of data to avoid information
overload (for humans)
Guaranteeing everyone involved understands
the diagrams relevant to them
Guaranteeing that everyone involved has the
same interpretation.
10. 10
How to go about it (Answer to the Question)
In their (mental) models,
Humans work with Concepts
Computers work with Structures
For that we need shared set of concepts backed
by a computable theory about the world.
In 1984, John Sowa published a book called
“Conceptual Structures – Information Processing
in Mind and Machine”, in which he shows how
this can be achieved.
This work spawned the discipline of ontology in
computer science.
11. 11
How to apply it?
Let’s take the Way of LEADing Practice:
And go into the Lab…
12. 12
But first…
An introduction to:
Semantics
Ontology
Semiotics
And how they relate to:
Enterprise Modelling
Enterprise Engineering
Enterprise Architecture
13. 13
Ontology as a foundation for modelling
Social World Pragmatics Ontology
15. 15
What is Ontology?
Context
Rule of 3
Object Object
relation
Ontology is an ancient science that deals with the
structure of the world.
An ontology is an unambiguous semantic structure
defining a universe of discourse related to a context.
38. 51
Semiotics: What is a Model?
A model is a symbol that stands for a reality, which is called the referent.
It evokes concepts in the mind of the observer that stand for this reality.
The Symbol-Concept-Referent triangle is called the semiotic triangle.
40. 53
Semiotic Triangle: Business World
Notations used in Models (with clear defined semantic relations)
and data flow) is needed to produce accurate and useful process and service models.
Figure 5 presents an example of such an eXtended BPMN diagram. This example
contains business, information, and data objects; identifying “issue”, “caller info”, and
“survey”, respectively.

Semiotic Triangle: Business World
different objects is very relevant as it provides the means to use process notations for
the realization of executable applications and software solutions. This includes relating
the objects to the organization, roles, rules, and compliance aspects, as well as,
business and information flow. The set of rules and modelling techniques associated
with identifying, designing, and relating business, information, and data object types
allows one to fully describe the different relevant object’s behavior and representation.
Understanding this behavior might include an analysis of the business function, roles
and services it delivers. Additionally, its interaction with the business process and
activities (input and output and the associated flow), information (objects, flow),
applications (function, task, service and flow) and data (objects, entities, data services,
and data flow) is needed to produce accurate and useful process and service models.
Figure 5 presents an example of such an eXtended BPMN diagram. This example
contains business, information, and data objects; identifying “issue”, “caller info”, and
“survey”, respectively.
Figure 5: Example of business, information, and data objects.
The ability of having a link between the models of understanding e.g. the process models and
thereby the BPMN diagrams and the models of executions e.g. in software development it
would be UML and if an ERP system exist it would for example be SAP. Such a link between
the BPMN diagrams and SAP solution manager include linking/redocumenting information /
data flow in SAP SolMan, includes mapping the business/data/information object artifacts to
bindings in interface scenarios in SolMan. In order to drill down the various topics that may
arise, the main aspect is to identify the matching fields in SAP Solution Manager. It must be
clear, research and development starts whether SAP Solution Manager and the SAP Gateway
supports addressing the data.

Lessons Learned
“The truth is rarely pure and never simple”
(Oscar Wilde)
“Start by doing what's necessary; then do
what's possible; and suddenly you are doing
the impossible (Francis of Assisi)
“Everything should be made as simple as
possible, but not simpler than that” (att.
Einstein)
“All Models are Wrong BUT Some are Useful”
(George Box)
The LEADing Practice community is the ideal
environment for developing and enhancing a
complex enterprise ontology.
44. 65
Conclusion (Take Away)
Semantics – Making meaning
Ontology – Formalizing meaning
Pragmatics – Sharing meaning
Conceptual Structures – harmonise the creativity of human and
business endevour (“enterprise”) with the productivity of computers
Understanding the thought process behind Ontology and Semantics
(from the ‘live lab session’)
