[Barry's Arts Blog and Update] Barry's Arts Blog and Update: CASTING THE WIDER NET PART II: Data Mining now includes in each folio on each person (and yes, just like you have a credit file, there is a much larger file of information on you that retailers can tap into), relational data on what is sometimes called “tethered individuals” (i.e., family members, neighbors, business colleagues, close friends etc.) By analyzing the data of those people and their profiles and their “relation” to you, Data Miners can get an even better and deeper level of insight into your behavior. Moreover, artificial neural networks (resembling actual biological neural networks in structure) actually learn human behavior patterns through a primitive form of artificial intelligence, and allow increasingly more sophisticated (and accurate) prediction of human behavioral response to specific stimulus (e.g., one advertising approach over another).

[Digital Considerations] Digital Considerations: Knowledge Management and the Academy: The article then goes into a modestly detailed description of the hardware and software used to develop the system, the most important feature, I think, being the “federated data model that leveraged preexisting intuitional data sets to provide more complete views of faculty activities.” To achieve this, CKM tapped “the offices of academic affairs, health sciences, information technology, research, and libraries,” and created OSU:pro and positioned it as a “single-point information resource and institutional strategy for supporting the data needs of AP&T workflow.” 27 Data was gathered from “enterprise sources”¦human resources, the registrar, libraries, research foundation databases” and presented as a federated data source “to provide users with prepopulated and contextualized views of their professional activities.” OSU:pro was then enhanced to allow end users to access the profile and enhance it with data not captured by “authoritative systems.” That is, faculty could login and add “language expertise, service to professional societies, honors and recognitions,” educational degrees, schools and colleges attended, etc. Thus a “straightforward way to add and edit profile information” was included.
