Usability, Interaction, and Visualization
The trends for usability, interaction, and visualization consider interoperability. Scholars showed that the European Commission (EC) are promoting networked enterprise information system interoperability (Agostinho et al., 2015, p. 5). They are complementing research in the U.S. and Asia to become “breeding environments towards novel knowledge-based approaches that could improve a future model-driven sustainable interoperability” (Agostinho et al., 2015, p. 5). This shows the international concern for having infrastructures and standards that can interact across physical borders. The future indicates increasing sharing of knowledge and resources, in order to come up with standards and systems that

Personal Opinions on IT Trends
Data Value Chain Management I think that data mining is one of the main concerns of data value chain management. I believe that managers should grapple with the ethical issues of data mining and provide criteria for ethical data mining practices. If the company is using information that customers willingly give, then this is not considered as big data mining. If, however, they tap data from other companies and use that for their own marketing purposes, they need to consider how to best approach customers without them complaining of privacy and confidentiality breaches. In addition, data mining is an important aspect of the business, which will continue affecting the development of new products/services or the modification of existing ones. Managers should find ways of collecting data that is most useful for business decisions, so that they would not be overwhelmed of the breadth and depth of consumer data.
Context Awareness Context awareness will further change how ICTs are designed and developed. Right now, many people are becoming both localized and globalized in their business concerns. I think that the concept of going glocal is not even a sufficient term to capture the changing interactions and links between global and local business and IT concerns. The fluidity of markets, among other factors,
Big data analytics can be used by company to make informed business decision by examining large amount of varied data to get customer preferences, market trends and other useful information. Company can use it to explore new revenue opportunities, improved operational efficiency, better customer service and competitive advantages over rivals.
n regards to the article,by Joseph Turow, "The Daily You", Joseph Turow discusses and explains data mining. In addition, in what ways data mining effects us the consumers. As he mentioned, data mining is, "The practice by such digital media giants as Google and Facebook track every move by internet users and sell that information to marketers who use it to construct advertisements that are tailor-made for their recipients." Moreover,he asserts how advertisings methods change the ways consumers view themselves. Speaking upon that, Joseph Turow uses examples to demonstrate how marketers gain information about consumers through internet activity. For instance, he mentions two parents Larry and Rhonda, a family consisting of three children
Interoperability is defined as the aptitude of one system to perform work in integration with other systems without asking for several hard work and effort. Interoperability turns out to be a quality of enhancing significance for information technology to make the
Interoperability is an organization describe as the ability of different information technology systems and software application to be able to communicate, exchange many types of data, and use that information that has been exchanged. Dick schoech explain his point of the article to have future social worker understand the changes that are being made with service delivery. He goes on to explain that since the main focus of his paper is on the impact of global data interchange. The difficult technical issues surrounding user authentication, security, and privacy as well ( interoperability," 2010). Interoperability is one of the most critical concept facing the adoption and implantation of enhancing electronic information technologies into the health and human services as well. The article explains that historically, the real power of technological innovation is always due to link, through railroad, telephones, and electronic
Interoperability plays a very vital role in the event of a terrorist attack or a natural disaster. To gain a better understanding, one must understand what interoperability is. Interoperability is described as the ability to convey information from one agency to the next as efficiently and effectively as possible. This information is then used to ensure emergency personnel respond to an incident as adequately as possible ( Walsh, Christen Jr., Lord, & Miller, 2010, p. 124).
Interoperability is the way data is able to be exchanged between systems and devices, and is able to be interpreted and understood by a user. This is important to us because this means that our office is able to communicate safely and effectively to other organizations pertaining to the delivery of health care for individuals.
The second model of interoperability is the Network Model. With this model central guidelines and standards have been instituted for organizations to become part of the global infrastructure. The network model of interoperability is to develop a plan based on the clients’ needs and wants. This technology would analyze the client’s problems and preferences and find appropriate service options. This model could screen clients based on matching their needs and the expertise of a worker, by the number of available services provided by the agency, or client expectations. Interoperability technology has the potential to improve service delivery to the infrastructures connected
Interoperability can be linked to early civilization times when people would network, exchange goods and travel by long distances. There are two definitions that explain the functioning of interoperability. The first is having the ability of two or more systems to exchange information and the ability of those systems to use the information that has been exchanged (Fridsma, 2013). Interoperability has three core fundamentals: Foundational, structural, and semantic.
I agree that it is permissible for every corporation to utilize big data and analytics to gain a competitive advantage, but under strict rules and guidelines to protect
There are several different methods to implement interoperability. Many organizations have created their own interoperability methods. One of the methods of interoperability is technical interoperability, which is the ability for different technologies to communicate and exchange data-based upon well-defined interface standards. The second is semantic interoperability, which is the ability to
Chapter 9: Global Information Systems Why go Global? –Customers demand integrated worldwide services. Example: shoe company. Prerequisites to the success of a global information system: -Clear understanding of factors such as customs, laws, technological issues, and local business needs and practices. Airline reservation systems- first large-scale interactive global system Global products-Products or services that have been standardized for all markets. Manufacturer might “regionalize” operations Globalization- important factor in purchasing and supply chain Global Information Systems at Rohm & Haas: Part of Dow Chemical Production units in many different countries Overhauled its global information system: By upgrading the
Big data describes large scale data sets which are analyzed, using algorithms, to determine and eventually predict patterns in human behavior, interactions and the environment (oed.com). Big data is used by government entities to protect against terrorism as well as commercial entities for marketing. Big data needs ethical standards to prevent violations of four central principles, which are privacy, confidentiality, transparency, and identity (Richards 395). Big data is awareness and empowers those who control it. This revolution in information enables companies to shape consumer identity by influencing every interaction the user has with their service. Due to its predictive and persuasive nature, restrictions are necessary for consumers to
In this section, we provide an overview of the number of interactive visualization tools that support EHR. The summary includes an overall goal of the system and a brief description of the visualization.
With the increased and widespread use of technologies, interest in data mining has increased rapidly. Companies are now utilized data mining techniques to exam their database looking for trends, relationships, and outcomes to enhance their overall operations and discover new patterns that may allow them to better serve their customers. Data mining provides numerous benefits to businesses, government, society as well as individual persons. However, like many technologies, there are negative things that caused by data mining such as invasion of privacy right. This paper tries to explore the advantages as well as the disadvantages of data mining. In addition, the ethical and global issues regarding the use of data mining
An information system is only useful to all of its stakeholders if targeted users consider it usable. The importance of usability in technology adoption and usage is underscored by the dedication of substantial amount of HCI research to provide definitions, propose techniques, methods and guidelines for improving it [1, 6]. Although there is no widely agreed upon definition for usability, in this paper, we adopt the ISO definition given as: “the extent to which a product can be used by specified users to achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction in a specified context of use” [21].
