241323 -
241324 - Called and talked to Doug at home.
241325 -
241330 - Doug discussed SDS with Pat yesterday, and indicated today that Pat
241331 - commented favorably on SDS for supporting KM, which is set out in
241332 - Doug's 1972 paper reviewed on 000327. ref SDS 24 3971  This aligns
241333 - with the meeting at SRI on 000725, ref SDS 32 0050, and Pat's letter
241334 - on 010111. ref SDS 81 3X4I
241335 -
241336 -     Doug advised that Pat was not aware SDS is applied by using a
241337 -     Communication Manager, per telecon on 010111. ref SDS 83 RL6O
241338 - ..
241339 - Doug feels the SRI research group for Business Intelligence is a
241340 - good place to study SDS and Communication Metrics.  This aligns with
241341 - Doug's comments in the telecon on 010111. ref SDS 83 P26L  Today, he
241342 - indicated that this group might seek funds to research SDS, but not to
241343 - sponsor application at SRI.  This fits research proposals to SRI on
241344 - 001011, ref SDS 39 0001, set for discussion with Curt in the agenda,
241345 - ref DIP 10 B8RW, prepared on 010104. ref SDS 78 D67M
241346 -
241347 - Doug indicated he will visit with the Business Intelligence group
241348 - about researching SDS and Communication Metrics for providing
241349 - effective business "intelligence," as called out on welchco.com....

241351 -                 http://www.welchco.com
241352 -
241353 - "Business Intelligence" was reviewed previously on 980226. ref SDS 9
241354 - 0001
241355 -
241356 - Doug noted that application of SDS at SRI would have to occur within
241357 - well defined boundaries.
241358 -
241359 - Project management provides a framework to set boundaries for applying
241360 - SDS.  See for example report by USACE on using SDS to support project
241361 - management. ref DRP 5 6172  Scope of services on the proposed agenda
241362 - to discuss with SRI defines boundaries. ref DIP 10 00UP
241363 -
241364 - Additionally, on 000829 Pat Lincoln related that Curt Carlson wants to
241365 - improve SRI's general management. ref SDS 34 MJ6F  Recently, on 010111
241366 - Pat noted in a letter that SDS can do this. ref SDS 81 3X4I  SDS
241367 - improves management immediately throughout an organization within the
241368 - parameters of KM, as set out in Doug's 1972 paper cited on 000327.

241373 - Doug will visit with Carla Woodworth about SDS for SRI project
241374 - management.  Carla was mentioned on 001017 for supporting Doug's OHS
241375 - project at SRI. ref SDS 41 01DP
241376 - ..
241377 - Doug noted that using SDS to support SRI projects would have to
241378 - be approved by a project sponsor.
241379 -
241380 - Doug thinks the OHS/DKR project is a good place to use SDS.  It would
241381 - extend the record of the past year, reported on 001017. ref SDS 41

260509 - ref SDS 72 KI6O
260510 -
260511 - Doug asked how this would advance education on KM?
260512 -
260513 - We discussed encouraging people to discover the benefits of KM by
260514 - doing KM, proposed to the DKR team in a letter on 001121, ref SDS 58
260515 - XU8I, based on a prior letter on 001004. ref SDS 38 P86I  This starts
260516 - by linking to relevant portions of the record, as Doug called out on
260517 - 001025. ref SDS 44 00VU
260518 -
260519 - Since people will generally not do this on their own, as shown by the
260520 - record of the DKR team, for example, on 001126, ref SDS 62 T63N, we
260521 - need a mechanism to pay people to discover the benefit of "being
260522 - prepared," so they will continue this in their work practice, as
260523 - explained on 950327. ref SDS 4 8822
260524 -
260525 - Since SRI is putting up funds for an Engelbart scholarship, this can
260526 - be offered through an essay competition on the future of technology
260527 - based on linking to the origins of the PC and the meaning of Doug's
260528 - Bootstrap concept of ABC improvement, as posed in the record of the
260529 - event at SRI on 001220 honoring Doug for winning the National Medal of
260530 - Technology. ref SDS 72 KI6O
260531 -
260532 - Doug noted SRI is supporting a fellowship fund, not a scholarship.
260533 -
260534 - Possibly the fellowship idea can be expanded into a scholarship, with
260535 - support from other businesses who want to promote KM, but so far have
260536 - been afraid to actually do KM.  It is easier to put money to test an
260537 - idea on other people's time, especially students, than to invest
260538 - personal time to test the idea directly on one's own time.
260539 -
260540 - This is part of the agenda for meeting with Curt, ref DIP 10 TI7I, per
260541 - letter to Vicky on 010104. ref SDS 78 TR3O

360817 -     On 000623 Jack Park reviewed issues about adding links to original
360818 -     files on the web. ref SDS 29 5475  Earlier on 000601 Doug wants
360819 -     anchors for addressability, ref SDS 28 2760, originally set as a
360820 -     goal on 000405. ref SDS 25 2484
360821 - ..
360822 - Doug feels this new linking method can support SDS.
360823 -
360824 -     Doug explained a hashing method of linking to an original source
360825 -     without changing the source by adding anchors, as in SDS records.
360826 -
360827 -     Evidently a separate file is created with a string from a line in
360828 -     the target file that is long enough to be unique.  This index is
360829 -     linked in the object file where an anchor is entered.  The code
360830 -     that calls the link, opens the index at the text string, then
360831 -     grabs the text string and executes a "find" operation to locate
360832 -     the string in the target file on the Internet.
360833 -
360834 -       [On 010122 Jack Park reports this is a common solution.
360835 -       ref SDS 88 SQ5G
360836 -
360837 - We discussed the risk people take relying on links to other people's
360838 - Internet resources.  Web locations come and go.  Servers are up and
360839 - down.  Improvements are made that reduce capability and destroy access
360840 - at the whim of others due to bumbling.
360841 -
360842 - Therefore information that is important to decisions needs to be
360843 - gathered from all sources, and incorporated into the decision maker's
360844 - record with attribution, so that support, including context, is
360845 - permanently linked to the record of action, under the criteria of
360846 - alignment with original sources, cited in POIMS, ref OF 1 034J  ISO
360847 - criteria reviewed on 950721 call for traceability. ref SDS 6 1740
360848 -
360849 -     The big issue is how quickly can people grab up what they need
360850 -     from anywhere, including the web, and organize it into the context
360851 -     of daily planning and work performance?  How quickly and
360852 -     thoroughly can the record be organized to assemble chronologies of
360853 -     cause and effect based on context?  Normally, doing things
360854 -     quickly, reduces thoroughness, and being thorough takes more time,
360855 -     which presents a KM dilemma.  On 001105 Henry van Eykan reported
360856 -     that SDS does this better than other methods. ref SDS 48 WG6F
360857 -     Jack Park plans to create an engine to improve this feature,
360858 -     reported on 001130. ref SDS 64 0001
360859 -
360860 - Doug agrees that control of the basis for decisions and actions is
360861 - important.  He feels this new linking technology developed in Israel,
360862 - can make SDS a more powerful and useful DKR.
360863 -
360864 - I will try to attend the meeting on Monday, 010122.

431435 - We reviewed briefly the objective of meeting with Curt.  As with
431436 - medical practice, SRI wants to improve internal management, including
431437 - coordination and collaboration, per Pat's letter on 010111.
431438 - ref SDS 81 EF6M  A lot can be done by enhancing admin support, as seen
431439 - from the record on 010108, ref SDS 79 0001, and per telecon with Doug
431440 - Engelbart on 010111 explaining the need to develop a role for aligning
