080901 - Follow up
080902 -
080903 - Morris advised this evening he is working more at home now after
080904 - retiring from the Business Unit Manager position he has held the past
080905 - few years for a telecommunication program at Intel.
080906 -
080907 -      Cable Network Operation proposed.........990905, ref SDS 5 0001
080908 -      Budget for new project $150M.............990912, ref SDS 6 0001
080909 -      Working 12 hour days.....................990916, ref SDS 7 0001
080910 -
080911 - He is working now on product development.  Working at home is more
080912 - convenient because it eliminates wasting time commuting to work every
080913 - day.
080914 -
080915 - This reflects reports on 010223 that Intel is downsizing to as a
080916 - result of changes in market conditions. ref SDS 10 V54M   The same
080917 - article reported that the telecom sector has been particularly hard
080918 - hit. ref SDS 10 FM6J  At that time, Intel management was frustrated by
080919 - challenge of predicting what customers will buy. ref SDS 10 WG8O
080920 -
080921 - Earlier on 990525 Morris worried that it is hard to get engineers to
080922 - use good management practices to analyse the work. ref SDS 3 0966
080923 -
080924 - More recently on 020110 he complained that people only use about 5% of
080925 - the features in Microsoft Word and Outlook, which is not enough to
080926 - improve daily management. ref SDS 11 CK4K
080927 -
080928 - Morris has a full schedule with his Intel work, Boy Scouts, church,
080929 - teaching a graduate course in electrical engineering, and he indicated
080930 - this evening that he is on a board of some kind for using ham radios.

080935 - Innovation Needs Circle of Influence to Aid Executive Mind Set
080936 -
080937 - I mentioned the broadcast this evening on CSPAN showing a presentation
080938 - by the Secretary of Defense, Don Rumsfeld, at the War College
080939 - concerning efforts to improve management of DOD by enabling proactive
080940 - problem handling. ref SDS 12 0001
080941 -
080942 - Morris indicated Intel uses similar prodedures.
080943 -
080944 - We did not review this evening the record on 990713 presenting the NSF
080945 - initiative on SDS to colleagues at Intel. ref SDS 4 8966
080946 -
080947 - Morris feels Intel's CEO, Craig Barrett, is a strong advocate for
080948 - experimenting to improve management, productivity and earnings, as
080949 - called out by Andy Grove in his book "Only the Paranoid Survive,"
080950 - reviewed on 980307. ref SDS 2 3416

080955 - Remembering Medit Code Difficult, Cannot Support Improvements to SDS
080956 -
080957 - Morris explained conditions have changed which prevent him from
080958 - continuing to collaborate on SDS development, asked in my letter this
080959 - morning.
080960 -
080961 - I asked if there is anything I have done that prevents effective
080962 - collaboration, perhaps being arrogant, which Morris has noted.  He
080963 - seemed to indicate that I have always been arrogant, so that is not a
080964 - major problem.
080965 -
080966 - Morris noted that in the early days of 1983 he was working on Medit
080967 - for his own use, so it was not terribly difficult for him to create
080968 - the features I needed.  He has not done any of that work for a very
080969 - long time, and does not have any records that explain the code.  This
080970 - makes it difficult to remember how Medit is programmed in order to
080971 - continue collaborating on new improvements going forward.
080972 -
080973 - On 020110 Morris asked about how SDS aids memory. ref SDS 11 I84G  On
080974 - 890809 indicated this was not necessary for his work. ref SDS 1 0880
080975 -
080976 - I asked Morris about creating a few SDS functions in C in order to
080977 - provide templates to guide me in doing the rest, per my letter this
080978 - morning?
080979 -
080980 - Morris indicated it would be too much work for him to create a few SDS
080981 - functions in C and provide documentation for guidance, and he further
080982 - speculated that I would be unable to extrapolate enough from the
080983 - examples to work productively on the rest of a C version of SDS.

080988 - Organic Subject Structure Can be Developed from SDS Experience
080989 - Ontology Can be Developed from Experience Using SDS Organic Structures
080990 -
080991 - We reviewed opportunity to develop program code for managing organic
080992 - subject structures in SDS.
080993 -
080994 - Morris noted that 5,000 people have tried to create an SDS-type
080995 - capability and failed, so he feels his chances of being successful are
080996 - not very good.
080997 -
080998 - This reflects the record on 000425 showing that the design for KM is a
080999 - secret of SDS, ref SDS 8 0480, which is supported by our discussion
081000 - on 020110 noting there is no work product showing that this capability
081001 - is available anywhere except in SDS. ref SDS 11 M53G  On 001130 IBM
081002 - announced the effort failed to convert LN into a KM capability that
081003 - can manage subjects like SDS. ref SDS 9 F26K
081004 -
081005 - We reviewed the advantage of having the SDS program for a template to
081006 - understand what to program for a baseline system of organic subject
081007 - structure.
