Presentation UCB
Abstract
UCB has been working for years to evolve from hybrid (paper + electronic systems to store the information) to paperless / digital laboratory processes. The computerized systems landscape developed progressively to become a complex entanglement of applications, tools and processes. Looking at it we can say “waouw” look at all these nice things we’ve put in place (THE WONDERS)
However, when launching a large Knowledge Management program aiming at extracting analytical data from the landscape, and trying to mix them in order to build knowledge, then your reaction becomes “OOOOPS”… How will we be able to combine and correlate data which are not necessarily structured and aligned (coding, naming convention) for that purpose? (THE DARK SIDE)
