classification. IT Tools group support PKM, suggested by Eric Tsui, has spread among experts on the management of personal knowledge [ 23]. The advantage of this classification is that it gives the idea of ​​the variety of technologies that facilitate the work of an individual with information. However, the use systemological analysis revealed several violations of the rules of the division of the concept in the construction of classification:.

a).
division made ​​on several grounds: Class ' funds managed voice interface ...
b).
disrupted the continuity of the division: grades ... The right to designate the class of ...
a ).
in the above classification does not reflect the full scope of the concept means to support management of personal knowledge. In addition, E. Tsui PKM tools is not classified on the basis of their functional purpose, it would be natural, but based on the kinds of problems solved by these tools, which ultimately leads to the fact that not only the specific application, but a group of applications can be attributed both .

Reflections on the market, EDS


The short answer to the second question - to plan their personal work. Understand - how deeply and widely not engage in this topic. Understand the market potential in terms of its development, growth. Can I count on him, as a partner in the affairs....

In previous entries I talked often about the immaturity of the market SED. It is necessary to clarify.

The mature - immature - a relative term. Looking for what.
In general, of course, this segment is generally at the level of the IT market as a whole, something ' more', but in something ' less' mature. But it is ' more or less ' determined by the specifics of the market, and will ( bad example) working here IT companies.

Yet the market SED - this is one of the most interesting and promising for our IT market. I am writing about this for many years, almost every great review. He formiruschiysya, growing. It's not ' dead sea ', as in our ERP. Everything is alive.

BUT.
The problem is seen in the fact that this market ( as seen from the side) all the time trying to reach a new level of quality for themselves, and he did it somehow does not work. And for a long time.

In this regard, many months of discussion, ' What is EDS ' and why do we need these questions and answers are very revealing.

Why do I need ' what EDS '? .

The answer - in the transition to a new level, to a wider audience, to new classes of problems. In the new business frontier.

If you are talking backstage in a narrow coterie (the community of 5-10 people), the definitions do not have any.
The definitions are not necessary if you can ring up all of their clients for a day by phone or collect in a room for 20-30 people.
The definitions are not needed if you work at a level of personal contacts (eg, in the reception area ).
They are not necessary if you have a product and you do not need to explain how it differs from others in your portfolio.
If there is no competition (or you can to ' get around ' at all the same ' personal ' kontktov ).
If you are running a project manager, or you think the number of projects within 10.

In this case, no definitions, classifications, and analysts do not need to.

By the way, the analyst. She then took up arms against the many. External excuse - ... And actually ( IMHO of course ) - just do not need no analyst. Do not want openness and transparency of the market. A ' bad ' - this is just an excuse....

But the problem of ' definitions ' as soon as there is, if you go to the level of subsistence farming on the industrial level. Outside their county.
When you need to communicate not only with the long familiar to the children in the smoking room, but with a broader and - most importantly - a strange, multi-level classrooms.

I already wrote in a recent commentary:.

It's one thing when you look at the issues are not within the SED, and quite another - from the outside.

The problem of our SED- suppliers is seen as a time that they see their segment in isolation from the IT market as a whole, as some thing self-contained.

In this situation, we can say ' document ' and everyone knows what it is (although it is unclear even within - look at the internal debate on this subject).

But it turns out that the world under all those words does not understand what we are here for themselves within.
Hence the surprise at the sudden sincere authoritative experts: it turns out they are (when outside) meant by ...

It turns out that when you talk to clerks - all you have to understand. And how do you go to a wider audience - cease to understand.

That's what gets the funny thing: clerks do not understand what the ECM, and those who need ECM does not understand what the SED.

What were those initiated by my posts on the topic? .

The purely practical matters.

Here in April, held an important press conference on the important topic of ' Meadow '. And journalists or do not come or do not write about it. Or write, but somehow not as I would like to.

At the end of May is a big industry conference, and publications on it are generally very small, and about the problems - especially.

The question arises - why? .
For many reasons, but also because that journalists simply do not understand what issues you're talking. And not because the journalists - stupid or lazy.

One more point.
I sincerely do not understand why the question ' definitions, and classification of analysts ' indifferent as leading suppliers, including foreign.

After a time they should be interested in is to tell the market, their products are better than the ' neliderskih '.

And then we get in SDA - ' vehicle '. It is not necessary for the classification of the controllers ( although also need - many of the articles relate to differences in SDA auto). And for customers, users need it.

Because the buyer does not buy the ' vehicle '. He buys something more concrete - a bicycle or bus.
And we - all of the SED.
What is different from Documentum ' Euphrates '? .

And what's the problem Meadow? .

So all the discussion on the topic can be closed.

Marketing shopping center



So, suddenly I become a director of mall marketing, your job, I would start with the analysis and comparison of data on cross-country center, and the concept of mall tenants. At the last stop is worth more, as far as I know, many of the mall began with the concept of well designed, but then slipped just to the sale area. It's certainly easier, but much less profitable for the center. The reasons for this are completely different - from poorly developed concept, properly designed traffic flows, the emergence of competitive shopping center, leaving the anchor tenants, inflated rents to savings in personnel and t. Dr..

Data on cross-country center would allow us to understand what goes into the center of the contingent, its distribution by time of day and day of week. In addition, it would be possible to conduct a study of the declared objectives and actual arrival of the center.

The composition of the tenants would allow us to understand whether there is an advantage in the direction of a single type of goods, which tenants bring us more revenue from the tenants who are in demand, and who simply takes the square. At the same time we need to consider more recent - maybe one of them and are sought after, but buyers are attracted to the center.

Comparison of the obtained data with the concept would understand how the activities of the center corresponds to the described. And as calculated on the basis of the concept of payback period, then we would know if the medicine is working and whether you want the center to make changes in its operations or on the contrary lead to the concept of line with reality.

We should also conduct a study of game zones, cinema, food court, an analysis of visitor satisfaction, tenants, etc. Dr..

And finally a few ideek to attract buyers:.



  • Create bicycle parking to attract young people, especially since summer is soon.


  • Establishment of information services based on SMS and Bluetooth for buyers. SMS services could promote themselves tenants, getting individual rooms service and creating lists of subscribers from among its customers.


  • Creating a playground and room for up to 2 years. Usually playgrounds are not designed for children of this age, respectively, the center becomes a category of parents with children of this age.


  • Development of the mall site. What I have seen sites malls are quiet horror and the tomb of investments.


  • The development center participation in the cultural life of the district and the city as a whole.
