The Path to Information 4.0

Date:

Thursday, May 9, 2019

Time:
11:00 AM – 12:00 PM EDT

Episode 6

What if you could get highly personalized and contextualized information tailored to your situation, location, and even mood?

As the informational response to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, Information 4.0 intends to do just that. It aims to offer new information paradigms that also call on technologies like artificial intelligence. We don’t yet have tools for all of this, but we can decide right now what we want them to do.

Join Ray Gallon, president of the Information 4.0 Consortium and The Transformation Society, to explore using molecular content to build customized information that will still need to make sense, hang together, be useful to users, and stay inside professional and ethical guidelines.

The webinar will leave plenty of room for Q & A so you can add your voice to the discussion!

Episode 4

By now it’s well known you can obtain useful DITA production metrics.
But measuring reuse in particular is tricky, since there are many ways to measure it.

Do you measure reused topics between incremental versions of the same document or not? If a bookmap shares the same map as another, do you count the map along with all of its topics? And what about images—would you consider using your company logo and an illustration of a part for a product to be equivalent instances of reuse?

This co-presentation by IXIASOFT Senior DITA Content Strategist Keith Schengili-Roberts and Ericsson’s Information Architect Sari Eklund explores the creation, rationale and use of two separate but complementary DITA metrics that focus on content reuse.
