SMART (ENOUGH) SYSTEMS

By: Neil Raden and James Taylor


About This Book: The computer-based systems most organizations rely on to support their businesses are not very smart. The answer is not to implement newer, ‘intelligent’ systems. Much of today’s existing technology has the potential to be ‘smart enough’ to make a big difference to an organization’s business. Authors James Taylor and Neil Raden tell you how in Smart (Enough) Systems.

Neil Raden is the president and founder of Hired Brains (www.hiredbrains.com), a firm offering research and analysis services to technology providers as well as consulting and implementation services in business intelligence/analytics, information integration, and semantic technology. James Taylor is a vice president at Fair Isaac Corporation, where he has been developing the themes of enterprise decision management for the past several years
