090901 - Followed up work at ref SDS 2 line 140 and ref SDS 1 line 97.
090902 -
090903 - Received support of Communication Metrics ideas from notice of seminar
090904 - at Cal Tech on "Intelligence."  Sent notice to Hank Hatch because of
090905 - his association of Communicaition Metrics with the military
090906 - "Intelligence" role.
090907 -
090908 - Also sent copy to Morris per analysis below.

091301 - Received notice of Cal Tech seminar that supports the need for
091302 - converting information into something more useful.  Cal Tech seminar
091303 - notice calls it "intelligence," supports Hank Hatch's observation at
091304 - ref SDS 2 line 140.
091305 -
091306 - Cal Tech's formulation of the issue is the need for "...converting
091307 - information into action," ref DRT 1 line 20, which is a derivitive of
091308 - the common aphorism "converting plans into action."  Cal Tech
091309 - describes its course as a directed "intelligence" effort; whereas,
091310 - Communication Metrics says information is converted into "knowledge"
091311 - comprising the connections that show the accuracy and consistency of
091312 - information, and the analysis of correlations and implications that
091313 - yield intellectual capital, or "intelligence."
091314 -
091315 - The difficulty with the Cal Tech course is that it is directed solely
091316 - at the matter of evaluating "technology."   Communication Metrics is
091317 - an intelligence gathering process about everything that impacts an
091318 - organization and its success.  Second, the Cal Tech course calls for a
091319 - dedicated program of folks who generate a "report."  Communication
091320 - Metrics says SDS technology empowers individuals and organizations to
091321 - gather "intelligence" as a constant stream of case studies which
091322 - comprise a process of "continual learning" called out by ISO and other
091323 - emerging standards.
091324 -
091325 - The Cal Tech course, however, shows support for the "intelligence"
091326 - that is the result of using Communication Metrics.  It is an indicator
091327 - of a felt need in the market.
091328 -
091329 - Also received ref DRT 2 line 20 that offers a subscription to a
091330 - magazine or other research source for executive training.  The thing
091331 - that struck me about it is that it describes the role of the executive
091332 - as covering psychologist, engineer, accountant, financial analysts,
091333 - strategic planner.
091334 -
091335 - It also says an executive must digest vast amounts of information.
091336 -
091337 - How does an executive perform all of these roles and what does
091338 - "digest" mean?  These seem related to Communication Metrics.

1106 -
110601 - Contact Hank Hatch
110602 -
110603 - Submitted this notice via ref DIT 1 line 30, to Hank Hatch, along with
110604 - a comment about the article in the Engineer Update, reported the other
110605 - day on Jimmy Bates, following up the work at ref SDS 4 line 120, and
110606 - at ref SDS 5 line 71.  I have not been able to send the notice of
110607 - Bates' interview, because we have not fully confirmed yet that Hank is
110608 - on the Asilomar program, so I sent notice of the article on Bates with
110609 - the letter from Cal Tech because it is a related matter that affords
110610 - an opportunity to contact Hank.  I asked Hank to let me know if he
110611 - wants the article on Bates, ref DIT 1 line 36, for example, to send
110612 - him a thank you.

1204 - Summary/Objective
1205 -
120501 - Follow up work at ref SDS 6 line 175.
120502 -
120503 - Decided to send the notice of the Cal Tech seminar to Morris, via ref
120504 - DIT 2 line 34, even though he likely gets this stuff from having
120505 - attended a seminar last year.
120506 -
120507 - This piece builds awareness of Communication Metrics ideas based on a
120508 - source held in general high regard, and so may support Morris' work on
120509 - a paper for Asilomar, per his email at ref SDS 6 line 105, and our
120510 - telecon at ref SDS 3 line 121.
120511 -
120512 - Additionally, the course may have some follow up value to the effort
120513 - at Chips on defining its product development process, per course
120514 - agenda at ref DRT 1 line 67.  The author, Dr. Paap, is cited for
120515 - expertise in managing product development ref DRT 1 line 171.
