multiple issues unreferenced August 2011 orphan February 2009 Wireless informatics describes the evolution of traditional customer support practices within the mobile industry from problem management to problem prevention. Wireless informatics methodologies are being adopted by mobile operators, device manufacturers and service providers as a means of overcoming the negative impact of service and technology complexity on both operating costs and customer brand loyalty. Because added complexity across mobile technologies coupled with a rise in market competition makes managing the mobile user experience through traditional support channels an increasingly complex and potentially costly business, Wireless informatics supports the notion of using collating, validating and disseminating knowledge, best practices and experiences throughout the mobile value chain as a means of mitigating end user support requirements. For example, trends analysis made within an existing customer care center can be applied upstream , perhaps within the organisation s product management or retail division to eliminate a troublesome component, service etc before the problem erupts and drives a costly spike in support calls. technology stub Category Management Category Mobile technology ... more details

Unreferenced date August 2007 Expert subject culture date August 2008 Humanistic Informatics also known as Humanities informatics is one of several names chosen for the study of the relationship between human culture and technology . The term is fairly common in Europe , but is little known in the English speaking world , though Digital Humanities also known as Humanities computing is in many cases roughly equivalent. Humanistic informatics departments were generally started in the 1990s when universities rarely taught humanities based approaches to the rapidly developing computerized society. For this reason, the field was quite broadly defined, and included courses in humanities computing, basic introductions to how computers work, historical developments of technology, technology and learning, digital art and literature and digital culture. Today several departments have declared more specialized areas of research, such as digital arts and culture at the University of Bergen , and socio cultural communication with and without technology at the University of Aalborg . Digital Humanities is a primary topic, and there are several universities in the US and the UK that have Digital Arts and Humanities research and development centers. One aspect of Digital Humanities that will grow will be the intersection of new digital media and the humanities, particularly in the gaming industry which has developed both casual and serious gaming and game design strategies to foster learning in the humanities and all other academic disciplines. A key principle in all digital interactive media or games is the storyline the narrative or quest or goal of the game is primary to both literary works and games. Characters and players go on the quest, and playing the game becomes the narrative.

Parliamentary informatics is the application of information technology to the documentation of legislative activity. The principal areas of concern are the provision, in a form conveniently readable to humans or machines, of information and statistics about individual legislators particular legislative proposals votes thereon text of legislation Parliamentary informatics is carried on both by officials of legislatures and by private for profit and non profit actors, with motivations ranging from the administration of parliaments to lobbying and facilitating democratic discourse. The division of activities between official and unofficial activity differs widely between polities, even within a single country. There exists substantial overlap with disciplines such as psephology and, as far as the text of successfully enacted legislation is concerned, legal informatics in general. The use of parliamentary informatics is also a rapidly growing trend in parliamentary monitoring. In a September 2011 joint report from the National Democratic Institute and World Bank Institute , a survey of parliamentary monitoring organizations PMOs found that parliamentary informatics are used by approximately 40 percent of PMOs worldwide. The report states, These tools can automatically aggregate and organize information from parliamentary websites and other information sources, generate visualizations such as political finance maps , and create new platforms for citizens to interact with MPs or participate in parliamentary monitoring and policy analysis. ref http www.ndi.org files governance parliamentary monitoring organizations survey september 2011.pdf Strengthening Parliamentary Accountability ...
