摘要： A computer implemented method for improving project risk management based on (a) a quantitative analysis of risks affecting activities, i.e., the root factors leading to cost and time overruns on an activity by activity basis, and (b) an optimization of the resources allocation to each activity in the project plan, is employed to maximize the probability of completing projects on time and within-budget. The method can be employed prior to proceeding with one or more projects, but is also advantageous in that it is adaptive in the sense that more information can be learned during the course of a project about the risk factors present in the project, and this information is used to enable dynamically re-allocating resources to ensure a better outcome given an updated risk profile. Preferably, a Bayesian Belief Network (BBN) is used to capture how risk factors identified by project managers influence individual activity durations.

摘要： An embodiment of the invention provides a method for service management, wherein resources that have performed tasks in at least two of a first category, a second category, and at least one additional category are identified. A plurality of correlation sums are determined where the correlation sum includes at least two categories, wherein the correlation sums are added together to produce a correlation value. A correlation product for each correlation sum is calculated based on the respective correlation sum and the number of resources that have performed tasks with respect to the correlation sum. A quotient is calculated for each correlation sum based on the respective correlation product and the correlation value. The categories are grouped into clusters with a clustering module based on the quotients; and, resources are associated with the clusters based on task performance history of the resources.

摘要： A method, system, and storage medium for assessing and implementing an organizational transformation. The method includes identifying at least one process area for each management area targeted for assessment and evaluating at least one solution for the at least one process area. A pairing of a solution to a process area results in a functional area. The method further includes performing orthogonal assessments for each functional area. The orthogonal assessments include determining a need for organizational transformation by ranking each of the functional areas according to a perceived need for organizational transformation, evaluating each of the at least one process area against each of the at least one corresponding solution and calculating any performance gaps identified based upon the evaluating, and evaluating an implementation capability for each of the at least one solution. The method also includes presenting results of each of the orthogonal assessments.

摘要： A method of creating a systems requirement document by using a numerical modeling tool, such as a spreadsheet, to prototype an operational process in terms of a numerical picture of the goals, metrics, performance targets and constraints used by managers of the operational process. A process design blueprint is defined for the operational process, including data sources and data sinks. A representative model of the process design blueprint is created. If the model is not detailed enough for implementation by IT professionals, model objects and data flows are added to the blueprint and the representative model is modified to be consistent with the blueprint. Surrogate calculations may be made for computational task objects or, alternatively, separate process design blueprints may be generated for such computational task objects. This cycle is repeated until the model is detailed enough for implementation.
