RE: Use Cases to support work of Social WG

Hi all:

After reading the post in the wiki, where it sates, - "This report will document the use cases to drive social standards for both businesses and consumers. These use-cases can include personalization based on context, including location, activities, and connected devices. "

Seems to me this is tech oriented. One scenario that is a real challenge based on scattered and legacy systems and highly tacit expertise, is how to deploy social collaboration in carring maintenance on utilities pr oil & gas infrastructures. For that purpose,  interoperability is key to allow people to collaborate together when faults occur and there is breakdowns or when executing preventive maintenance. Some people are on site, others remotely, others far away. This is an environment where content, coordination, putting experts working together is key.

Is this the kind of scenarios that are expected to be described on order how to put in people hands information from scada systems, sap mm (sorry for the endorsement), company social network altogether and let people interact instead,of crying to fix a fault?

Best
Alberto

Without getting into the details of the use cases and individual positions on their applicability (that will come later), we need to start with a common understanding of what we are gathering the use cases for. In reading through your response, I didn't see one provided.   If you don't feel comfortable doing this, then I am happy to go to Harry and ask for his input.

Best Regards,
