What is your experience of work and what did you learn from this experience?

Diversity begets creativity - in this seminar we tap the amazing power of swarm creativity on the Web by studying and working together as Collaborative Innovation Networks (COINs). As interdisciplinary teams of MIT management, SCAD design, University of Cologne informatics, and Aalto University software engineering students we will explore how to discover latest trends on the Web, and how to make them succeed in online social networks. We study a wide range of methods for predictive analytics (coolhunting) and online social marketing (coolfarming), mostly based on social network analysis and the emerging science of collaboration. Students will also learn to use our own unique MIT-developed Condor tool for Web mining, social network analysis, and trend prediction.
The recent discovery of acrylamide in both fried and baked foods like French fries and potato chips has caused alarm. Acrylamide is both a known carcinogen in animals when administered in high doses and a neurotoxin when humans are exposed to large amounts in the workplace. However, the link between acrylamide in food and human health is much less clear. In working through the case, students compare the accuracy of news headlines, articles, and web pages with the information presented in scientific journals. This case was designed for non-science major courses and can also be used in seminars.

At his lab at the University of Pennsylvania, Vijay Kumar and his team have created autonomous aerial robots inspired by honeybees. Their latest breakthrough: Precision Farming, in which swarms of robots map, reconstruct and analyze every plant and piece of fruit in an orchard, providing vital information to farmers that can help improve yields and make water management smarter.
What happens when the way we buy, sell and pay
for things changes, perhaps even removing the need for banks or currency exchange bureaus? That's the radical promise of a world powered by cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. We're not there yet, but in this sparky talk, digital currency researcher Neha Narula describes the collective fiction of money — and paints a picture of a very different looking future.

إن إدارة الطلب تعني إدارة المستهلكين، فالطلب على إنتاج الشركة ينطلق من مجموعتين: الزبائن الجدد والزبائن الدائمين، وكانت نظرية وممارسة التسويق التقليدي مركزة على جذب الزبائن الجدد وبيعهم السلع أو الخدمات. وأما اليوم فقد تغير الظروف، فإضافة إلى اتباع استراتيجيات تهدف إلى جذب زائن جدد وعقد الصفقات معهم تقوم الشركات بكل ما هو ممكن للحفاظ على زبائنها القدامى ودعم العلاقات الدائمة معهم.
