************************************************************** Net Happenings - From Educational CyberPlayGround ************************************************************** Science agency seeks place at 'cutting edge' of data mining The National Science Foundation has announced that it will supplement eight projects by $4 million over the next two years to "go beyond" current research in data-mining, under the Management of Knowledge Intensive Dynamic Systems (MKIDS) program. MKIDS goes beyond traditional data-mining technologies in their role as decision-making tools, pooling data from various business departments, and providing tools to monitor the effects of a change and fine-tune the decision process. One project in development at Carnegie Mellon University aims to find organizational "failure points" from e-mail, phone call, and personnel data; a Stanford project will "help managers design organizations the way engineers design bridges." The National Science Foundation leads two interagency efforts: one for information technology and another for nanotech. http://www.govexec.com/dailyfed/0403/041803td1.htm ************************************************************************** Educational CyberPlayGround links to Technology <http://www.edu-cyberpg.com/Technology/Home_TECHNOLOGY.html> Find Information on Security for Teachers, Administrators, Ed.
