Vendors are aware of the major adoption roadblocks, and are ratcheting up efforts to increase customer knowledge, minimize customization requirements and make any necessary devices more affordable.
It's not terribly novice-friendly, since there's very little in terms of visual aides, and any moderately advanced customization requires knowledge of CSS and access to a server that will host your image and style files (MuseStorm offloads most of the content within its widgets).
But most other solutions use complex document customization that requires knowledge of conditionals, tags and syntax.
Rules can be modified, added, or removed, allowing for per-resident customization based on knowledge about their cognitive and physical ability.
Among the primary drawbacks of current systems are the missing integration of DSS in current health information system architectures including interfaces, the missing agreement among developers with regard to the formalization and customization of medical knowledge and a lack of intelligent algorithms to interpret data from multiple sources including clinical application systems.
Not only did Toffler, writing a decade before the advent of the World Wide Web, recognize information as the basic resource of the modern economy; he also discussed concepts like knowledge workers, customization, peer production, and several other "big-think" concepts that are still providing stories for magazines like Wired, Fast Company, Business 2.0, and, indeed, The New Yorker.
The customization reduces the algorithmic knowledge requirements on users and allows users to concentrate on model development and data analysis, rather than programming and compatibility issues.
The paper presents this approach from the perspective of application of the mass customization idea to corporate knowledge management as a major information kernel technology of intelligent enterprises.
This paper describes a customization architecture specifically designed for knowledge workers.
The study identifies a new collaborative relationship between the system designer and clinician to mold their own splint customization processes by exchanging their knowledge in medicine, design engineering, and 3D printing.
Organizations must understand from the beginning that even when they purchase a commercial system, customization will be necessary and knowledge engineers/analysts will be critical.
