IDEAS Factory Productivity Network - Closing the Gap, Crossing the Levels

Lead Research Organisation: University of Nottingham
Department Name: School of Computer Science

Abstract

The IDEAS factory network is a very important (if not the most important) outcome of the productivity sandpit. It should keep the sandpit momentum alive, serve as a quality check and repository of knowledge and data, facilitate communication between members, projects and others interested in productivity and make sure an inter-disciplinary perspective is upheld at all times.
