That is all very interesting, but how did you get images in the subject line? Cody Smith On Thu, May 26, 2016 at 10:28 AM, Tom Johnson <[hidden email]> wrote:

Hello all. This is probably a great opportunity for me to reintroduce myself to FRIAM group. I am soon-to-be former IBMer and a former employee of BiosGroup. I’ve been in Santa Fe since I moved here in 2000 to join BiosGroup. Since then, I worked at the Naval Postgraduate School and done a ton of consulting in Decision Management and Business Process Management. I used to do optimization consulting when I lived in Japan in the 90s. My professional interests have most recently been at the intersection of decision modeling and analytics. IBM is a century old technology company that has survived that long by reinventing itself several times. I took part in the 100th anniversary party here in NM in 2011 and there were some fabulous stories by the old-timers who came to NM to work for the government labs. IBM is trying to reinvent itself again by trippling down on design and they are reaching back to golden years of IBM design for some inspiration. The Selectric Typewritter is a heroic story within IBM’s design labs in Austin, TX. My product never had much uptake in the legacy computing space but when we were acquired we did all the work required to support mainframe workloads. It still represents a huge market segment even as the rest of the company is trying to launch into the cloud. My suspicion is that many of these legacy systems that Tom is researching will migrate to the cloud as the few remaining gurus who know how to maintain them age out of the workforce. One area I would like to discuss with this group is best practices for validating agent based models and visualizing event interactions. I’ve got to admit that I am somewhat skeptical of simulations when it comes to production systems and I know that you FRIAM folks are just the people to help me understand how to do it. Looking forward to meeting all of you. David Williams On 26 May 2016, at 10:28, Tom Johnson wrote:
