Abstract: Improved systems, methods, and architectures to enhance decision making in Smart Cities and Smart Regions. A system includes an index structure including a first hierarchical data structure including a first hierarchical score based on a plurality of first-level elements, each of the plurality of first-level elements having a respective weighting, and a second hierarchical data structure including a plurality of second hierarchical scores based on a plurality of second-level elements, each of the plurality of second-level elements having a respective weighting, such that the first hierarchical score is based on the plurality of second hierarchical scores through an index factor; and a computer-implemented regional monitor engine to manage local access to a plurality of external data sources to coordinate writes to the index structure.

Abstract: A system and method for developing and implementing a workforce virtualization program comprises six phases. A virtualization assessment and profiling process uses analytic methods to determine the feasibility of virtualizing some or all of an organization's workers. A mitigation assessment is conducted to identify cost-effective means of reducing barriers to virtualization. Scenario assessment and modeling phase allows an organization to develop an optimum virtualization scenario. A policy review and development phase allows an organization to develop virtualization policies, including business continuity plans. A virtualization implementation planning phase allows and organization to develop detailed plans for deployment of the virtualization scenario. A monitoring and refinement process allows an organization to track implementation of the deployment plans and modify as necessary.
