Sociotechnology (short for "social technology") is the study of processes on the intersection of society and technology. [1] Vojinović and Abbott define it as "the study of processes in which the social and the technical are indivisibly combined". [2]
This technology, or project-focused scaling takes products and services as the point of departure and wants to see those to go scale. [ clarification needed ] In the public sector , and for example in development aid , the desired impact is the point of departure and whatever leads to more impact is scaled (usually in the form of a range of ...
Scalability is the property of a system to handle a growing amount of work. One definition for software systems specifies that this may be done by adding resources to the system. [1] In an economic context, a scalable business model implies that a company can increase sales given increased resources. For example, a package delivery system is ...
Designing an ML system involves balancing trade-offs between accuracy, latency, cost, and maintainability, while ensuring system scalability and reliability. The discipline overlaps with MLOps, a set of practices that unifies machine learning development and operations to ensure smooth deployment and lifecycle management of ML systems.
Database scalability is the ability of a database to handle changing demands by adding/removing resources. Databases use a host of techniques to cope. [ 1 ] According to Marc Brooker: "a system is scalable in the range where marginal cost of additional workload is nearly constant."
Social informatics is a young intellectual movement and its future is still being defined. However, because SST theorists such as Williams and Edge suggest that the amorphous boundaries between humans and technology that emerge in social shaping technology research indicate that technology is not a distinct social endeavor worthy of individual study, [6] indicating that there is a need for ...
Guttman's original definition of the reproducibility coefficient, C R is simply 1 minus the ratio of the number of errors to the number of entries in the data set. And, to ensure that there is a range of responses (not the case if all respondents only endorsed one item) the coefficient of scalability is used. [4]
Modularity is the degree to which a system's components may be separated and recombined, often with the benefit of flexibility and variety in use. [1] The concept of modularity is used primarily to reduce complexity by breaking a system into varying degrees of interdependence and independence across and "hide the complexity of each part behind an abstraction and interface".
