How hard can it be to buy an ALGORITHM?

How hard can it be to buy an ALGORITHM? It's my old business DATA starting to stink! I must do something before it rots! I must REFINE and Cloud Park Adventures proudly presents: Mr. BizMan buys an O BUSINESS UTILIZE the data! What's that ALGORITHM SMELL? ** (as a Service) BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE SOFTWARE Hi there! Can you Why buy when you can use refine data? free open source tools.. BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE SOFTWARE Sure! Our open source community has made great free data analysis tools! I wanna refine data! Buy our BI tool! Can they handle my data? Does it solve my problem? Well, some of it. But you can extend the tool with your own data wrappers and algorithms! Probably not. But you can pretend it does! Most of our customers do so! ONE SIZE FITS ALL! I'm not a software developer. Should I try one of those Then why should I buy it? Too bad. I guess you're not a scientist either.? Business may contain traces of ALGORITHMS Intelligence Itt's fun to play with and creates pretty reports! tools? SALES Nope. O ol Then you should probably find one. You know, these tools are developed by scientists for scientists and normal people usually find them complicated.. No thanks. Hey, don't go! Buy now and get 3 months support for free... Work for me! What a great idea! P'Il hire the best scientist to work on my data! In my understanding, you are proposing a joint research project between your company and the University. Is that correct? Why?I work here as a researcher and enjoy it. RESEARC CHAMBE RESEARC CHAMBE Then refine my data! Errh... I RESEARCH CHAMBER PHO guess so? Why don't you use algorithms for that? Then we must apply for public funding and find international partners PHD REQUIRED De NOT dsturb Genkus at work Algorithms? I don't have any - could you create one for me? Gens Do NOT disturb! Genius at work Money and more scientists? Sounds good! When do I get the results? My algorithms are described in academic publications. KNO In fact, we get the money and expect you to fund the project also. A small project like this can be completed in 2-3 years. KNOCK! They make my head ache. I just want an application! What?! That doesn't work. I need the solution NOW! Maybe you should talk to my professor. Hrmh, we are NOT a software house. Try using commercial services. Mr. BizMan, I'm now ready to make our offer for the algorithm development project Hey nerds! Some BizMan wants us to develop an algorithm. Can we do it? Aren't they a bit like math? Sounds complex... Couldn't we just make him a fancy web GUI to hide the lack of science? Gee, that was fast... Bu-huu...! I will never find the algorithm... Soon my data is too old and useless... All those great business opportunities - gone, forever...! I suggest we do this project using the Agile Development method What does that mean? P've once implemented code that calculated the We develop in two week sprints - payment in advance SLES average of numbers. Does that count? So, when will it be ready? Impossible to estimate STAR JARS ADFKD How good will the algorithm be? Absolutely no idea. S And how much will this project cost? Close enough! I'll sell the project. I will use that agile trick again... Totally irrelevant question. Listen, dude... After every sprint we show you a demo and you tell us what to do next. It's ready when you decide so. Do we have a deal...? í . Psst! Mr. BizMan! Let's see.. googling 'algorithms as a service'. Oh, there it is - right on the top, http://cloudnsci.fi I can write a simple web application for the end users... Hey, check this new post by Mr. BizMan! Quite challenging case don't you think...? I have a great visualization What?!? "from DATA to BENEFIT'- Sounds good! Now what's in that Algorithm Catalog..? Who's talking? algorithm! You can call me "Deep Thought" Yep. The input data needs some heavy preprocessing. I've tools for that! Sound like we have a That makes sense! Wow! Amazing data visualizations...! I want to view my data like that! ок, "Deep Thought" - what do you have to say? solution here! I can be But how could we the algorithm architect and start negotiations... then visualize the results...? Check the Algorithms-as-a- Service concept developed by Cloud'N'Sci Ltd. It might help finding your algorithm.. Hmm, input data format does not quite match to my data. Let's ask from the Forum... Some crucial Brilliant idea! Please Sign Up... OK, why not... background information After that it fairly easy to ... Thanks! Why are seems to be you doing this? Let's add a new topic .. missing... I know a good "Hi! My business generates this kind of data and I need tools for refining, analyzing and visualizing it. Can anybody help? - Mr. BizMan" .and then submit ... done! data source to Then some .. perhaps? I could try my algorithm. I dream that my algorithms were used in real world get that information! And I can merge the data sets! applications... I think we should | try - it's so easy with Cloud'N'Sci Mr. BizMan, I speak for a team of developers who might be able to solve your needs. Could you describe the required performance and estimate possible pricing? - Archie - Hi folks, check these detailed requirements and the pricing offer. Not bad? - Archie I agree, we have nothing to lose. If we fail, no harm done. But in case we succeed... Wow, this is starting to sound like a LATER... real business! DATA BUSINESS Sounds doable but 1000€/month is not CLOUD, N Scin ..and each Hmm, if the tool really helps me to understand and optimize my business, I could gain over 5000€/month... customer OK, let's do it! very much when divided among us... would pay us every month... ...and Cloud'N'Sci will take a share of it as well. ...and each application has several potential customers.. As a minimum, the tool Great! That sounds feasible and motivating. P'Il discuss with the team and get back to you soon. - Archie - should do ... and ... If you can reach these requirements, I could pay 1000€/month for using the solution via Cloud'N'Sci.fi - Mr. BizMan- That's right! I already know many other applications for my algorithm modules... That was fast and easy! Those smart algorithm scientists really did solve my data refining needs! I got a perfect customized solution without R&D or licensing costs and they could start up a scalable algorithm business with instant continuous Come on guys! Remember that we own our modules and can apply them in other commerical data refining solutions as well! revenue. Thanks Cloud'N'Sci for making this possible! Meanwhile at the University ...

Mr. BizMan has a problem - his business data is getting old and must be refined quickly before it rots! Will he find the perfect algorithm in time? How hard can it be? Watch this first episode of Clou...
