Section 10 #18

This sections requires significant work. The research context hasn't been changed at all from my draft text, and it is definitely not good enough. 10.2 is at times hard to follow, I read it twice and still not sure what is it about.

Yes, this is the weakest content thus far. I have it on my weekend hit list to go over it and do a deep tightening of the content, as per the comments in red. I would like to understand how to use diagrams because they would be helpful to include as use cases for this section. Anybody know how to do that in tex? I will pull an issue for that.

Diagrams are best generated in some external software, depending on what diagrams you mean exactly, you may check out https://www.draw.io/ Just export them to something vector (.pdf, .svg) and we can include them as figures. Drawing directly in latex is possibly, but usually painful.

Hi Dazza,

To make a diagram in Latex you need to save it in a format that latex can support (eg. PDF).

Say your filename is DAZZAFIGURE1.pdf

To incorporate into latex, just cut and paste the following lines:

\begin{figure}[!t] \centering \includegraphics[width=7in]{DAZZAFIGURE1} \caption{This is the Caption to Dazza's Figure} \label{labeldazzafigure1} \end{figure}

Here is an explanation:

\begin{figure}[!t] \centering \includegraphics[width=7in]{THIS-IS-THE-FILENAME-WITHOUT-DOT-PDF} \caption{THIS IS THE CAPTION TEXT TAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO APPEAR} \label{THIS IS A UNIQUE ONE WORD REFERENCE} \end{figure}

Later if you want to reference your diagram somewhere in the text, you use the "label" as a easy way to reference. For example:

…..as Figure \ref{labeldazzafigure1} shows, there are a number of ……...

Update - have not yet committed the new language, but seeking to dramatically reduce the word count of this section and using a terse set of anchor point generic use cases highlighting materials characteristics of the data flow with and without the New Deal on Data from b2b, b2b2c, b2c and c2c viewpoints. Comments welcome (and please note... this is not too different from what I'm contributing for the MIT Big Data Initiative privacy working group use cases)

No diagrams in time for the deadline, but this section (now #8) on contexts and scenarios is in good shape at last!
