DESCRIPTION:Click for Latest Location Information: http://edw2009.wilshireconferences.com/sessionPop.cfm?confid=31&proposalid=1277\nToday?s organizations must address information agility in the face of continuous and sometimes rapid change, and manage the complexities of other challenges through federated communities of interest.  They must be able to leverage and share data on demand to known and unknown information consumers without compromising sensitivity, competitive positioning, and security.  Yet many organizations carry an inventory of legacy systems that were not initially designed for interoperability or for sharing information that is trusted, timely, and accessible.  Dr. Suzanne Acar, Co-chair, Federal Data Architecture Subcommittee, and Ms Adel Harris, Senior Information Engineer, Citizant, Inc., will describe an iterative approach to transform the way an organization shares its data using examples from industry and government.    The session is designed to be interactive with points of emphasis on:\n<ul><li>A data sharing strategy in alignment with business goals</li>\n<li>Approaches for planning and executing data governance\n </li>\n<li>Using metadata to enable information discovery, understanding, accessibility and reuse</li>\n<li>Data sharing services</li>\n<li>Measuring for results</li></ul>
