SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CALIBRATING AND EXTRAPOLATING COMPLEXITY METRICS OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT
First Claim
1. A method for calibrating the relationship between management-inherent complexity metrics deriving from the management structure and human perceived complexity of information technology management comprising:
- (a) obtaining a set of management-inherent complexity metrics;
(b) obtaining a set of human-perceived complexity metrics;
(c) constructing a control model identifying a set of dominant indicators selected from said set of management-inherent complexity metrics;
(d) establishing a value model mapping from said set of dominant indicators to said set of human-perceived complexity metrics.
