Hello,
I’m an academic at the University of Cambridge’s Computer Lab. I’m currently doing some research on how people who work with algorithmic systems keep records about them.
If you’re a professional working with algorithmic systems, and happen to have a spare ~20 minutes, would you mind answering some questions? The link to the questionnaire is here: https://cambridge.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3n6RuowNogZKG34
Thanks very much!
The next paragraph and project title add a little.
Project Title: Record-Keeping in Algorithmic Systems
As such, many organisations will have record-keeping processes: procedures for recording information about how their systems are designed, developed, deployed, and used. This might include recording technical records (e.g. system usage or access logs, technical reports, performance metrics), or equally, it might involve records about the organisation and the people using or impacted by the system (e.g. risk assessments, system design documents, reports).
But yeah, this is a lot of analysis to figure out the intent.
