Experimentation at the COSPA Partners

Experimentation at the COSPA Subcontractors

 

 

 

Experimentation

 

The COSPA experimentation focuses on analyzing quantitatively how people use OS tools, especially whether the introduction has changed the effectiveness of people at work, has motivated employees or has caused disruption in the administrative process activities.

 

The first phase of the experimentation focuses on OpenOffice.org.

The data is collected using qualitative data (questionnaires) and quantitative data collected with PROM. PROM (PRO Metrics) is a tool developed by Prof. Succi over the last few years to evaluate the effort spent on documents.


The following PAs involved in the experimentation include full partners of COSPA and subcontractors of COSPA (PAs involved for a specific task with a specific contractual obligation).
