Aadhar - for HR ?

Aadhar  =  Aggregate   Anonymous  Data  Harvesting  about  Recruitment

Even as debate on Data Privacy is raging and B N Srikrishna Committee is debating the PROS and CONS of Privacy vs Publicity ( of data ) , there is a general consensus that aggregating anonymized data for the purpose of GREATER GOOD of the Society , should be permitted

I want to go one step further and say :

Such gathering and using of Anonymized data should be Encouraged / Solicited / Mandated , for policy and strategy formulation

Here is a glimpse of what I have in my mind

I worked in a large engineering company for over 30 years .

So did many of my colleagues , all of us starting as JUNIOR supervisors and retiring as GENERAL MANAGERS, after serving for 20 / 30 / 40 years

This was between 1950s and 1990s

How did we fare when it came to the “ Salary Increments “ that we received ,

·          to compensate us for neutralizing the rising “ Cost of Living “ ?

·          to improve our “ Standard of Living “ ?

Look at the following (  ANONYMIZED  ) data about Salary Growth ( Rs per month )  :

Name  /  Start  / End  /  Diff  /  Years of Service / Growth/month( ave ) / Joining Year

A   /   Rs  2500   /  Rs  19,250   /  Rs 16,750  /  24  /  Rs 698  /  1972

=======================================================

B   /    350     /    17,700     /     17,350    /    39     /   445    /    1956

C    /   3,000    /   13, 270    /   10,270    /   18   /       570     /    1977

D    /   1,600    /    16,900    /   15,300    /   23    /     665    /     1971

E    /    2,700    /   10,300    /   7,600    /   21    /     362    /       1971

F     /    135    /    7,700     /   7,565     /    43    /      176    /     1948

G    /    625    /   9,985    /    9,360   /     31     /      302     /     1959

H     /    2,500    /  6,000   /   3,500   /    17     /      206    /      1972

J     /   1,400    /  7,500   /   6,100    /    23     /       265    /      1965

Do you see the “ limitations “ of the above “ analysis “ ?

It pertained to just one COMPANY / one INDUSTRY / one CITY / one EDU LEVEL / one DESIGNATION LEVEL / nine EMPLOYEES

Can you guess what “ Insights “ such “ Data Analytics “ could yield if it was for :

·         A million  Companies , operating in

·         100  different  Industries , and located in

·         5,000  Cities , covering

·         100 million  Employees , having

·         500  different  Edu Qualifications , and having

·         1000  different  Titles / Designations

Also remember that the above-tabulated analysis was carried out by :

·         one retired employee ( possessing limited natural intelligence ) ,

·         after a lapse of  30 years  and ,

·         taking a  few hours  of data-digging / tabulating ?

·          

Can you guess if such analysis were to be carried out ,

·         INSTANTANEOUSLY

·         DYNAMICALLY

·         AUTOMATICALLY ( without human intervention ) , and by

·         ARTIFICIAL  INTELLIGENCE  ( AI ) ,

Then what kind of  POLICY INPUTS  that could provide  ?

To know ,

·         Aadhar ( Aggregate   Anonymous  Data  Harvesting  about  Recruitment )

·         How it can be implemented ,

Why don’t they park in their flats ?

A news headline in Hindustan Times ( 28 Aug ) reads :

“ Live or work in SoBo ? You can’t park your car on roads anymore  “

Parking on streets banned after decision ensured smooth traffic flow during Maratha Morcha

Traffic police has banned parking on both sides of these roads in South Mumbai , as they are on their priority list

There is a legend that a great French princess, on being informed that the country people had no bread, replied, " Then let them eat cake ! "

To 22 lakh car owners of Mumbai , BMC / Traffic Police / Maharashtra Government , seem to be saying :

“ If you don’t have a parking place on the road , why don’t you park your car inside your flats ? “

Next expect them to say :

“ As against 22 lakh cars , we have parking space on the roads , for only 3.3 lakh cars ( approx.. for 15 % of the cars

And , each car , on an average , gets used DAILY ( being driven on the road ) for just 3 hours out of available 24 hours ( …. 12  % of the time ! )

For the balance 21 hours , it is just PARKED on the streets , causing all of our PARKING SPACE SHORTAGES

Hence , we offer you Car Owners , the following options :

·         At any given time , only 3.3 lakh cars will be allowed to be parked on the roads , with the rest having to park inside their flats ( like ODD / EVEN number scheme )

·         Let everyone dispose off their PERSONAL cars and use  “ Ride Sharing “ arrangements . Working round the clock , these 3.3 lakh “ Ride Sharing Cars “ would suffice to take all of you to your work-place and back

   

Of course , you will need to stagger your WORKING HOURS round the clock in such a way that , at any given point of time , only 3.3 lakh persons are using those cars

·         Convince your employers to allow you to “ Work from Home “ , using Video Conferencing / Holographic projections etc , to mark your attendance

·         Use specially created , green coloured , “  Car Donor Public Transport ( BEST Buses / Local Trains / Metros  ) “ , which will be FREE  to those of you ( and to your entire family ) , who surrender their personal cars to the Government and undertake not to buy a personal transport in future

 Future of commuting within Mumbai , will see a “ Sea Change “ !

Smart Cars , Safe Cars , Social Cars ?

Today’s Times of India carries an article , titled :

“ Telematics can detect even yawns and trigger alert : Soon , all of us will be driving smart , safe cars  “

Article goes on to list following features of such a SMART  DRIVE :

GETTING  TELEMATICS-READY :

·         Any car can be made smart using RFID stickers , mobile apps or retrofitted devices

·         Fast 4G cellular networks will make services available across country

WHAT  IT  CAN  DO :

·         Alert police, hospitals and family after an accident

·         Give drivers real-time alerts from social media data

·         Alert fleet-owners to bad weather and roadblocks on the way

·         Re-route past nearest  fuel station if tyre pressure is low

·         Capture video/photo evidence of accident, dispute or crime

·         Detect driver fatigue and send alerts

·         Continuously monitor truckers for distractions such as cell phones and meals

So much for the “ SMART “ and the “ SAFE “

Can telematics make cars ( for that matter , ALL vehicles ) also “ SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE “  ?

Not only it can , it must !

If you do not have time to go through my following blogs , reproduced below , is a partial list , from

  “  Internet  of Vehicles  “  {  04  March  2017  }

https://myblogepage.blogspot.com/2017/03/internet-of-vehicles-iov.html

=================================

   Most vehicles will  be electric ( essentially , “ computers on wheels “ ), automatically determining the best / shortest, route / stops and optimizing vehicle performance . Mobile Apps will be a governing device

·         Vehicles will be internet connected with one another , exchanging data

·         Vehicles will be internet connected with servers of Transport Authorities / Traffic Police / Pollution Control Boards and a host of other governmental / institutional organizations , and be relaying all sorts of data  24*7 .  Vehicles will report accidents ( being hit ) and thefts ( being stolen ) , on their own !

·         All vehicles will carry a whole lot of “ Sensors “ , which will continuously “ monitor “ the conditions of the vehicles and relay the same to all the authorities

·         All vehicles will be equipped with RADAR – LIDAR –CAMERAS – GPS locators – / Augmented Reality  etc , to avoid collisions / accidents

·         Prepaid RFID chips ( linked to Aadhar / Bank Accounts  ? ) for Road Taxes / Insurance Premiums / Toll charges / Fines / Carbon Credits ( through DBT )

·         In-Built Sensors will measure , ( and request maintenance on their own ! ),

#   Engine ( or Electric Motor ) temperature

     #   Pressures / Displacements / Compression Ratios in case of petrol / diesel

          Vehicles / Battery Charge Levels / fuel consumption

     #   Emission Levels ( PM2.5 / CO2 etc ) in petrol / diesel vehicles

     #   Tyre pressures / wear and tear of moving parts / RPM

     #   Vehicle speed / acceleration / braking distance

     #   Proximity to other moving / stationary vehicles or objects

     #   Weather conditions / Visibility levels / Traffic Density

     #   Condition of the road being traversed ( co-efficient of friction )

     #   Condition of the person driving ( sleepy / drunk etc )

     #   Whatever else you want “ measured / monitored / relayed “

To know , how such an Internet of Vehicles ( IoV ) can solve the various problems listed above , you may want to read my following earlier blogs (  all sent as emails to NDA ministers ) :
