Infonomics is the theory, study and discipline of asserting economic significance to information. It provides the framework for businesses to value, manage and wield information as a real asset. Infonomics endeavors to apply both economic and asset management principles and practices to the valuation, handling and deployment of information assets. The term is a composite of “information” and “economics.” ==Origination and History== In the late 1990s, then META Group and now Gartner IT industry analyst (Doug Laney ) coined the term ''Infonomics'' to describe his proprietary research and consulting around quantifying information’s value and defining how to manage information as an actual enterprise asset.〔META Trends, META Group, December 1999 (out of print)〕 This concept stemmed from his work with data warehouse pioneer Prism Solutions (now part of IBM) at which he and his professional services colleagues developed information auditing techniques to validate and qualify and quantify source data quality characteristics and potential business value. These methods were formalized into Prism's commercial (ITERATIONS ) data warehouse methodology still offered by IBM. Laney’s work builds on and intersects with other disciples including: * Claude Shannon’s Information Theory * Paul Strassmann' s work on valuing IT * macro economics * asset valuation * asset management * intangible assets * Generally Accepted Accounting Principles 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Infonomics」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
