Socio-Cultural Understanding
Socio-cultural understanding lets people collaborate better in team-oriented work environments, assess trends in information sharing, conduct effective strategic communications efforts, and support many other applications dominated by cultural norms and the social network. Overwhelming amounts of increasingly heterogeneous and complex data streams demand a unified approach if we are to extract real meaning and actionable information from data sources. To support socio-cultural understanding, Charles River provides tools for data collection and interpretation, modeling and simulation, and analytical support. We employ a variety of technologies (e.g., agent-based modeling, social media analysis, system dynamics modeling) to meet customer needs in modern information environments.
