Abstract

In daily practice, discrepancies may exist in the suitability match of actors and the tasks that have been allocated to them. A formal framework for cognitive matchmaking and a prototype implementation are introduced as a possible solution to improve the fit between actors and tasks. A case study has been conducted to clarify how the proposed cognitive matchmaking approach can be utilized in information systems engineering. The inductive-hypothetical research strategy has been applied as an overall research approach. A separate iteration of the strategy has been applied within the case study.
