Abstract
Over the years dashboards have become an essential part of managers’ toolkit. The recent developments in the field of IT allowed companies to build complex monitoring and metric-driven solutions for their business needs. The increasing amount of complexity in these dashboards resulted in the increased cost of maintenance and further development. In addition, large corporations have experienced concerns with designing dashboards that are suitable for multiple roles within the organization, i.e. showing the appropriate metrics to people at different positions. By having a self-adjusting, adaptable dashboard, businesses would not only increase the productivity of their workers but could benefit from a fully-fledged Adaptable System (AS) that requires little to no maintenance while performing better than a manually-built and maintained dashboard. Nevertheless, such a system would have a broader set of additional requirements that will be discussed later. This paper presents the design and the architecture of types of adaptable dashboards that address the above-mentioned concerns.
