Lecture Title: Robotic Process Automation and Chatbots in Large and Complex Organizations
Abstract: This workshop will provide an introduction to Robotic Process Automation and will explain how this technology can be used for automating business processes in large and complex organizations. It will also cover common business and technical challenges that a team may face when trying to introduce an innovative and disruptive technology (such as attracting skilled resources, managing expectations of senior stakeholders, addressing technical stability challenges as well as achieving economies of scale via theintroduction of reusable components). The second half of the workshop will address the topic of Chatbots, their relationship with search engines and how they can assist with simplifying the retrieval of information.
