Information, Communications and Media Technologies for Sustainability: Constructing Data-Driven Policy Narratives

The industry-standard Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM) methodology was applied to construct narratives that weave extant theories with empirical data. The art of developing data-dri…
