Hello,

I'm an academic at the University of Cambridge's Computer Lab. I'm currently doing some research on how people who work with algorithmic systems keep records about them.

If you're a professional working with algorithmic systems, and happen to have a spare ~20 minutes, would you mind answering some questions? The link to the questionnaire is here: https://cambridge.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3n6RuowNogZKG34

Thanks very much!

What exactly do you mean by an algorithmic system? Your introduction to the form implies you have a pretty broad definition. If that is the case then I think you should also account for a large proportion of your target not being sure that they are actually what you're looking for. Define your terms. Give examples of what you determine inside the definition and examples of what you determine outside of it.

All that said, I think the research area sounds really interesting. I look forward to hearing how it goes.
