Photocopy King Pushes Paperless Office
Thursday, October 9th, 2008An interesting article in the New York Times on Xerox and the Paperless / “Less Paper” Office.
Technologies mentioned include Extensible Interface Platform, or the direct access to workflows from the Multi-Function Device, Xerox Mortgage Services, Xerox Litigation Services. The only advanced research project mentioned is “Intelligent Redaction“, a PARC technology which controls access to sensitive information.
Also interesting is the mention that Xerox has joined the Information Overload Research Group, an organization in charge of “reducing information pollution” and lists things like feeds, voice mail, social networks, interruptions, blogs, Web 2.0 services and search engines as “polluters”.
