Description

Version: 6.0 start 01 February 2024
 

Short description

The DPS module covers analytical principles for the management of data products and services. Methods for the management of service potentials (e.g. implementation of price differentiation, queue management), service processes (e.g. business process modelling, derivation of business process models from data) and service performance (e.g. modelling of customer lifetime value, implementation of A/B testing) are discussed. In addition, students will be able to implement the presented methods and algorithms in Python using concrete application scenarios and sample data.
