Aims and Scope
With the rapid advancement of both business techniques and technologies in recent years, knowledge has become an important strategic asset that can determine the success or failure of an organisation. Indeed, research and practice have shown that rapid and effective conversion of data and information into working knowledge is a major contributor to competitive advantage. One very effective response to the needs for creation, aggregation and sharing of knowledge can be found in the sphere of Business Intelligence (BI). Making sound business decisions based on accurate and current information and knowledge requires more than simple intuition, and BI is becoming indispensable to an organisation’s success in the global economy. BI is currently one of the fastest growing areas of information and communication technology with current trends including developments in green computing, social networking, data visualisation, mobile BI, predictive analytics, composite applications, cloud computing, multi-touch and big data, among others. The aim of this special issue is to assess the relevance of these trends in the current business context through evidence-based documentation of current and emerging applications as well as their wider business implications.
We solicit contributions related, but not limited to the following topics:

·       Design and implementation issues in BI involving data warehousing, ETL and OLAP

·       Visualisation and data analytics for BI
