-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Big data has become a key asset in modern societies, economies, and
governmental organizations. Big data encompasses various kinds of
complex and large scale information that are beyond the processing
capabilities of conventional software and databases. The increasing
volume and velocity of the data, captured by business organizations,
web repositories, social media, data centres, cloud and IoT, have
resulted in the exponential growth of big data.
Big data provides a key basis for innovations in various domains and
applications. It can benefit data managers, developers, companies and
various kinds of organizations to carry out useful analysis of data
pattern and trends, make intelligent decisions, and solve complex
problems that can help societies and economies and speed up
innovations.

The aim of the Innovate-Data 2017 conference is to promote the state
of the art in scientific and practical research of big data and to
