Call for Papers

Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences
HICSS-51: January 3-6, 2018 | Hilton Waikoloa Village, Big Island

Deadline for submissions: June 15, 2017

Minitrack:
Data Analytics Management, Governance and Compliance

Track:
Organizational Systems and Technology

Data analytics have become strategic assets because they can help organizations make better decisions, discover insights, embed intelligence into decision processes to operate at the speed of business and provide inter-organizational partnerships with sharable, actionable information.  With the growing importance and proliferation of data analytics, organizations need new theories, frameworks and methodologies that can help them to realize standards and best practices for managing data, developing and deploying models, managing analytics teams, structuring the analytics function within organizations, designing, charging and staffing governance committees, managing project and deployment risk and advancing analytics capability maturity.  Managing model assets includes: 1) Designing processes to guarantee adherence to data and analytics governance policies and 2) Establishing model management capabilities that support regulatory compliance requirements.

Effective organizational management and governance of data analytic practices are necessary in order to mitigate risks associated with analytics deployment.  Organizations need to capture and manage critical meta-information detailing modeling and environmental assumptions underlying analytics solutions, and they need to establish policies and a culture designed to ensure adherence to the highest ethical standards of data management and predictive model deployment.

This mini track welcomes submissions of original work addressing challenges, theoretical lenses, frameworks, development, evaluation, and impact of data analytics management, governance, and compliance. We also encourage submissions of research-in-progress as well as those that are practically oriented yet have the potential to make significant contributions to the data analytics research community.

Relevant topics for the minitrack include, but are not limited to, the following:

Innovative data and analytics governance approaches
