Aims and Objectives

The availability of data is driving organizations to store, organize, and
analyze information to make better decisions.  What types of decisions are
being made and with what tools?  Organizations need proper information in
the right form at the right time.  Business intelligence and analytics are
the tools that organizations can use.  How are they justified, used and
implemented?

The theme of this special issue highlights the need for conceptualization
and empirical study of the implications of the roll of business
intelligence and analytics within organizational structures. For this
special issue, we call for high quality research studies from academia,
industry, governments, and non-profits, especially collaborations among
these groups, to address the benefits, justifications, implementation and
use of BI analytics applications in a case study approach.



Topics including various elements of analytics such as
descriptive/retrospective, predictive and prescriptive applications along
with IT based reporting mechanisms that provide actionable information to
stakeholders in an organization (e.g. dashboards, interactive reports,
visualizations, etc).  Case studies incorporating streaming, real-time
initiatives and approaches leveraging structured and unstructured data
sources are welcomed. Case study submissions should go beyond a pure data
and technology focus and extend the scope to include describing the
information creation process (e.g. deciding data sources to be used to
create most effective BI for decision support) and potentially mechanisms
for monitoring effectiveness for BI users.

the following areas:

·      Emerging Trends in Business Intelligence and Business Analytics
