HICSS-2021 MINITRACK: Business Intelligence, Business Analytics and Big Data: Innovation, Deployment and Management

Hawaii International Conference on Systems Science (HICSS-54)

January 5-8, 2021
Grand Hyatt, Kauai

http://hicss.hawaii.ed<http://hicss.hawaii.edu>u

This minitrack, now in its 31st year, is the longest running HICSS minitrack related to business intelligence, business analytics and more recently big data.  Its main focus remains on the organizational issues of BI/BA and big data implementations, rather than the data science and IT perspectives. This particular focus, as well as its long history of research embedded in Decision Support Systems and other research predecessors of contemporary BI/A, creates a minitrack with a rich comprehensive view of organizational issues.

The minitrack remains relevant, thought provoking, collaborative and innovative as new developments and the evolution of data and technologies in the business intelligence (BI)/ business analytics (BA) and big data space continue to create new opportunities and challenges for individuals, organizations and society. More than ever, organizations are facing new data-related and analytics challenges that span the whole life cycle of BI/BA/big data applications and projects. Emerging trends such as the Internet of Things (IoT), augmented analytics powered by machine learning and AI and DataOps, which are enhancing the entire analytics life cycle, are all urging companies to identify new use cases, applications and business models to take advantage of (big) data and analytics. At the same time, companies are experiencing an unprecedented shortage in skills and analytical capabilities, which in turn limit their potential.

This minitrack will accept papers focused on the business, organizational and societal aspects of business intelligence, business analytics and big data as well as challenges related to BI/BA/big data workforce including their education and ongoing professional development. Contributions from the fields of theory building, design research (methods and models), action research as well as analyses of existing or innovative applications are welcome.
