<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Both academia and organizations show great interest in streaming big data analytics - the process of extracting knowledge structures from continuous, high volume and high
velocity continuous flow of data in a myriad of formats from a variety of real-time data sources. The challenge for organizations lies in being able to transform this deluge of data into instantaneous intelligence that can enable faster, better business decisions.
For academia, mining streaming data is still not a mature discipline which faces some unique theoretical and practical challenges. This minitrack aims to present and share new research in defining and highlighting the values of stream data analytics, including
new theory, algorithms, innovation in methodologies, and benefits from variety applications. Topics include, but are not constrained only to:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
