21st Americas Conference
on Information
Systems (AMCIS’15)
Puerto Rico, August 13-15,
2015
Mini-track: Semantic
Technologies
and Big Data Analytics
Track: Intelligence
and
Intelligent Systems (SIGODIS)
Description
The vision of Semantic
Integration
for Big Data Analytics is to have heterogeneous data linked in
such a way
that machines can understand its meanings for the exchange and
reuse of
large amounts of data across heterogeneous data sources. The
semantic representation
of heterogeneous data, augmented with ontology of domain
theories, will
enable us to link a large network of human knowledge and make
this knowledge
machine-understandable. This will in turn enable various
knowledge systems
to effectively analyze and reason the big data to uncover useful
information.
Semantic Integration of heterogeneous data has been recognized
as one of
the most important research issues and has received considerable
attention
from both academia and industry. Semantic integration has made
significant
progress over several years when numerous issues have been
addressed and
many applications have been developed. However, despite all of
these advances,
the current state of semantic integration requires significant
improvements
to make it more effective in a broader range of applications.
This mini-track
will provide a forum for gaining a better understanding of the
new technologies
and their business aspects for semantic integration for big data
analytics.
Potential authors/researchers are encouraged to submit papers
that address
the issues related to designing, developing, and evaluating the
semantic
integration of large volume of heterogeneous data from the
technical, behavioral,
economical, or managerial perspectives.
Best papers from this
mini-track
will be fast tracked for publication in a special issue of
International
Journal of Intelligent Information Technologies (http://www.idea-group.com/IJIIT).
Suggested topics include,
but
not limited to the following:
· Semantic
interoperability
· Innovative
design artefacts for semantic integration
· Novel
applications for semantic integration for Big Data Analytics
· Semantic
Integration for e-business and e-learning
· Semantic
