=== TRACK DESCRIPTION ===

Full version: http://ecis2018.eu/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/ECIS2018_Track07Business-Analytics-Management-and-Applications.pdf

Digitization has become heavily embedded today’s business operations. This, among many other drivers, is fueling the assimilation of business intelligence and business analytics approaches within organizations across various industries as more and more data becomes available allowing for more detailed analyses. Business Analytics Management research explores organizational and technological advances to improve business performance in a continuous and iterative way. Business intelligence and business analytics approaches typically include ETL, OLAP as well as exploratory data analysis techniques to provide historical, current, and predictive views of the business. However, limited attention has been given to the individual’s perspective focusing on personal objectives and characteristics as enabling or suppressing factors to business intelligence and business analytics use. The big data challenge, fueled by increasing variety, volume, velocity, and veracity of data, bares large potential for research and practice by extending existing analytics beyond the traditional organizational borders. New phenomena or paradigm changes from the use of analytics approaches emerge the same way as other business models do. Furthermore, the availability of seemingly endless computing and cheaper storage capabilities available through the cloud computing enables new opportunities in providing a global gateway to information as a service. Motivated by the explosion of interest in these emerging fields, the Business Analytics Management and Applications track promotes multidisciplinary contributions dealing with managerial, economic, cultural, architectural, and technological perspectives on the management of business intelligence and business analytics technology as well as applications. Submissions based on theoretical research, design research, action research, or behavioral research are encouraged. We welcome full research papers, research in progress papers, and prototype papers.

The track’s topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Management of Business Intelligence and Business Analytics (BI&A) and Big Data * Strategic and change management issues stemming from BI&A and big data * Business value and success of BI&A and big data * Big data driven business model innovation * Organizational issues in BI&A and big data implementation and operations * Adoption, routinization, maturity, and use of BI&A and big data * Data quality, data governance * Conceptual modeling of BI&A and big data * Societal impact of BI&A and big data * Emerging trends in BI&A and big data
