*** Second Call for Papers *** 17th International Conference on Business Information Systems BIS 2014 Golden Bay Hotel, Larnaca, Cyprus May 21-23, 2014 http://bis.kie.ue.poznan.pl/17th_bis/ Deadline for submissions: December 20, 2013 (Proceedings will be published in Springer's LNBIP series) THEME OF THE CONFERENCE Big Data: problems solved and remaining challenges The amount of data available for analysis, especially economy-related data, is increasing rapidly. According to MGI and McKinsey's Business Technology Group, Big Data is becoming a key basis of competition, important factor of productivity growth, innovation, consumer surplus as well as organizational effectiveness. Currently, Big Data is one of the hottest trends in the areas like recommendation engines, network monitoring, sentiment analysis, fraud detection, risk modeling, marketing campaign analysis, and social graph analysis. However, there is a need to remodel technologies, applications, infrastructure, and business processes in order to take full advantage of the possibilities offered by Big Data. It is our pleasure to invite you to submit your work to BIS 2014 conference.
