Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue aims to explore how big data, knowledge management, and IoT policy actions, strategies, and tools can provide efficient solutions for new challenges in disruptive times, such as covid-19 and post-covid-19 scenarios.
Data have become a strategic asset for companies, economies, and societies, both now and in the future knowledge economy. The value extracted from data (agriculture data, geographical data, energy consumption data, health data, transport data, etc.) is leading to innovation. Thus, the generation of value in the different parts of the data value chain will become a key issue in the near future for transforming industries and services, increasing productivity and efficiency.
The collection of papers in the Special Issue will provide theoretical insights and empirical evidence from around the world on how companies, organizations, and economies can unleash the potential of big data and IoT to creatively and efficiently solve new challenges.
