"The management of any modern organisation involves data, but the volume of information has become almost impossible for even the most up-to-date computer system to handle. Fortunately, big-data technologies are now enabling new ways of dealing with the flood of information, making an approximate solution possible in a reasonable time-frame, as an alternative to waiting for an exact result taking much longer. This book contains the 17 papers presented at the inaugural conference of the new series: Modern Management based on Big Data (MMBD 2020). The conference was originally scheduled to be held in Beijing, China, but due to measures to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, the conference was held online from 18-21 October 2020. As its name suggests, the conference covers the connected aspects of Big Data and Modern Management, and the 17 papers included here, accepted from a total of 56 submissions, cover topics including data capture and storage
search, sharing and analytics
data visualization
machine learning algorithms for big data
distributed file systems and databases
management strategy and decision making
manufacturing and logistics systems
total quality management
management information systems
human factor engineering
and human resources. Providing an overview of current developments in modern management based on Big Data, the book will be of interest to all those working in the field"-- Provided by publisher
