Calls for papers

 

International Journal of Data Science

 

Special Issue on: "Data Mining: Data Discovery and Network Management"

Guest Editor:
Prof. A. Surendar, Vignan’s university, India

During the last few years, data mining has received increasing attention from different fields, but especially from the business community. This commercial interest has grown mainly because of the awareness of companies that the vast amounts of data collected from customers and their behaviours contain valuable information. If this information can somehow be made explicit, it will be available to improve various business processes.

Data mining deals with the discovery of hidden knowledge, unexpected patterns and new rules from large databases. It is regarded as the key element of a much more elaborate process called knowledge discovery in databases, or KDD, which is closely linked to data warehousing. Data mining can bring significant gains to organisations, for example through better-targeted marketing and enhanced internal performance. The long-term goal of data mining is to create a self-learning organisation that makes optimal use of the information it generates.

The issue will carry revised and substantially extended versions of selected papers presented at the International Conference on Allied Electrical and Communication Systems, but we also strongly encourage researchers unable to participate in the conference to submit articles for this call.
