Overview

We live in an information age in which the daily generation of data can be in zettabytes and in different types of formats used by many disciplines and sectors globally. As a result, there is a growing interest in and growing importance of managing future data, information, and business management. In this special issue, we have a specific focus on methods, steps, prototypes, proofs-of-concept, conceptualization, data or statistical analysis, frameworks (software, conceptual or architectural) and recommendations related to future data, information and business management. As this subject requires an interdisciplinary approach, we welcome any unpublished and high-quality work suitable for this special issue, which can be technical or business-focused, or can have a balance of technical and business contributions.

We also select top authors from the following four conferences IoTBDS 2021 http://www.iotbds.org/?y=2021, COMPLEXIS http://www.complexis.org/?y=2021, FEMIB 2021 http://www.femib.scitevents.org/?y=2021 and IIoTBDSC 2021 http://iiotbdsc.com/2021/.

Prof Reinhold Behringer is working at Knorr Bremse GmbH on the development of autonomous truck systems since April 2019. He previously (7/2017-3/2019) has been employed by Daimler-Protics in the development of the latest Augmented Reality information system for the Mercedes S-Class. He is also a Visiting Professor at Leeds Beckett University, where he was a Professor of Creative Technology from 2005 to 2017. His R&D focus in this academic position was on prototyping applications for eLearning, location-based application development and mobile devices. He has two degrees in Physics (1988: MA, SUNY Buffalo, USA. 1990: Diplom in Physics, University Würzburg, Germany) and a Ph.D. in Engineering (1996: Dr.-Ing., UniBwM München, Germany). His main professional expertise is in autonomous road vehicles and real-time computer vision systems. He participated in the first US DARPA Grand Challenge (2004) and earlier in the development of the very first autonomous road vehicle driving on public roads in Germany (1995) on Autobahn at speeds of 130 km/h. For this vehicle, he has developed a real-time computer vision system for road/lane detection/following and ego-state estimation, based on recursive Kalman filtering. During his following work at Rockwell Scientific (Thousand Oaks, USA) (1996-2005), he has developed several prototype systems for Augmented Reality demonstrators and multi-modal Human-Computer Interaction demonstrations, which did employ real-time computer vision approaches for scene detection and motion/orientation tracking. In his current role at Knorr-Bremse GmbH, he is involved in the development of neural network concepts for utilizing data from various sensors to enable autonomously driving trucks in SAE level 4. He has a substantial publication record and is regularly active in reviewing research proposals for the European Commission and National Funding agencies of EU member states.
