Digitalization in the form of Big Data and Digital Twin inspired applications are hot topics in today's bio-manufacturing organizations. As a result, many organizations are diverting resources (personnel and equipment) to these applications. In this manuscript, a targeted survey was conducted amongst individuals from the Danish biotech industry to understand the current state and perceived future obstacles in implementing digitalization concepts in biotech production processes. The survey consisted of 13 questions related to the current level of application of 1) Big Data analytics and 2) Digital Twins, as well as obstacles to expanding these applications. Overall, 33 individuals responded to the survey, a group spanning from bio-chemical to biopharmaceutical production. Over 73% of the respondents indicated that their organization has an enterprise-wide level plan for digitalization, it can be concluded that the digitalization drive in the Danish biotech industry is well underway. However, only 30% of the respondents reported a well-established business case for the digitalization applications in their organization. This is a strong indication that the value proposition for digitalization applications is somewhat ambiguous. Further, it was reported that digital twin applications (58%) were more widely used than Big Data analytic tools (37%). On top of the lack of a business case, organizational readiness was identified as a critical hurdle that needs to be overcome for both Digital Twin and Big Data applications. Infrastructure was another key hurdle for implementation, with only 6% of the respondents stating that their production processes were 100% covered by advanced process analytical technologies.

Dimension reduction or feature selection is thought to be the backbone of big data applications in order to improve performance. Many scholars have shifted their attention in recent years to data science and analysis for real-time applications using big data integration. It takes a long time for humans to interact with big data. As a result, while handling high workload in a distributed system, it is necessary to make feature selection elastic and scalable. In this study, a survey of alternative optimizing techniques for feature selection are presented, as well as an analytical result analysis of their limits. This study contributes to the development of a method for improving the efficiency of feature selection in big complicated data sets.

Consumers are spending more and more time on the web to search information and receive e-services. E-commerce, e-government, e-business, e-learning, e-science, etc. reflect the growing importance of the web in all aspects of our lives. Along with the tremendous growth of online information, the use of big data has become a vital force in growing revenues. Consumers are today shopping multiple products across multiple channels online. This transformation is substantial and many of the e-commerce companies have now turned to big data analytics for focused customer group targeting using opinion mining for evaluating campaign strategies and maintaining a competitive advantage, especially during the festive shopping season. So, the role of intelligent techniques in e-servicing is massive. This chapter focuses on the importance of big data (since there is a large volume of data online) and big data analytics in the field of e-servicing and explains the various applications, platforms to implement the big data applications, and security issues in the era of big data and e-servicing.

Big data is in every industry. It is being utilized in almost all business functions within these industries. Basically, it creates value by converting human decisions into transformed automated algorithms using various tools and techniques. In this chapter, the authors look towards big data analytics from the healthcare perspective. Healthcare involves the whole supply chain of industries from the pharmaceutical companies to the clinical research centres, from the hospitals to individual physicians, and anyone who is involved in the medical arena right from the supplier to the consumer (i.e. the patient). The authors explore the growth of big data analytics in the healthcare industry including its limitations and potential.

The article shares the authors' experiences in training bachelor-level students to explore Big Data applications in solving nowadays problems. The article discusses curriculum issues and pedagogical techniques connected to developing Big Data competencies. The following objectives are targeted: The importance and impact of making rational, data driven decisions in the Big Data era; Complexity of developing and exploring a Big Data Application in solving real life problems; Learning skills to adopt and explore emerging technologies; and Knowledge and skills to interpret and communicate results of data analysis via combining domain knowledge with system expertise. The curriculum covers: The two general uses of Big Data Analytics Applications, which are well distinguished from the point of view of end-user's objectives (presenting and visualizing data via aggregation and summarization [data warehousing: data cubes, dash boards, etc.] and learning from Data [data mining techniques]); Organization of Data Sources: distinction of Master Data from Operational Data, in particular; Extract-Transform-Load (ETL) process; and Informing vs. Misinforming, including the issue of over-trust vs. under-trust of obtained analytical results.

Nowadays, we are observing a growing interest about Big Data applications in different healthcare sectors. One of this is definitely cardiology. In fact, electrocardiogram produces a huge amount of data about the heart health status that need to be stored and analysed in order to detect a possible issues. In this paper, we focus on the arrhythmia detection problem. Specifically, our objective is to address the problem of distributed processing considering big data generated by electrocardiogram (ECG) signals in order to carry out pre-processing analysis. Specifically, an algorithm for the identification of heartbeats and arrhythmias is proposed. Such an algorithm is designed in order to carry out distributed processing over the Cloud since big data could represent the bottleneck for cardiology applications. In particular, we implemented the Menard algorithm in Apache Spark in order to process big data coming form ECG signals in order to identify arrhythmias. Experiments conducted using a dataset provided by the Physionet.org European ST-T Database show an improvement in terms of response times. As highlighted by our outcomes, our solution provides a scalable and reliable system, which may address the challenges raised by big data in healthcare.

Big data technologies offer new opportunities for analyzing historical data generated by process plants. The development of new types of operator support systems (OSS) which help the plant operators during operations and in dealing with critical situations is one of these possibilities. The project FEE has the objective to develop such support functions based on big data analytics of historical plant data. In this contribution, we share our first insights and lessons learned in the development of big data applications and outline the approaches and tools that we developed in the course of the project.

The authors in this chapter show the essence, dignity, current state, and development prospects of avatar-based management using blockchain technology for improving implementation of economic solutions in the digital economy of Russia. The purpose of this chapter is not to review the existing published work on avatar-based models for policy advice, but to try an assessment of the merits and problems of avatar-based models as a solid basis for economic policy advice that is mainly based on the work and experience within the recently finished projects Triple H Avatar, an avatar-based software platform for HHH University, Sydney, Australia. The agenda of this project was to develop an avatar-based closed model with strong empirical grounding and micro-foundations that provides a uniform platform to address issues in different areas of digital economic and creating new tools to improve blockchain technology using the intelligent visualization techniques for big data analytic.
