Efficient decision making based on business intelligence (BI) is essential to ensure competitiveness for sustainable growth. The rapid development of information and communication technology has made collection and analysis of big data essential, resulting in a considerable increase in academic studies on big data and big data analysis (BDA). However, many of these studies are not linked to BI, as companies do not understand and utilize the concepts in an integrated way. Therefore, the purpose of this study is twofold. First, we review the literature on BI, big data, and BDA to show that they are not separate methods but an integrated decision support system. Second, we explore how businesses use big data and BDA practically in conjunction with BI through a case study of sorting and logistics processing of a typical courier enterprise. We focus on the company’s cost efficiency as regards to data collection, data analysis/simulation, and the results from actual application. Our findings may enable companies to achieve management efficiency by utilizing big data through efficient BI without investing in additional infrastructure. It could also give them indirect experience, thereby reducing trial and error in order to maintain or increase competitiveness.

The paper proposed a practice teaching mode by making analysis on Didi data set. There are more and more universities have provided the big data analysis courses with the rapid development and wide application of big data analysis technology. The theoretical knowledge of big data analysis is professional and hard to understand. That may reduce students' interest in learning and learning motivation. And the practice teaching plays an important role between theory learning and application. This paper first introduces the theoretical teaching part of the course, and the theoretical methods involved in the course. Then the practice teaching content of Didi data analysis case was briefly described. And the study selects the related evaluation index to evaluate the teaching effect through questionnaire survey and verify the effectiveness of teaching method. The results show that 78% of students think that practical teaching can greatly improve students' interest in learning, 89% of students think that practical teaching can help them learn theoretical knowledge, 89% of students have basically mastered the method of big data analysis technology introduced in the course, 90% of students think that the teaching method proposed in this paper can greatly improve students' practical ability. The teaching mode is effective, which can improve the learning effect and practical ability of students in data analysis, so as to improve the teaching effect.

The chapter discusses how Financial Services organizations can take advantage of Big Data analysis for disruptive innovation through examination of a case study in the financial services industry. Popular tools for Big Data Analysis are discussed and the challenges of big data are explored as well as how these challenges can be met. The work of Hayes-Roth in Valued Information at the Right Time (VIRT) and how it applies to the case study is examined. Boyd's model of Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act (OODA) is explained in relation to disruptive innovation in financial services. Future trends in big data analysis in the financial services domain are explored.

Database is defined as a set of data that is organized and distributed in a manner that permits the user to access the data being stored in an easy and more convenient manner. However, in the era of big-data the traditional methods of data analytics may not be able to manage and process the large amount of data. In order to develop an efficient way of handling big-data, this work enhances the use of Map-Reduce technique to handle big-data distributed on the cloud. This approach was evaluated using Hadoop server and applied on Electroencephalogram (EEG) Big-data as a case study. The proposed approach showed clear enhancement on managing and processing the EEG Big-data with average of 50% reduction on response time. The obtained results provide EEG researchers and specialist with an easy and fast method of handling the EEG big data.

With the rapid development of cloud computing, Internet of Things, and other technologies, the information technology trend led by “big data” has an impact on all fields. The application of big data technology in the field of ecological environmental protection enables accurate and comprehensive ecological information collection, data analysis, and mining, accurate ecological problem identification, and effective solution. Taking Dongting Lake Ecological Area as an example, this paper constructs an ecological environment information system based on big data and expounds its specific application in water, atmosphere, soil environment monitoring, and pollution control, aiming to provide a reference for the application of big data technology in the field of ecological environment protection in Dongting Lake Ecological Area and more effectively maintain the ecological environmental quality and safety in the area.
