The necessities for building a model to evaluate Business Intelligence projects- Literature Review
In recent years Business Intelligence (BI) systems have consistently been
rated as one of the highest priorities of Information Systems (IS) and business
leaders. BI allows firms to apply information for supporting their processes
and decisions by combining its capabilities in both of organizational and
technical issues. Many of companies are being spent a significant portion of
its IT budgets on business intelligence and related technology. Evaluation of
BI readiness is vital because it serves two important goals. First, it shows
gaps areas where company is not ready to proceed with its BI efforts. By
identifying BI readiness gaps, we can avoid wasting time and resources. Second,

high probability of success. This paper proposes to present an overview of BI
and necessities for evaluation of readiness. Key words: Business intelligence,

Continuous maintenance and the future – Foundations and technological challenges
High value and long life products require continuous maintenance throughout their life cycle to achieve required performance with optimum through-life cost. This paper presents foundations and technologies required to offer the maintenance service. Component and system level degradation science, assessment and modelling along with life cycle ‘big data’ analytics are the two most important knowledge and skill base required for the continuous maintenance. Advanced computing and visualisation technologies will improve efficiency of the maintenance and reduce through-life cost of the product. Future of continuous maintenance within the Industry 4.0 context also identifies the role of IoT, standards and cyber security
