“…Text visualization is the representation of large amount of text using visual metaphors [19][20][21]. It is concerned with getting insight into information obtained from one or more textual documents without users having read those documents.…”

Methods and tools to conduct authorship analysis of web contents is of growing interest to researchers and practitioners in various security-focused disciplines, including cybersecurity, counter-terrorism, and other fields in which authorship of text may at times be uncertain or obfuscated. Here we demonstrate an automated approach for authorship analysis of web contents. Analysis is conducted through the use of machine learning methodologies, an expansive stylometric feature set, and a series of visualizations intended to help facilitate authorship analysis at the author, message, and feature levels. To operationalize this, we utilize a testbed containing 506,554 forum messages in English and Arabic, source from 14,901 authors that participated in an online web forum. A prototype portal system providing authorship comparisons and visualizations was then designed and constructed in order to support feasibility analysis and real world value of the automated authorship analysis approach. A preliminary user evaluation was performed to assess the efficacy of visualizations, with evaluation results demonstrating task performance accuracy and efficiency was improved through use of the portal.

“…Negash and Gray [3] argue that BI is responsible for transcription of data into information and knowledge. Also, it creates some environment for effective decision-making, business processes, strategic thinking, acting in organizations and taking the competitive advantage [26], [27], [28], [29], [30]. Many authors highlight that BI is predisposed to support decision-making on all levels of management [1], [3], [8], [31], [32].…”

Abstract-Although Business Intelligence (BI) is one of the most essential technologies to be purchased, the implementation of many BI applications fails. The reasons for this failure are not clear and still not well investigated. Resource-based View (RBV) and dynamic capability theory could help to overcome this gap and to provide an appropriate theoretical basis for future research in BI area. It is considered that BI capabilities may be critical functionalities that help organizations to improve their performance and adopt to environmental change. The research objectives for this study are: (1) conceptualization and discussion on BI dynamic capability, (2) building the comprehensive framework of BI capabilities. In order to address these objectives, the remainder of the paper is structured as follows: The first sections provide the theoretical foundations of BI, RBV and dynamic capability theory. Next, the BI capability was conceptualized. Finally, a model of BI as a dynamic capability, was proposed. The study was based mainly on: (1) a critical analysis of literature, (2) an observation of different BI initiatives undertaken in various organizations, as well as on (3) interviews with managers and experts in BI. The results of this study can be used by IT and business leaders as they plan and develop BI capabilities in their organizations.

“…Commonly used BIS include data, text and web mining, data warehousing and visualizationbased tools (Chau et al, 2007;Chung et al, 2005;Popovič et al, 2012;Wang and Wang, 2008;). External information for BI is usually acquired from competitors, customers and the business environment via interviews, news reports, patent data and the Internet (Li et al, 2007;Shih et al, 2010;Tekic et al, 2012).…”

Services at the Centre for Maritime Studies, University of Turku. He has acquired extensive experience and knowledge of the marine industry through numerous research projects with which he has been involved. This is an AbstractThe availability of external data sources and information for firms has expanded in recent decades. At the same time, the importance of business intelligence (BI) in the competition between firms has been increasingly highlighted. This competition poses challenges, however, especially for small-and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The purpose of this paper is to delineate a general picture of the conditions of the role of external information in BI as it applies to SMEs in the Finnish marine industry. According to the results, the use of external information in BI was generally occasional and unsystematic. This was due to time and resource limitations to be allocated for BI. However, the interest in developing BI processes is evident. Thus, this study puts forward development proposals that promise to help SMEs enhance and rationalise their BI processes, according to the development targets that they have identified.
