Workshop Topic:
---------------
Data analysis is becoming increasingly important in science and practice. However, organisations and companies are increasingly faced with both challenges and opportunities. In particular, the combination of structured and unstructured data, data engineering and different analysis and visualisation methods pose major challenges, as does the frequent lack of expertise in these areas. The use and analysis of data can improve or even introduce new processes in various areas, but often only with the help of external service providers or internal competence centres. The workshop aims to present and discuss scientific findings on the possibilities and limitations, in order to provide the community with a contribution to this important topic in science and practice.

Possible topics or subject areas (not limited to these):
------------------------------------------------------------
- Development and utilisation of data analytics solutions
- Opportunities and challenges of data analytics in service and production companies
- Organisational anchoring of the development and operation of data analytics solutions (analytics centre of excellence, data science teams, external service providers)
- Utilisation of differently structured data (unstructured, semi-structured, structured) in data analytics projects
- Use of NLP/LLMs, object recognition, voice analytics and process mining in data analytics
- Acceptance and comprehensibility/explainability of data analytics solutions
- Ensuring data quality in analytics projects
- Use of synthetic data for training data analytics solutions
- Compliance and legal aspects of data analytics solutions
- Specifics of data analytics for SMEs
- Going live and operating data analytics solutions
etc.

Both theoretical and practice-oriented contributions related to data analytics are welcome.
