Description
According to Gartner published in Techcrunch, communications media and services are the 3rd largest IT systems spenders with a yearly growth rate of 4.4% with a share of approx. $4 billion in 2011, after banking & securities and manufacturing & natural resources 1. For example, the TV industry was faced with tremendous change in technologies during the past decade, such as the digital switchover, the introduction of HDTV, or the provision of 3D content. Large scale asset repositories and different workflows in the content production process had to be introduced. Other media industries faced similar challenges, as the emergence of digital publishing, digital content distribution, or advancement of in-house customer relationship management infrastructures, and the digitalization of workflows.
This change towards digital implies a more holistic view of information systems and management in media industries to provide optimal system solutions, and eventually cut costs. Where other industries are well researched in terms of their IT system solutions, in media industries the discussion around content repositories, media management solutions, and digital workflows seems to be predominant. Within the context of this publication, a more holistic view towards information systems and management in media industries shall be introduced, and emphasize the importance of research of business information management and systems in media industries.
The media and entertainment industry is the third largest industry segment for investments in information systems. And this particular industry segment is faced with tremendous challenges in terms of organizational, transformational, leadership, customer behaviour, and technological changes. One particular challenge is the transformation of the analogue media world into its digital counterpart. As of today, the successive research of business information management and systems focusing on media and entertainment industries is rather fragmented and stretches over a wide area of research islands such as social media, eCommerce, or eBusiness.
To face this challenge, this book focuses on information management and systems for media and entertainment industries and highlighting their particular needs in production, distribution, and consumption. The book shall gather a scientific community around the theme of business information management and systems in the larger context of media and entertainment industries.
Special Focus on the Notion NEW approaches of Content and Media in Information Systems & Management Applications in Particular in Application Areas as: Big Data, Crowd, Open Data, Linked Data, Cloud Application, New Business Analytics, Information Visualization, Workflow Management, and Global Digital Production Pipelines.
