About the Author

Rajendra Akerkar is a professor of information technology at Western Norway Research Institute, Norway. He has 23 years of research and teaching experience in artificial intelligent systems, semantic technologies and big data science. His recent research focuses on real world use of big data, and social media analysis in a wide set of semantic dimensions. He has held senior positions in the key academic conference committees, journal boards and review committees in those fields and he has supervised Ph.D. and research M.Sc. projects in intelligent systems, web intelligence and data science.  He has managed 12 international ICT initiatives, and data-intensive research & development projects for more than 17 years.

Dr Priti Srinivas Sajja (b.1970) joined the faculty of the Department of Computer Science, Sardar Patel University, India in 1994 and is presently working as a Professor. She received her M.S. (1993) and Ph.D (2000) in Computer Science from the Sardar Patel University. Her research interests include knowledge-based systems, soft computing, multi-agent systems, and software engineering. She has 152 publications in books, book chapters, journals, and in the proceedings of national and international conferences out of which five publications have won best research paper awards. She is co-author of 'Knowledge-Based Systems' and 'Intelligent Technologies for Web Applications' published in the USA. She is supervising work of a few doctoral research scholars while six candidates have completed their Ph.D research under her guidance. She was Principal Investigator of a major research project funded by UGC, India. She is serving as a member on the editorial board of many international science journals and served as a program committee member for various international conferences.
