  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: International Series in Operations Research & Management Science ((ISOR,volume 252))

Abstract

The big data era is characterized by the presence of many Vs in terms of data and data usage. In this introductory chapter, we first discuss some challenges in optimization and control for systems in the presence of massive amount of data. We then introduce the papers featured in this book.
