1. Introduction
In today’s technological era, the usage of social media networks is rising quickly and
boundlessly, these SM networks are considered as a significant pool for unsorted data in
massive quantity. Social media effect determines its influencer’s ability to inspire a group of
people’s thought, emotional state and features in operational and structured societies. The
exploratory research on the inspirational activities impacts multiple types of areas from
numerous perceptions which includes tactical planning and concluding results unless
generation and delivery of the product. The major purpose of this literature search report is to
demonstrate the usage of different tactics of data science to investigate impact of social media
while considering the interaction between influences and their followers. Subsequently a
critical evaluation of approximately fifty-five research papers we conducted that four data
representation models have been utilized with SM networks and ten 10 data investigative
tactics to report six different kinds of research aims considering more than twenty area. Based
on the prior literature, graph was regarded as the most utilized data investigative tactic and data
representation model while considering the relationship between connectivity and end-users.
Social media is regarded as a cluster of internet-based application which are created on the
technological and ideological framework of Web 2.0. One major feature of social media
network is that it initializes the production and argument of content created but end-users. The
main distinctive characteristic in social media impacting the professional corporations may be
exactly the truth that the networks and content are generated by users.
Based on Statista study (H. Tankovska, 2017), approximately 3.6 billion individuals were
utilizing social media networks all over the globe which was raised to around 4,41 billion by
2025. The report demonstrated that approximately 4.57 billion individuals around the globe
utilizes the internet service among those nearly 346 million new users came online prior to one
year.
The users of internet allocate around 144 minutes as an average on a social media per 24 hours.
The procedure of mining and investigating social media networks facilitates in collecting data
which enhance impact growth.
Different social media networks are utilized by people to communicate with people all over the
globe to familiarize themselves to others by exposing their daily live update and follow
different pages and channels. This impulsive behaviour generated which is nowadays
recognized as influencers that alters, the way that corporation interact with their users. This
research facilitates in selecting the accurate representation framework and analytics procedure
which coordinates with analysis perspective and connects with specialized platforms. The best
possible procedure to response certain query of efficiency contrasting different literature
studies is to generate a literature search report.
The major objective of this report is to investigate different primary researches relevant to role
of data science is social media networks the given research queries were generated.
• RQ1: Which procedures have been cast-off to investigate users associated data in social
media?
• RQ2: What is the aim of investigating users associated data in social media?
• RQ3: How is it probable to practise investigating methods while considering interactions
between followers and influencers?
2. Literature Search
One of the major reason due to which social media network’s control deceits in its data. And
for this reason, they require majority of it as their tendency to persuade end-users to exchange
data relevant to every single moment. The huge pool of information at the removal of social
media organizations reflects thus people interact with each other and at the midpoint of these
coordination resides worthless data relevant to what individuals and communities possess
important. This amount of information, along with the rapid rate of information stream that SM
is famous for, shows the basis of huge data. By implementing analytics techniques of data
science to the bulk of information produced through social media, huge information
applications in multiple area move on the distant side the method of coordinating to viewing
this the information present within the coordination may possess an impact on organizational
performance and individual’s read of a whole. The techniques of data science help
organizations to minimize unnecessary data from the insightful information that users upload.
As an instance, analytical techniques will be automated to track the positive or negative opinion
a couple of whole as this may portend revenue and name.
As a bulk of information is gathered from multiple sources it is predictable that the majority of
data is gathered from amorphous source. Subsequently, social media networks are considered
to produce the most significant stream of amorphous data. Such as comments, likes, views,
subscriptions and all other activities which users perform on different social media platforms
will be gathered and investigated by concerned groups. One main feature of social media
network is that it adjusts the production and dispute of content created but end-users. The main
distinctive characteristic in social media impacting the professional corporations may be
precisely the truth that the networks and content are generated by users.
In this era of digitalization, social media networks are vital for different businesses. Preserving
an occurrence on mediums such as Twitter and LinkedIn are vital as a consequence of it allows
people to coordinate with the organization on deceptively confidential level which helps
businesses through numerous leads. Collectively it is important for the representative user.
Approximately, 2 billion monthly clients are boasted by Facebook itself relating to 26 of the
whole globe population. Therefore, it is necessary to ponder over the fact that huge amount of
information is gathered from social media platforms in an incredible range of arrangements.
According to a research, huge information investigations facilitate corporation to utilize their
data to find innovative opportunities (Sahatiya, 2018). Consequently, it provides a smarter
business interchange, supplementary economical functionality, high revenues and satisfied
customers. Moreover, in this study Tom Davenport director of analysis IIA interrogated around
50 different businesses to know about huge information in big organizations. Thus, they
utilized the following approaches:
1. Cost minimization: huge information technologies such as cloud-based analysis and
Hadoop created significant value aids once it includes loading huge amount of
information and they would recognize supplementary economical methods of
enhancing business.
2. Rapid and high perceptive procedure: Different business industries are capable to
investigate data and create selections reinforced with what they have acquired due to
high speed of in-memory analytics and Hadoop. These technologies are constituted
with the elasticity to analyze innovative sources of knowledge.
3. Innovative service and products: The services which customers require to fulfill their
needs and attain satisfaction can easily be achieved with the flexibility of data analytics.
Tom Davenport observed that with huge information investigation, supplementary
organization’s field unit generating innovative products to satisfy customer’s needs.
Subsequently, a huge amount of exploratory research, some reviews on social media analytics
already present in prior literatures. A recent research conducted demonstrated how advantages
can be created through analysis of data produced by social media networks along with different
challenges. Moreover, a literature review conducted in 2017 shows how social media analytics
reinforced decision making (Rathore et al., 2017). The researcher demonstrated different
analytical methods which are utilized in numerous circumstances for improved decision
making. Additionally, they utilized approaches that are often used but possess higher potential
for enhanced decision making. Besides these studies on unambiguous application units can be
observed in former literature studies. A research on social media analytics in healthcare
demonstrates the utility and benefits of data science in this sector. In contrast a study found in
2018 showed the potentials of utilizing social media analytics to manage disaster circumstances
(Wang and Ye, 2018). For the classification of the literature, they recommended a framework
that related to the 4 most related areas in managing disaster situations.
Moreover, there are numerous research that observed different issues in the area of social media
analysis which can be resolved using data science application. An existing study recognized
different analytics tools and technologies from the sector of data science (Sahatiya, 2018). A
cluster of issues suffered by researchers in this area of studies can be identified in an article
published in 2018 (Stieglitz et al., 2018). The outcomes showed that the main issue found in
the detection, gathering and creation of social media data. They utilized their outcomes to
expand a prior framework model for social media analytics. An analogous aim is chased by an
author in 2018. In the first state of analysis, they observed that there is a need of evidently
defined guides for social media data analysis (Sebei et al., 2018). They considered it as a chance
to recognize technologies in the sophisticated research area of data science which can be
utilized for the social media analytics. The prior research demonstrates the relevance but
besides this complexity of the research requires in the area of social media analytics. There is
numerous research which related to solitary application sectors such as natural disaster and
health or those which focuses on particular approaches in a special application sector.
Based on prior literature reviews there is no solitary technological tool or procedure which
incorporates huge informative analysis. Thus, there are numerous sophisticated techniques of
data science which can be implemented to huge amount of information. Nevertheless,
fundamentally multiple types of technologies work by side to guide researchers to get the
highest value from collected data. The following are some main concepts of data science in
analyzing data:
 Management of Data
 Data mining
 In-memory analytics
 Predictive analysis
 Text mining
The literature search report approach combines the core concepts of research queries to attain
accurate outcomes. This synopsis initiated with an organized construction of different
keywords which included social media, followers, influencers, data science, analysis,
innovative analytical techniques used to explore three databases ACM Digital library, Springer
and Science Direct. Besides we also added different synonyms, alterations and relevant terms
for each defined keyword. Moreover, the usage of Boolean operator AND and OR allowed us
to search combination of different terms.

Maximizing product
adoption in social
networks
Year:2012 96 This and other previous
papers tacitly assume that a
user who is influenced (or,
informed) about a product
necessarily adopts the
product and encourages her
friends to adopt it.
However, an influenced
user may not adopt the
product herself, and yet
form an opinion based on
the experiences of her
friends, and share this
opinion with others.

network: a follower's
perspective
Year:2007 52 This paper propose two
models for the spread of
influence of competing
technologies through a
social network and consider
the influence maximization
problem from the follower's
perspective. In particular
we assume the follower has
a fixed budget available
that can be used to target a
subset of consumers and
show that, although it is
NP-hard to select the most
influential subset to target,
it is possible to give an
efficient algorithm that is
within 63% of optimal.

Year:2013 67 This paper discusses the use
of social networks in
implementing viral
marketing strategies. While
influence maximization has
been studied in this context
(see Chapter 24 of [10]), we
study revenue
maximization, arguably, a
more natural objective. In
our model, a buyer's
decision to buy an item is
influenced by the set of
other buyers that own the
item and the price at which
the item is offered.
We focus on algorithmic
question of finding revenue
maximizing marketing
strategies.

point out that the essential
reason of the dilemma is the
surprising fact that the
submodularity, a key
requirement of the objective
function for a greedy
algorithm to approximate
the optimum, is not
guaranteed in all
conventional greedy
algorithms in the literature
of influence maximization.

intensity are
qualitatively very
different depending
on the type of
sentiment. Generally,
we find that larger
numbers of
opinionated
neighbors inhibit the
expression of
sentiments. We also
find that exposure to
negative sentiment is
contagious - by
which we merely
mean predictive of
future negative
sentiment expression
- while exposure to
positive sentiments is
generally not.

3. Selection Criteria
During the process of literature search, it was a great challenge to review all relevant prior
research and thus we conducted review for only selected research papers. But reviewing
selected studies generated the risk of overseeing few of significant research. Thus, our major
focus was only to recognize the main concerns and identify persuasive research on the title of
study. Regarding selection of research papers, we conducted a citation frequency investigation
to regulate which research should be included and circulate the basis of purpose statement. The
reference indexes of ACM Digital library demonstrated a wide image on which researchers and
studies were often referenced by different authors and thus graded based on their indexing
frequency. It was observed that Science Direct possessed more reference index in contrasts to
Springer and ACM Digital library, as in whole Science Direct has referenced more research
papers and different types of publication in comparison to other databases. There is numerous
research which offered outstanding outlines of the issues related to the usage of ISI web
information as a dataset described in a prior research (Harzing and van der Wal, 2008).
Subsequently the search consequences obtained from different database sources a cluster of
inclusion and exclusion conditions were applied to facilitate in the recognition of related
primary research. Thus, inclusion condition is utilized to choose primary research which shows
relevant data analysis procedure, determination and interaction between followers and
influences in social media network. Whereas for exclusion condition they are utilized to
eradicate primary research which do not focuses on main title researched in the above
background context, are unavailable and directly relevant to an existing research of the similar
researcher.
Inclusion Condition:
 Research which shows similarity in at least one of the researched terms.
 Research that possesses best practices forms.
 Studies that are relevant to social media networks relevant to data science.
 Studies that are relevant to the concept of effect in social media network.
 Studies which are relevant to research queries.
Exclusion Condition
 Research which does not shows similarity in at least one of the researched terms.
 Research that does not possess best practices forms.
 Studies which are published prior to 31.12.1999.
 Studies that are not relevant to the concept of effect in social media network.
 Studies which are not relevant to research queries.

4. Conclusion
The existing literature search report pursued to constitute in the recognition of end-users
relevant to data science analytics procedures along with to show the main purpose of analysis
and the areas that were highly impacted by the influence of social media networks. This report
entailed literature reviews published between 2000 to 2020 era. The outcomes of the review
were four data representation models, ten data analytics procedure and six major perspectives
behind social media networks relevant to data analytics and around twenty area were observed.
The selected research papers demonstrated that Graphs are regarded as the most utilized
procedure for data representation model. The major purpose of this literature search report is
to demonstrate the usage of different tactics of data science to investigate impact of social
media while considering the interaction between influences and their followers. The major
objective of this study was to investigate different primary researches relevant to role of data
science is social media networks the given research queries were generated. 1. Which
procedures have been cast-off to investigate users associated data in social media? 2. What is
the aim of investigating users associated data in social media?3. How is it probable to practise
investigating methods while considering interactions between followers and influencers?
The main perspective was to analyze the interaction and user’s coordination. The topmost
inter-related areas with social media networks found were Computer Science, Business and
Sociology. For future study, it is recommended to generate a data mining strategy to find the
interaction between users and influences with the help of Graph. Moreover, graph matching
and transformation procedures can also be implemented on the interaction framework utilizing
Graph Matching and Transformation Engine (GMTE) for analysis.
Although, the research was cautiously performed but we have to confess few limitations.
Because of huge number of studies, it was not probable to sought the whole literature. The list
of research papers in this sector is not a complete list. Additionally, due to increment in the
number of studies, research in same area may be in process. Another major limitation is that
some research papers and articles were not directly accessible through internet. Consequently,
the influence of social media networks and the usage of data science for data analytics are
evolving interdisciplinary study disciplines. Area of research such as data security and
protection, legal challenges and ethics can be determined and studied under numerous aspects
in the upcoming years.

  • 4. 1. Introduction In today’s technological era, the usage of social media networks is rising quickly and boundlessly, these SM networks are considered as a significant pool for unsorted data in massive quantity. Social media effect determines its influencer’s ability to inspire a group of people’s thought, emotional state and features in operational and structured societies. The exploratory research on the inspirational activities impacts multiple types of areas from numerous perceptions which includes tactical planning and concluding results unless generation and delivery of the product. The major purpose of this literature search report is to demonstrate the usage of different tactics of data science to investigate impact of social media while considering the interaction between influences and their followers. Subsequently a critical evaluation of approximately fifty-five research papers we conducted that four data representation models have been utilized with SM networks and ten 10 data investigative tactics to report six different kinds of research aims considering more than twenty area. Based on the prior literature, graph was regarded as the most utilized data investigative tactic and data representation model while considering the relationship between connectivity and end-users. Social media is regarded as a cluster of internet-based application which are created on the technological and ideological framework of Web 2.0. One major feature of social media network is that it initializes the production and argument of content created but end-users. The main distinctive characteristic in social media impacting the professional corporations may be exactly the truth that the networks and content are generated by users. Based on Statista study (H. Tankovska, 2017), approximately 3.6 billion individuals were utilizing social media networks all over the globe which was raised to around 4,41 billion by 2025. The report demonstrated that approximately 4.57 billion individuals around the globe utilizes the internet service among those nearly 346 million new users came online prior to one year. The users of internet allocate around 144 minutes as an average on a social media per 24 hours. The procedure of mining and investigating social media networks facilitates in collecting data which enhance impact growth. Different social media networks are utilized by people to communicate with people all over the globe to familiarize themselves to others by exposing their daily live update and follow different pages and channels. This impulsive behaviour generated which is nowadays recognized as influencers that alters, the way that corporation interact with their users. This research facilitates in selecting the accurate representation framework and analytics procedure which coordinates with analysis perspective and connects with specialized platforms. The best possible procedure to response certain query of efficiency contrasting different literature studies is to generate a literature search report. The major objective of this report is to investigate different primary researches relevant to role of data science is social media networks the given research queries were generated.
  • 5. • RQ1: Which procedures have been cast-off to investigate users associated data in social media? • RQ2: What is the aim of investigating users associated data in social media? • RQ3: How is it probable to practise investigating methods while considering interactions between followers and influencers? 2. Literature Search One of the major reason due to which social media network’s control deceits in its data. And for this reason, they require majority of it as their tendency to persuade end-users to exchange data relevant to every single moment. The huge pool of information at the removal of social media organizations reflects thus people interact with each other and at the midpoint of these coordination resides worthless data relevant to what individuals and communities possess important. This amount of information, along with the rapid rate of information stream that SM is famous for, shows the basis of huge data. By implementing analytics techniques of data science to the bulk of information produced through social media, huge information applications in multiple area move on the distant side the method of coordinating to viewing this the information present within the coordination may possess an impact on organizational performance and individual’s read of a whole. The techniques of data science help organizations to minimize unnecessary data from the insightful information that users upload. As an instance, analytical techniques will be automated to track the positive or negative opinion a couple of whole as this may portend revenue and name. As a bulk of information is gathered from multiple sources it is predictable that the majority of data is gathered from amorphous source. Subsequently, social media networks are considered to produce the most significant stream of amorphous data. Such as comments, likes, views, subscriptions and all other activities which users perform on different social media platforms will be gathered and investigated by concerned groups. One main feature of social media network is that it adjusts the production and dispute of content created but end-users. The main distinctive characteristic in social media impacting the professional corporations may be precisely the truth that the networks and content are generated by users. In this era of digitalization, social media networks are vital for different businesses. Preserving an occurrence on mediums such as Twitter and LinkedIn are vital as a consequence of it allows people to coordinate with the organization on deceptively confidential level which helps businesses through numerous leads. Collectively it is important for the representative user. Approximately, 2 billion monthly clients are boasted by Facebook itself relating to 26 of the whole globe population. Therefore, it is necessary to ponder over the fact that huge amount of information is gathered from social media platforms in an incredible range of arrangements. According to a research, huge information investigations facilitate corporation to utilize their data to find innovative opportunities (Sahatiya, 2018). Consequently, it provides a smarter
  • 6. business interchange, supplementary economical functionality, high revenues and satisfied customers. Moreover, in this study Tom Davenport director of analysis IIA interrogated around 50 different businesses to know about huge information in big organizations. Thus, they utilized the following approaches: 1. Cost minimization: huge information technologies such as cloud-based analysis and Hadoop created significant value aids once it includes loading huge amount of information and they would recognize supplementary economical methods of enhancing business. 2. Rapid and high perceptive procedure: Different business industries are capable to investigate data and create selections reinforced with what they have acquired due to high speed of in-memory analytics and Hadoop. These technologies are constituted with the elasticity to analyze innovative sources of knowledge. 3. Innovative service and products: The services which customers require to fulfill their needs and attain satisfaction can easily be achieved with the flexibility of data analytics. Tom Davenport observed that with huge information investigation, supplementary organization’s field unit generating innovative products to satisfy customer’s needs. Subsequently, a huge amount of exploratory research, some reviews on social media analytics already present in prior literatures. A recent research conducted demonstrated how advantages can be created through analysis of data produced by social media networks along with different challenges. Moreover, a literature review conducted in 2017 shows how social media analytics reinforced decision making (Rathore et al., 2017). The researcher demonstrated different analytical methods which are utilized in numerous circumstances for improved decision making. Additionally, they utilized approaches that are often used but possess higher potential for enhanced decision making. Besides these studies on unambiguous application units can be observed in former literature studies. A research on social media analytics in healthcare demonstrates the utility and benefits of data science in this sector. In contrast a study found in 2018 showed the potentials of utilizing social media analytics to manage disaster circumstances (Wang and Ye, 2018). For the classification of the literature, they recommended a framework that related to the 4 most related areas in managing disaster situations. Moreover, there are numerous research that observed different issues in the area of social media analysis which can be resolved using data science application. An existing study recognized different analytics tools and technologies from the sector of data science (Sahatiya, 2018). A cluster of issues suffered by researchers in this area of studies can be identified in an article published in 2018 (Stieglitz et al., 2018). The outcomes showed that the main issue found in the detection, gathering and creation of social media data. They utilized their outcomes to expand a prior framework model for social media analytics. An analogous aim is chased by an author in 2018. In the first state of analysis, they observed that there is a need of evidently defined guides for social media data analysis (Sebei et al., 2018). They considered it as a chance to recognize technologies in the sophisticated research area of data science which can be utilized for the social media analytics. The prior research demonstrates the relevance but besides this complexity of the research requires in the area of social media analytics. There is
  • 7. numerous research which related to solitary application sectors such as natural disaster and health or those which focuses on particular approaches in a special application sector. Based on prior literature reviews there is no solitary technological tool or procedure which incorporates huge informative analysis. Thus, there are numerous sophisticated techniques of data science which can be implemented to huge amount of information. Nevertheless, fundamentally multiple types of technologies work by side to guide researchers to get the highest value from collected data. The following are some main concepts of data science in analyzing data:  Management of Data  Data mining  In-memory analytics  Predictive analysis  Text mining The literature search report approach combines the core concepts of research queries to attain accurate outcomes. This synopsis initiated with an organized construction of different keywords which included social media, followers, influencers, data science, analysis, innovative analytical techniques used to explore three databases ACM Digital library, Springer and Science Direct. Besides we also added different synonyms, alterations and relevant terms for each defined keyword. Moreover, the usage of Boolean operator AND and OR allowed us to search combination of different terms.

  • 10. 13 Social media influence Maximizing influence in a competitive social network: a follower's perspective Year:2007 52 This paper propose two models for the spread of influence of competing technologies through a social network and consider the influence maximization problem from the follower's perspective. In particular we assume the follower has a fixed budget available that can be used to target a subset of consumers and show that, although it is NP-hard to select the most influential subset to target, it is possible to give an efficient algorithm that is within 63% of optimal. 14 Social networks Optimal marketing strategies over social networks Year:2013 67 This paper discusses the use of social networks in implementing viral marketing strategies. While influence maximization has been studied in this context (see Chapter 24 of [10]), we study revenue maximization, arguably, a more natural objective. In our model, a buyer's decision to buy an item is influenced by the set of other buyers that own the item and the price at which the item is offered. We focus on algorithmic question of finding revenue maximizing marketing strategies. 15 Social influence Staticgreedy: solving the scalability-accuracy dilemma in influence maximization Year:2013 70 This paper focuses on solving this scalability- accuracy dilemma. We point out that the essential reason of the dilemma is the surprising fact that the submodularity, a key requirement of the objective function for a greedy algorithm to approximate the optimum, is not guaranteed in all conventional greedy algorithms in the literature of influence maximization. 16 Social media influence Efficient influence maximization in social networks Year:2009 55 This paper shows the efficient influence maximization from two complementary directions.

Selection Criteria During the process of literature search, it was a great challenge to review all relevant prior research and thus we conducted review for only selected research papers. But reviewing selected studies generated the risk of overseeing few of significant research. Thus, our major focus was only to recognize the main concerns and identify persuasive research on the title of study. Regarding selection of research papers, we conducted a citation frequency investigation to regulate which research should be included and circulate the basis of purpose statement. The reference indexes of ACM Digital library demonstrated a wide image on which researchers and studies were often referenced by different authors and thus graded based on their indexing frequency. It was observed that Science Direct possessed more reference index in contrasts to Springer and ACM Digital library, as in whole Science Direct has referenced more research papers and different types of publication in comparison to other databases. There is numerous research which offered outstanding outlines of the issues related to the usage of ISI web information as a dataset described in a prior research (Harzing and van der Wal, 2008). Subsequently the search consequences obtained from different database sources a cluster of inclusion and exclusion conditions were applied to facilitate in the recognition of related primary research. Thus, inclusion condition is utilized to choose primary research which shows relevant data analysis procedure, determination and interaction between followers and influences in social media network. Whereas for exclusion condition they are utilized to eradicate primary research which do not focuses on main title researched in the above background context, are unavailable and directly relevant to an existing research of the similar researcher. Inclusion Condition:  Research which shows similarity in at least one of the researched terms.  Research that possesses best practices forms.  Studies that are relevant to social media networks relevant to data science.  Studies that are relevant to the concept of effect in social media network.  Studies which are relevant to research queries. Exclusion Condition

Conclusion The existing literature search report pursued to constitute in the recognition of end-users relevant to data science analytics procedures along with to show the main purpose of analysis and the areas that were highly impacted by the influence of social media networks. This report entailed literature reviews published between 2000 to 2020 era. The outcomes of the review were four data representation models, ten data analytics procedure and six major perspectives behind social media networks relevant to data analytics and around twenty area were observed. The selected research papers demonstrated that Graphs are regarded as the most utilized procedure for data representation model. The major purpose of this literature search report is to demonstrate the usage of different tactics of data science to investigate impact of social media while considering the interaction between influences and their followers. The major objective of this study was to investigate different primary researches relevant to role of data science is social media networks the given research queries were generated. 1. Which procedures have been cast-off to investigate users associated data in social media? 2. What is
  • 27. the aim of investigating users associated data in social media?3. How is it probable to practise investigating methods while considering interactions between followers and influencers? The main perspective was to analyze the interaction and user’s coordination. The topmost inter-related areas with social media networks found were Computer Science, Business and Sociology. For future study, it is recommended to generate a data mining strategy to find the interaction between users and influences with the help of Graph. Moreover, graph matching and transformation procedures can also be implemented on the interaction framework utilizing Graph Matching and Transformation Engine (GMTE) for analysis. Although, the research was cautiously performed but we have to confess few limitations. Because of huge number of studies, it was not probable to sought the whole literature. The list of research papers in this sector is not a complete list. Additionally, due to increment in the number of studies, research in same area may be in process. Another major limitation is that some research papers and articles were not directly accessible through internet. Consequently, the influence of social media networks and the usage of data science for data analytics are evolving interdisciplinary study disciplines. Area of research such as data security and protection, legal challenges and ethics can be determined and studied under numerous aspects in the upcoming years.
