Application of BI-analytics in the management of a scientific journal
https://doi.org/10.24069/SEP-22-11
Abstract
The results of applying the Power BI free software in the management of a scientific journal are presented. It is shown that even the creation of the most basic dashboard allows management solutions aimed at improving the editorial work to be obtained. Data on the manuscript flow for the past several years can be used as input to Power BI to make informed decisions about future trends. All available free forecasting techniques in Power BI are compared in terms of forecast accuracy. The Power BI force-directed graph plugin for establishing connections between reviewers is analysed. On this basis, recommendations to scientific editors concerning the selection of reviewers and the development of a scientific journal are provided. This research is focused on the search for simple solutions that can be applied by the editorial team without acquiring specific knowledge in the field of Data Science.
