How to Design an Interactive System for Data Science: Learning from a Literature Review

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
Advances in Information Systems Development

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Information Systems and Organisation ((LNISO,volume 34))

Abstract

As part of an ongoing design science research project, this paper presents a systematic literature review and the classification of 214 papers scoping the work on Data Science (DS) in the fields of Information Systems and Human-Computer Interaction. The overall search was conducted on Web of Science, Science Direct and ACM Digital Library, for papers about the design of IT artefacts for Data Science, over the period of 1997 until 2017. The work identifies promising research clusters in the crossroads of IS, HCI and Design, but few studies were found with concrete guidance on how to design a system for DS, when targeting for broader technical and business user profiles and multi-domain applications. In this paper, we propose a DS lifecycle process and a set of design principles to guide the design of such a system to support the whole creative DS lifecycle process.

A prior version of this paper has been published in the ISD2018 Proceedings (http://aisel.aisnet.org/isd2014/proceedings2018).
