The importance of knowledge creation and sharing are well understood in the knowledge society. Academicians and researchers across the world sweat for making a better world; conduct research, attempt for quality publications, meet other scholars at research forums to share knowledge, etc. Yet factors are hindering the target. Over the decades, it had been observed that a large number of published research articles are erroneous due to a lack of knowledge in quantitative research. Institute of Mathematics and Management(IMM) determined to fill the knowledge gap; take initiative to conduct the conference along with the "Workshop in Data Analytics".
