Cost minimization is an emergent challenge.
“Researchers assert that cost minimization is an emergent challenge (Irani, Ghoneim, & Love, 2006;Irani, 2010), with Gu et al., 2015 explaining the challenges of processing BD across geo-distributed data centers.”
From Critical analysis of Big Data challenges and analytical methods (2017) · cites this paper as Irani, Ghoneim, & Love, 2006
The Introduction describes rising IS costs and the difficulty of identifying and evaluating them; the Conclusions say organizations increasingly seek to manage technology costs. This supports cost reduction as a growing challenge in IS management, but the paper does not establish the broader claim that cost minimization generally is an emergent challenge. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
