SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Overview: The growth in scale,
diversity, and complexity of data has
increased the demand for understanding
large amounts of heterogeneous data.
This presents new challenges to the way
data and information are used and
managed. A need exists to understand
ways to design systems for processing
big data, develop sophisticated analytics
using large-scale data, consider privacy
issues arising from use of this massive
data, and determine ways to teach big
data analytics across disciplines. This
workshop will bring together academic
and industry leaders across disciplines
to further inform the development of an
effective Federal Big Data Research
Agenda.
Background: Given the large number
of overlapping data challenges many
federal agencies are facing, a National
Big Data R&D Initiative was launched in
March 2012. As part of this Initiative, a
Federal Big Data Research Agenda is
under development. This workshop is
part of the process to collect input from
those in academia and industry that are
working on big data research and new
technologies.
The purpose of drafting a Federal Big
Data Research Agenda is to assist
Federal Agencies in planning their
individual Big Data R&D programs and
initiatives. The Agenda is expected to be
released in late 2015.
Submitted by the National Science
Foundation for the National Coordination
Office (NCO) for Networking and Information
Technology Research and Development
(NITRD) on January 22, 2015.
