TERATEC Forum 2012
Workshop 5 - Thursday, June 28, 2012, 14:00-17:30
Data Deluge(s)

Chairman : Jean-Philippe NOMINE, CEA

Scientists and engineers have long been producing and using big datasets, be there numerical simulation results, observed or measured data, or digital models. These data have been tremendously growing in volume while their distribution and circulation on networks has been exacerbated.

But we are now also surrounded and overwhelmed by massive flow of business, administrative, financial, multimedia, social network data, as well as data related to sensor networks or mobile objects. Be there public or private, creating meaning and value from these data deluges will require radical improvement and new approaches for their storage, processing, analysis and exploitation.

In this session leading observers and players of these “big data” phenomena will share their vision and give us food for thought through a diversity of applications and approaches.
