The Future Fabric of Data Analysis
- thinkerer 12y agoExcellent article, I agree with the author. Most times, it isnt really about how much calculations you make because the permutations and combinations are almost infinite and one could never yield anything useful with the current state of computing. Data and their relationships are really the key.
- pwang 12y agoA few of the people mentioned in the article are being funded by DARPA to create open source, next-gen "big data" tools as part of its XDATA program: http://www.darpa.mil/OpenCatalog/XDATA.html http://www.darpa.mil/OpenCatalog/XDATA.html
- kfk 12y agoIt's completely OT, but as a financial controller I always say this: we are facing issues also in "small data". Some problems are similar to those described in the article, especially regarding integrating different structured datasets. And we all know how small data is handled, still in 2014: lots and lots of hours on spreadsheets and then on power points.
