The 1st International Workshop on Big Data Processing (BigDP 2014)

affiliated with 8th International Symposium on Intelligent Distributed Computing (http://aida.ii.uam.es/IDC2014/)

3-5 September 2014

Madrid, SPAIN

Workshop motivation

Now, we are facing “Big Data”, which is a new information overloading problem, in many different areas. Such areas are including health cares (e.g., medical records, bioinformatics), e-sciences (e.g., physics, chemistry, and geology), and social sciences (e.g., politics). Thus, as we have various types of feasible data from a number of available sources, it is becoming increasingly more difficult to efficiently process such Big Data.

Distributed computing technologies (e.g., Hadoop, Hive and Pig) are strongly related to the “Big Data” issues. Given a very large scale “Big Data,” efficient distributed data processing and management remain a challenge in many research areas, for example, information acquisition and stream processing, as well as data integration. Also, the number of diverse information processing system architectures might be involved in these areas. They need to exploit relevant solutions to support a number of intelligent services (e.g., knowledge management and decision making).

The aim of this worshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners in areas of distributed computing to share their visions, research achievements and solutions, to resolve the issues on big data processing and to establish worldwide cooperative research and development. This will give an opportunity to push further the discussion upon the potential of knowledge and semantic systems across many communities.
