Hi all--

 

Thought you might be interested in the Big Data webinar tomorrow from the
White House.  "Researchers in a growing number of fields are generating
extremely large and complicated data sets, commonly referred to as "big
data." A wealth of information may be found within these sets, with enormous
potential to shed light on some of the toughest and most pressing challenges
facing the nation. To capitalize on this unprecedented opportunity-to
extract insights, discover new patterns and make new connections across
disciplines-we need better tools to access, store, search, visualize, and
analyze these data."

 

Thursday, March 28 from 2-3:30 pm EST (see attached for details)

 

Thanks to Ernie Lucier for forwarding.
