ADBIS Special session on Big Data: New Trends and Applications
(BiDaTA 2013)
Sept. 1st 2013, Genoa, Italy
website: http://dbdmg.polito.it/bidata2013/

In conjunction with the 17th East-European Conference on Advances in
Databases and Information Systems (ADBIS 2013)
September 1-4, 2013, Genoa, Italy


SESSION OVERVIEW

Large volumes of data (Big Data) are being produced by various modern applications at an ever increasing rate. These applications range from wireless sensors networks (e.g., climate/weather monitoring, intelligent mobility, water metering) to social networks and e-commerce applications. Innovative data models, algorithms, and architectures have to be designed to deal with the Big Data four V-dimensions, namely Volume, Velocity, Variety, and Veracity. These new paradigms of software and hardware design should efficiently store, manage, and analyze such huge data volumes, providing the necessary scalability and flexibility for novel big data analytics applications. These challenges have been attracting great attention from both academia and industry.
This session will provide a forum for researchers, professionals, and practitioners in the industry sectors to discuss the research issues and share new ideas and techniques for big data management and analysis/analytics. We welcome research papers, application papers, and papers on experience reports on various aspects of big data.
