Data Science and Systems 2016
2nd IEEE International Conference DSS2016
In parallel with petrol as a driving resource in this world, data is becoming an increasingly decisive resource in modern societies, economies, and governmental organizations. Gradually and steadily, it is being world-wide recognised that data and talents are playing key roles in modern businesses.
As an interdisciplinary area, data science draws scientific inquiry from a broad range of subject areas such as statistics, mathematics, computer science, machine learning, optimization, signal processing, information retrieval, databases, cloud computing, computer vision, natural language processing and etc. data science is on the essence of deriving valuable insights from data. It is emerging to meet the challenges of processing very large datasets, i.e. big data, with the explosion of new data continuously generated from various channels such as smart devices, web, mobile and social media.
Data systems are posing many challenges in exploiting parallelism of current and upcoming computer architectures. Data volumes of applications in the fields of sciences and engineering, finance, media, online information resources, etc. are expected to double every two years over the next decade and further. With this continuing data explosion, it is necessary to store and process data efficiently by utilizing enormous computing power. The importance of data intensive systems has been raising and will continue to be the foremost fields of research. This raise brings up many research issues, in forms of capturing and accessing data effectively and fast, processing it while still achieving high performance and high throughput, and storing it efficiently for future use. Innovative programming models, high performance scalable computing platforms, efficient storage systems and expression of data requirements are at immediate need.
DSS (Data Science and Systems) was created to provide a prime international forum for researchers, industry practitioners and domain experts to exchange the latest advances in data science and data systems as well as their synergy. 2016 is the 2nd event following the success in 2015 (DSDIS2015).
