Scientific breakthroughs are being increasingly powered by advanced computing capabilities that help researchers manipulate and explore massive datasets. The speed at which any given scientific discipline advances will depend on how well its researchers collaborate with one another, and with technologists, in areas such as databases, workflow management, visualization, and cloud computing technologies. Crunching big data has become imperative and provides competitive advantage to business entities in all industrial verticals. However, it requires addressing technical challenges across multiple dimensions. Smarter Planet typically involves processing data from several sources with multiple modalities such as structured and unstructured data, text, visual and in other formats. Real time processing of large volumes of fast flowing data while simultaneously handling uncertainty is a challenging problem. This requires the academic and industry community to work synchronously in addressing the issues. The workshop will focus on ideas, thoughts and research papers that will elicit the technical challenges in “enabling and providing” big data analytics. It aims to provide an inter-disciplinary platform to discuss issues on enabling orchestration and utilization of Big data to provide “Intelligence” on demand to both the consumers and the enterprises. The workshop comprise a keynote talk by a distinguished researcher in the area of Big Data Analytics and Smarter Planet, followed by presentations of selected technical papers, and a tutorial from a distinguished practitioner. A list of topics for paper submissions to this workshop are mentioned below. Submission of position papers, work in progress, research papers, applied research in specific Smarter Planet domains; experiments with real world Smarter Planet applications, challenges in adopting various technologies to enable enterprise analytical solutions are welcome. Greater preference would be given to papers at the intersection of Smarter Planet and Big Data.
