Episode 13 - Part 1: Q&A with Dr. David Belanger, chair of the IEEE Big Data Initiative; and Kathy Grise, program director for the IEEE Big Data Initiative
Big Data isn't what it was 10 years ago. We're starting to see its evolution, as it permeates all industries and influences how businesses make decisions. And Big Data can be different things industry by industry. For professional sports, teams are wanting more insight on player performance and game location. For electric utilities, companies are gathering data associated with outages to help better serve customers. As our 13th episode of the IEEE Big Data Podcast, this is part one of a two-part series--both Dr. Belanger and Ms. Grise offer their perspectives on the "why" behind Big Data and how that influences where it is today. And as you'll hear in this unique podcast, both industry experts offer perspectives that can help businesses steer their Big Data priorities into new and profitable directions.

Episode 12 - Part 1: Q&A with Professor Sorel Reisman, chair of the Standing Committee for IEEE COMPSAC; and Professor Sheikh Iqbal Ahamed, chair of the COMPSAC Steering Committee
During IEEE COMPSAC 2017 in Turin, Italy, Professor Sorel Reisman and Professor Sheikh Iqbal Ahamed jointly discussed global disruptive technologies today and in the future and which among them will have the greatest impact—all for the IEEE Big Data Podcast, in a two-part series. Both are Big Data experts and provide a very unique perspective on some of Big Data’s impact on current and future tech, along with key considerations. And of course both met the challenge by not only delivering the Big Data element to COMPSAC 2017 but also for this podcast interview. Even better, having both in the same room to provide this podcast's rare recorded commentary was a treat. Give this episode a listen as you pay close attention to what Dr. Reisman and Dr. Ahamed have to say about the impacts of Big Data and more!

Episode 11: Q&A with Dr. K. J. Ray Liu, the lead for IEEE DataPort™, IEEE Division IX Director, and Christine Kim Eminent Professor of Information Technology at University of Maryland
IEEE has launched a one-of-a-kind online resource called IEEE DataPort™ designed to make storage of datasets easier, provide access to valuable datasets across a broad scope of topics, facilitate analysis of datasets, and retain referenceable data for reproducible research. This podcast episode features Dr. K. J. Ray Liu--the lead for IEEE DataPort. As a new industry resource, IEEE DataPort is an easily accessible repository of datasets, including Big Data datasets and data analysis tools. As the key takeaway in this podcast, Dr. Liu’s message is to invite industry participation by supplying IEEE DataPort™ with valuable datasets that can be analyzed to advance technology.
