...network. The result is big data that provides very detailed views of large systems in flux. Given that most big data are spatially and temporally referenced this enables sophisticated geographical modelling . The challenge of big data is not simply volume, but also variety and velocity; to deal with huge, diverse, complex, dynamic data...

...data The situation whereby organizations (business and non-business) own or have access to such immense volumes of data in both structured and unstructured formats that standard computer applications for processing databases are inadequate. The problem for organizations may be exacerbated not only by the volumes involved, but also by the speed with which the information moves or accumulates, thus outstripping processing...

big data Quick reference
A Dictionary of Marketing (4 ed.)
...data The proliferation and storage of data from multiple sources on such a vast and complex scale that it cannot be processed or analysed with traditional tools such as relational databases. Data can come from embedded sensors and digital sources: it may be structured (for example, on a database) or unstructured (for example, machine-generated, digital media, mobile devices, online publications, and social media). The era of big data is predicted to have many profound impacts on the practice of marketing, notably the use of empirical data to guide and measure...

Encyclopedia of Macro Social Work
...dashboards, and reports. Big Data The social work field can leverage data science to aspire to new standards for quality performance at the macro level. One of the important concepts nowadays in data science is “big data.” The term “big data” made its academic debut in a 1988 computer science paper and first emerged in the information technology industry in the mid-1990s. Since the turn of the 21st century , the term “big data” has become extremely popular. While there is disagreement in academia about how to define “big data,” the most common definitions...

...about the ethical, legal, and social implications of big data, as opposed to big data in academic research (though the two sometimes intersect); an overview of these can be found in Pasquale ( 2015 ) . Acknowledgments Thank you for the helpful comments from Cornelius Puschmann. Further Reading Those interested in big data in communication research may wish to obtain overviews, also in relation to particular data sources (see “ Discussion of the Literature ”). Apart from this, publications about big data in communication research are quite disparate, and...

...information to the right member of the care team (including the patient), at the right time and in the right format, to improve workflow and decision making. Both sides of this story merit discussion. Using Big Data to Enhance Health Communication Research The Evolution of Big Data in Science All this new dependency on data, and especially on big data, may seem like an abrupt change from business as usual in risk communication, but in fact it represents a natural tipping point from a trend that began decades earlier. Its origins can easily be traced to the...

Text Corpora and Lexical Morphology: A Tight Relationship Corpus linguistics investigates language by studying collections of samples of language usage, namely, corpora. Traditionally, the label “corpus” was used to refer to any collection of texts, but since the computer science revolution in the middle of the 20th-century “corpus” has been mostly used to denote an electronic corpus, that is, a collection of texts that has been digitalized (or is in digital format to begin with)...
