Big Data

Big Data News, Trends, Insights & Events

Large, varied sets of structured and unstructured data, also known as big data, and the analytics surrounding that data continue to transform the way we do business and experience the world. Advancements in technology fuel emerging big data analytics, which allow us to engage in predictive analytics to uncover trends, unexpected correlations, and hidden patterns so that we can then use those actionable insights to make data-driven decisions.

The IEEE Communications Society creates and aggregates information about various global endeavors working to solve the challenges associated with Big Data. Volunteers on our committees and IEEE ComSoc-led initiatives can learn about and collaborate on technologies that help enhance businesses and societies by identifying new markets, improving customer experiences, enhancing business processes, monitoring healthcare and security, and creating smart cities.

IEEE Big Data Initiative

IEEE ComSoc is excited to be a participating Society in, and have members on the steering committee of, the IEEE Big Data Initiative. The Initiative strives to aggregate information about the various endeavors occurring worldwide in order to provide a community of professionals in industry, academia, and government working to solve the challenges associated with Big Data.

IEEE International Workshop on Computer Aided Modeling and Design of Communication Links and Networks 2024

IEEE CAMAD 2024 - IEEE International Workshop on Computer Aided Modeling and Design of Communication Links and Networks - The International Workshop on Computer-Aided Modeling Analysis and Design of Communication Links and Networks (CAMAD) provides a forum for discussion of recent developments on analytical and simulation tools and techniques for the performance evaluation of communications systems. It was launched in 1986, being held every 2 years until 2006, often in cooperation with flagship IEEE Communication Society conferences (Int. Conference on Communications – ICC, Global Telecommunication Conference – GLOBECOM). Since 2006, the workshop has been held once every year motivated by the ever-increasing interest in this hot research and development field with last venues organized in Trento (CAMAD‘06) and Pisa (CAMAD‘09) as a stand-alone event, in conjunction with IEEE PIMRC 2007 in Athens, Greece (CAMAD‘07) and co-located with the ICC 2008 in Beijing, China. Since 2009, CAMAD is an IEEE Communications Society portfolio event and hosts Workshops and Special Sessions, bringing together a diverse group of scientists, engineers, manufacturers and providers to exchange and share their experiences. In addition, the conference will also include keynote speeches, panel and demo sessions. IEEE CAMAD 2024 will be held 21–23 October in Athens, Greece.
