Data maintenance, a big challenge: S’pore Prof
Highlights
A huge amount of data, which is generated by new projects like ‘Digital India’ and ‘Smart Cities’, would pose a major challenge to the country if not properly tackled, said Electronics and Communication experts in a international conference on ‘Micro Electronics, Electromagnetics and Telecommunications (ICMEET-2015)’ at GITAM University here on Friday.
Visakhapatnam: A huge amount of data, which is generated by new projects like ‘Digital India’ and ‘Smart Cities’, would pose a major challenge to the country if not properly tackled, said Electronics and Communication experts in a international conference on ‘Micro Electronics, Electromagnetics and Telecommunications (ICMEET-2015)’ at GITAM University here on Friday.
Delivering a keynote address, Dr Lipo Wang of the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, spoke on big data problems associated with a large number of interconnected computing devices. He suggested that the concept of data mining is helpful to handle such large accumulation of data, which, according to the current statistics, is to the tune of petabytes (that’s around 1,015 bytes) in its entirety, per day.
He observed that methods inspired by human thinking and nature inspired techniques shall along be capable of solving problems associated with storage, searching and maintenance of data generated by a large number of electronic devices.
Wang revealed that they are developing techniques basing on genetic algorithms and neural networks for data mining.
Dr Vignesh Rajamani, Vice-President of IEEE Electromagnetic Compatibility Society, from Oklahoma University, USA, said that for any city thriving towards achieving the ‘Smart’ status need well connected devices with efficient exchange of data between them, thereby making the earlier unimaginable concepts like the Internet of Things (IoT) possible. GITAM University Pro Vice-Chancellor Dr D Harinarayana spoke about the economic impact of telecom industry which he said was about four per cent of the entire GDP of the world. The conference convener Dr PVY Jayasree said that there were over 250 entries, from which 73 papers, were selected for publication in the Springer journal, after scrupulous review process.
