OVERVIEW
The first annual workshop on Methodologies to Improve Data projects (MIDP) will be held in conjunction with IEEE Big Data 2015, to be held in Santa Clara, CA, USA on Oct 29 - Nov 1, 2015.
As data continues to be produced in massive amounts, with increasing volume, velocity and variety, big data projects are growing in frequency and importance. However, the growth in the use of big data has outstripped the knowledge of how to support teams that need to do big data projects. In fact, while much has been written in terms of the use of algorithms that can help generate insightful analysis, much less has been written about methodologies, tools and frameworks that could enable teams to more effectively and efficiently "do" big data projects. The situation is much like the early days of software development: software was being developed but organizations had little ability to predict whether a project would be successful, on time or on budget and projects were overly reliant on the heroic efforts of particular individuals.
CALL FOR PAPERS
In this workshop, we will explore methodologies, tools and frameworks that have been or need to be developed to help support big data projects. Specifically, this workshop will focus on how we can best support effective communication, collaboration and the overall execution by a big data team.
The workshop will provide a venue to explore new ideas in possible methodologies as well case studies that describe examples of what has, or has not, worked within different big data teams. To enable a cross pollination of ideas, the workshop welcomes both academic researchers and industry experts to attend.
We invite early research results and position statements on topics including, but not limited to:
* Methodologies (agile, waterfall, other) for teams doing a Big Data project
* Tools or frameworks to facilitate collaboration within a Big Data project
* How to evaluate the effectiveness of a data team or their methodologies
* How to ensure the quality of the results of a Big Data project
* Case studies on related topics of interest to this workshop
Paper submissions should be in English and not exceed 9 pages. Accepted papers will be published as part of the IEEE Big Data conference proceedings.
