Abstract

We are living in an era of ‘Big Data ’. That is to say data sets so large, complex and rapidly generating that they cannot be processed by traditional information and communications technologies. In 2012, the USA announced the National Big Data Research and Development Initiative to address the challenge and opportunity of ‘Big Data’. In the UK, the Big Data Institute at the Li Ka Shing Centre for Health Information and Discovery was launched by Prime Minister David Cameron in May 2013.
