The Federal Big Data Research and Development Strategic Plan
This document was developed through the contributions of the NITRD Big Data SSG members and staff. A special thanks and appreciation to the core team of editors, writers, and reviewers: Lida Beninson (NSF), Quincy Brown (NSF), Elizabeth Burrows (NSF), Dana Hunter (NSF), Craig Jolley (USAID), Meredith Lee (DHS), Nishal Mohan (NSF), Chloe Poston (NSF), Renata Rawlings-Goss (NSF), Carly Robinson (DOE Science), Alejandro Suarez (NSF), Martin Wiener (NSF), and Fen Zhao (NSF).
A national Big Data1 innovation ecosystem is essential to enabling knowledge discovery from and confident action informed by the vast resource of new and diverse datasets that are rapidly becoming available in nearly every aspect of life. Big Data has the potential to radically improve the lives of all Americans. It is now possible to combine disparate, dynamic, and distributed datasets and enable everything from predicting the future behavior of complex systems to precise medical treatments, smart energy usage, and focused educational curricula. Government agency research and public-private partnerships, together with the education and training of future data scientists, will enable applications that directly benefit society and the economy of the Nation.
To derive the greatest benefits from the many, rich sources of Big Data, the Administration announced a “Big Data Research and Development Initiative” on March 29, 2012.2 Dr. John P. Holdren, Assistant to the President for Science and Technology and Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy, stated that the initiative “promises to transform our ability to use Big Data for scientific discovery, environmental and biomedical research, education, and national security.”
The Federal Big Data Research and Development Strategic Plan (Plan) builds upon the promise and excitement of the myriad applications enabled by Big Data with the objective of guiding Federal agencies as they develop and expand their individual mission-driven programs and investments related to Big Data. The Plan is based on inputs from a series of Federal agency and public activities, and a shared vision: We envision a Big Data innovation ecosystem in which the ability to analyze, extract information from, and make decisions and discoveries based upon large, diverse, and real-time datasets enables new capabilities for Federal agencies and the Nation at large; accelerates the process of scientific discovery and innovation; leads to new fields of research and new areas of inquiry that would otherwise be impossible; educates the next generation of 21st century scientists and engineers; and promotes new economic growth.
The Plan is built around seven strategies that represent key areas of importance for Big Data research and development (R&D). Priorities listed within each strategy highlight the intended outcomes that can be addressed by the missions and research funding of NITRD agencies. These include advancing human understanding in all branches of science, medicine, and security; ensuring the Nation’s continued leadership in research and development; and enhancing the Nation’s ability to address pressing societal and environmental issues facing the Nation and the world through research and development

Executive Information System and Data Warehouse
Hal terpenting dalam suatu data warehouse adalah bahwa data warehouse tersebut dapat memuat semua informasi bisnis yang diperlukan oleh para penggunanya dengan akses yang cepat dan dapat diintegrasikan secara mudah dengan sistem yang lainnya. Sebelum merencanakan pembuatan suatu data warehouse, maka akan sangat diperlukan suatu konsep yang tepat dalam pembuatannya. Konsep tersebut akan memuat banyak hal, diantaranya adalah: operasionalisasi database, para pengguna, proses koneksinya, metadata, dan lain sebagainya. Adapun executive information system (EIS) sendiri adalah suatu sistem informasi yang berdasarkan pada penggunaan data warehouse sebagai landasan dasar untuk sistem informasi manajerialnya. EIS ini sendiri dalam prakteknya sangat membantu pihak manajemen tingkat atas dalam penganalisaan data melalui pengaksesan data warehouse
Data Aggregation and Information Loss
Analysts often use a single average or otherwise aggregated price series to represent several geographic or product markets even when disaggregate data are available. We hypothesize that such an approach may not be appropriate under some circumstances, such as when only long-term relationships hold among price series or when homogeneous but relatively perishable products are considered. This question is of particular relevance in agriculture because of seasonality in production and harvest across various production regions, and the effect of changes in demand as substitute crops become available. We analyze this question in the context of fresh strawberry production. We find that in the case of the strawberry market, aggregate series are appropriate for long-term decision analysis, but some information loss occurs when conducting short-term decision analysis.strawberry, price, cointegration, Granger causality, average price, Research Methods/ Statistical Methods,
Point Information Gain and Multidimensional Data Analysis
We generalize the Point information gain (PIG) and derived quantities, i.e.
Point information entropy (PIE) and Point information entropy density (PIED),
for the case of R\'enyi entropy and simulate the behavior of PIG for typical
distributions. We also use these methods for the analysis of multidimensional
datasets. We demonstrate the main properties of PIE/PIED spectra for the real
data on the example of several images, and discuss possible further utilization
in other fields of data processing.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figure
Thermophysical property data and safety information
Precision measurements of the properties of oxygen over a wide range of temperature and pressure are complete. The primary remaining effort, which is in progress, is the representation of these data in the most usable format such as tables, equations, diagrams, and computer programs. In addition, safety data are essential to proper design, operation, and failure analysis. All of the available information on oxygen safety is being reviewed, evaluated and indexed for quick retrieval through the NASA Aerospace Safety Research and Data Institute program. The availability of data, where the major gaps in data occur, and retrieval of bibliographic information are discussed
