Welcome to the Winter 2012 issue of Data Points, produced by Georgia Tech’s Institute for Data and High Performance Computing. In this issue read about research that identifies “insider threats” from massive data sets, research to fight cancer through algorithms, collaborations on machine learning methods for medical imagery and efforts to advance ubiquitous high performance computing.
IDH Director Richard Fujimoto discusses a new national agenda in Modeling and Simulation and its importance to the economy and education. Georgia Tech is also leading initiatives in Big Data, as evidenced by the annual meeting for the Foundations of Data and Visual Analytics project.
