- 9. Research Councils UK and Big Data ▶ „Big data is a term for a collection of datasets so large and complex that it is beyond the ability of typical database software tools to capture, store, manage, and analyse them. „Big‟ is not defined as being larger than a certain number of „bytes‟ because as technology advances over time, the size of datasets that qualify as big data will also increase‟ (RCUK)
- 11. Big Data Network
- 12. Research benefits of new data ▶ Undertaking research on pressing policy-related issues without the need for new data collection • Food consumption, social background and obesity • Energy consumption, housing type and climatic conditions • Rural location, private/public transport alternatives and incomes • School attainment, higher education participation, subject choices, student debt and later incomes ▶ New data such as social media enable us to ask big questions, about big populations, and in real time – this is transformative

- 22. Real life is and must be full of all kinds of social constraint – the very processes from which society arises. Computers can help if we use them to create abstract social machines on the Web: processes in which the people do the creative work and the machine does the administration... The stage is set for an evolutionary growth of new social engines. The ability to create new forms of social process would be given to the world at large, and development would be rapid.

Take homes ▶ There are multiple shifts in scholarship occurring: – Volumes of data and associated automation – Computational infrastructure and realtime analytics – Dataflows vs datasets (and curation infrastructure) – Correlation vs causation – Responsible Innovation – Machine-to-Machine and Internet of Things ▶ Social Machines provide an approach to co- design and analysis in the evolving knowledge infrastructure

Hinweis der Redaktion
- EPSRC: Under ‘Big Data’ we are considering both very large and also complex data, including dynamic and heterogenous data from all the various sources including sensors, social media, industry etc.
- ESRC was allocated 64m and much of this is being used to set up the ESRC Big Data Network. The ESRC’s Big Data Network will support the development of a network of innovative investments which will strengthen the UK’s competitive advantage in Big Data for the social sciences. The core aim of this network is to facilitate access to different types of data and thereby stimulate innovative research and develop new methods to undertake that research. Although you should note that diagram it is only illustrative in terms of how the UKDS and ADS will work across – that is still under discussion; and only illustrative in the number of Business and Local Government Data Research.This network has been divided into three phases. In Phase 1 of the Big Data Network the ESRC has invested in the development of the Administrative Data Research Network (ADRN) which will provide access to de-identified administrative data collected by government departments for research use – focus of this meeting and all your grants.A few words about Phase 2 and 3 before we pass to Vanessa to talk about the ADRN some more. Phase 2is currently bring commissioned and will deal primarily with business data and/ or local government data. Phase 3, further details of which will be released in the last autumn / winter and will focus primarily on third sector data and social media data. It is expected that there will be opportunities for interaction across all elements of the ESRC Big Data Network and that they will all work together around the wider objectives of facilitating access to different forms of data and of ensuring maximum impact is generated from the use of that data for the mutual benefit of data owners and researchers, and through the research facilitated by the Network, benefit society and the economy more generally.
