*** *ABOUT ****

The Italian Conference on Big Data and Data Science (ITADATA2024), at its
third edition, is the annual event supported by the CINI Data Science National
Laboratory that aims to put together Italian researchers and professionals
from academia, industry, government, and public administration working in
the field of big data and data science, as well as related fields (e.g.,
security and privacy, HPC, Cloud). This year the conference is supported
also by SoBigData RI (https://urldefense.us/v3/__http://www.sobigdata.eu__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!dx8EQueI356cAPkufCKU_4-S3xX1E23BzPAc6lWGb4dOlRTegzPLX8DoXNiMoE2ca3oGPFy2viKti6xpQAr4kBwU$ ) which is a multi-disciplinary
European research infrastructure aimed at using social mining and big data
to understand the complexity of society. The conference will be structured
into a main research track on big data and data science and complemented
with tutorials/demos on specific solutions and prototypes developed by
industries, research centers and universities, and thematic workshops on
specific verticals of big data and data science. The conference will also
feature selected distinguished keynote speeches and some panels.

ITADATA2024 aims to discuss and shape the future of Big Data and Data
Science in Italy and abroad, considering the multidisciplinary, complex,
heterogeneous, and data-centric environment in which modern distributed
systems are operating. The ability to timely manage and analyze large
amounts of data, and to guarantee low-latency access to the data themselves
increasingly become critical requirements and are at the heart of modern
business processes. In this context, data science, as the foundation of
today's data-driven society, plays the role of developing and defining all
the technologies needed to support construction of value on data in
multidisciplinary areas at increasing complexity. ITADATA2024 covers
theoretical and practical research and application pertaining to data, from
data governance to data processing and analysis. It also covers research
and application in related domains where data and data science technologies
are key, such as cloud, edge and IoT, intelligent and high-performance
computing,
blockchain, security and privacy, assurance and certification. It finally
considers and analyzes the evolution of big data and data science at EU and
national level, trying to map current activities in the context of data
spaces and relevant organizations/associations such as, for instance, the
Big Data Value Association (BDVA), as well as policy development, laws, and
regulations.
