Abstract:
    The Big Data of the future will be generated by Internet of Things (IoT) i.e., "things" connected to the Internet. IoT may be simplified as: "Sensors/RFID devices + Communications". Billions of "things" such as sensors/RFID, mobility devices & smart phones are generating mountains of data on all aspects of the human life: health, environment, transportations, security, shopping, smart cities, smart grids, home, etc. The Biggest Challenge of the current Big Data Era is management and mining of ever-increasing streams of data generated by these devices. "Without stream processing, there's no Big Data and no Internet of Things", (Dana Sandu, March 19, 2014).
    This lecture will cover Big Data Analytics methodologies applicable to Static Data as well as Streaming IoT/M2M data. Topics include: an end-to-end framework for data mining; well-known analytical methodologies, techniques, algorithms, and models developed and successfully applied to the Static data over the last 15+ years; an overview of IoT architecture; the stream data model; data streams quality; and most recent & emerging techniques invented for Stream Data Analytics. Practical as well theoretical basis of algorithms will be covered. Many real world applications will be presented. Future research directions and opportunities for real-time large scale IoT/M2M Big Data Streams Analytics are suggested.
