This looks an extremely interesting event and is the culmination of concerted work at NIST.  It will doubtless be of interest to those members of the CODATA International Community based in the US.  Those based elsewhere in the world, will I’m sure be interested in the outcomes.

With very best wishes,

Simon.

> 2nd NIST Big Data Interoperability Framework Workshop:
> Standard Ecosystem for Big Data Applications and Analytics
> Gaithersburg, Maryland
> June 1-2, 2017
>  
> NIST will host its 2nd NIST Big Data Public Working Group (NBD-PWG) workshop for NIST Big Data Interoperability Framework (NBDIF) with the theme of Towards a Standard Ecosystem for Big Data Applications and Analytics on June 1-2, 2017 at NIST, Gaithersburg, Maryland.
>  
> The NBD-PWG was established together with the industry, academia and government to create a consensus-based extensible NIST Big Data Interoperability Framework (NBDIF) which is a vendor-neutral, technology- and infrastructure-independent ecosystem. It can enable Big Data stakeholders (e.g. data scientists, researchers, etc.) to utilize the best available analytics tools to process and derive knowledge through the use of standard interfaces between swappable architectural components.
>  
> Workshop Objectives
> The workshop program will focus on four major areas: (a) NBDIF Version 2 Overview – consensus approach to establish interoperable ecosystem for Big Data applications and analytics, (b) Big Data application challenges – how standard ecosystem may overcome Big Data applications development challenges from major government programs and initiatives, (c) Big Data analytics challenges – how standard ecosystem may provide reusable, deployable, and operational analytics tools from major government chief data scientists/officers, and (d) Explore Exascale Big Data Analytics and Systems.
>  
> NBDIF Version 2 Draft Documents are available at: https://bigdatawg.nist.gov <https://bigdatawg.nist.gov/>
