<p>Big Data refers to the rising flood of digital data from
many different sources. “Immense” and “diverse” are two
important characteristics of the “Big Data.” Coping with
the expanding variety of the Big Data requires a radical
change in the philosophy of the organization of information
processing. The Big Data approach has to modify the underlying
computational model in order to manage the uncertainty in
the access to information items in a huge nebulous environment.
In this talk, we introduce a novel method for on-the-fly
clusterization of amorphous data from diverse sources. It
is especially suitable for the Big Data computational model
as it materializes the requirement of purposeful selection
of information items in unsteady framework of cloud computing
and stream processing. Furthermore, the uncertainties in
relation to the considered method of clusterization are
moderated due to the idea of the bounded rationality, an
approach that does not require a complete exact knowledge
for sensible decision-making. <em>

<a href='http://www.com-geo.org/conferences/2012/index.htm'>What's
Inside the COM.Geo 2012 Conference Highlights?</a></p>
<p>COM.Geo 2012 conference highlights are Big Data Computing, GPU
Computing, Sensor Computing/Internet of Things (IoT) for Geospatial
R&A. What's inside them? What's the relationships between them?
What's behind all these 'Computing' technologies? How to integrate
them to solve the real geospatial problems?</p>
<p>Let's reveal these at COM.Geo 2012 through our leading industrial,
governmental, and academic experts' insightful thoughts and inspiring
discussions in their keynote speeches, paper presentations, lightning
talks, panel discussions, and workshops or courses.</p>

<span class='auto-style5'>Invite to Join COM.Geo2012 Hot Panels
on Big Data Computing </span></a></p>
<p>COM.Geo is organizing several interesting panels related to Big
Data Computing:<br />
<br />
1) Mobile Computing & Big Data Computing<br />
2) Cloud Computing & Big Data Computing<br />
3) GPU/GPGPU Computing & Big Data Computing<br />
4) Sensor Computing / Internet of Things (IoT) & Big Data Computing<br />
5) Big Data Computing for Defense<br />
<br />
COM.Geo invites individuals to apply to become panel moderators (organizers) or panelists (members).
Applications should
be completed
<a href='../conferences/2012/call_for_submission_panels_form.php'>online</a> by <strong>May 15. </strong></p>

Early Registration Deadline - May 14</a></p>
<p>The COM.Geo 2012 early registration deadline is May 14th. The
fee structure for COM.Geo 2012 makes it even more advantageous to
register early this year. Registering early can save you up to $200
off your conference program registration (depending on your registration
category). </p>
