Big Data, Driving Decisions: Use Cases, Technology and Economics

Big Data driving decisions with direct impact on the real-world: this is the deep transformation ahead of us.
With billions of humans connected through mobile and fixed networks, the challenge is now shifting to connecting things in a meaningful way. This is what Big Data, enabled by Machine to Machine connectivity, is all about:
-making sense of all bits of knowledge acquired in real time, digested, processed, retrieved, understood through Analytics.
-building a decision and action process, based on the result of this analysis.
-feeding back to the real-world commands or actions.

This book will take you through use cases, technologies, economics of big data, with a review of policy and regulation which comes into play at the cross-roads of society and business, individuals, organisations, and government.
