F. Moura<\/a>, co-founder of the IEEE Big Data Initiative, <a href=\"https:\/\/bigdata.ieee.org\/publications\/ieee-talks-big-data\/22-ieee-talks-big-data-belanger-moura\">said that<\/a> &#8220;It goes without saying that medical and health are areas where the availability of data has led to the development of new tools and technologies to analyze it all. Another area is the process industry, such as manufacturing and its instrumentation of factories and plants with lots of sensors. A lot of data is being processed to better manage industrial manufacturing processes. Another area is urban science, where big data can be used to make cities more liveable from an environmental, sustainability, and traffic or flows point of view. &#8220;<\/p>\n<div
