Improving Research and Education of Big Data and Cloud Computing

Dr. Debzani Deb funded by National Science Foundation

Winston-Salem State University (WSSU)’s RIA project, within the Department of Computer Science, conducts research on resource management of Big Data applications on Cloud infrastructure. In today’s world, the analysis of large amounts of data becomes a high priority task for many companies. Data-driven decision processes now guide many sectors of our economy. This project exposes women, minority, and underrepresented students at WSSU to the big data and cloud computing research that may influence their choice about further education and future careers and therefore increasing the size and diversity of the STEM workforce.
