Intel "Big Data" Science And Technology Center Vision And Execution Plan

Intel has moved to a collaboration model with universities consisting of "Science and Technology Centers" (ISTCs). These are located at a "hub" university with participation from other universities, contain embedded Intel personnel, and are focused on some research theme. Intel held a national competition for a 5th Science and Technology center in 2012 and selected a proposal from M.I.T. with a theme of "Big Data". This paper presents the big data vision of this technology center and the execution plan for the first few years.
