Massive data analysis is affecting many areas of science, engineering and industry; Discussing new challenges ranging from analyzing meteorological data to modeling traffic patterns to the processing of millions of online clients. To face these challenges, you need to have the training to store, manage, process and analyze data of this magnitude. The complexity of the data requires new powerful analytical techniques designed for this purpose.
