[ontolog-forum] Getting The Dirt On Big Data

[Kingsley Idehen <kidehen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

Here's an article [1] by Jim Hendler and Karen Waterman that I believe many on this list will find interesting.

An interesting excerpt:

" A 2010 survey by Forbes of more than 200 global enterprises revealed that more than a third believed they were losing more than $10 million per year because of bad data. In 2011, an industry executive produced a rough estimate that U.S. business losses due to bad data were now *$3 trillion* per year, more than double the federal deficit for that year. "
