Big Data affects us all
Big Data - the generation, linking and evaluation of large amounts of data - affects almost all areas of life in our modern, digitized society. Network computing, smartphones, social networks, diverse online offers and the penetration of everyday life with the Internet of Things lead to a rapid multiplication of data sources and data volumes.
Focusing on social aspects
In addition to the potentials of Big Data, e.g. in the areas of business or medicine, social challenges are becoming increasingly apparent. In particular, there are questions about commercial and governmental surveillance, privacy protection, transparency as well as errors in data use or automated decisions.
This is where ABIDA comes in
As an interdisciplinary research project, ABIDA endeavours to resolve the tension between the realization of innovation potentials on the one hand, and the preservation of individual and social values on the other.
