Biography
is a professor of information management and networks at RSM who says big data is automated decision-making combining big amounts of distributed, often poorly aligned and non-authenticated data from many sources. He sees the Internet of Things as presenting a set of technological, business and societal challenges. Peter’s contribution to the development and creation of open information systems dates back to the publication of Electronic Mail and Message Handling in 1985, a landmark publication for developing global communications networks such as the internet. His focus on smart networks resulted in the publication of two books in 2005 and 2009.
