Supporting Big Data Research at the University of California, Berkeley: An Ithaka S+R Local Report
Abstract
Based on interviews with big data researchers at UC Berkeley as part of an Ithaka S+R project, this local report provides insights on researcher practices and challenges in six thematic areas: data collection & processing; analysis: methods, tools, infrastructure; research outputs; collaboration; training; and balancing domain vs data science expertise. The report makes several recommendations based on these findings. A summary post with the recommendations is available at https://update.lib.berkeley.edu/2021/10/04/big-data-as-a-way-of-life/.
