Subject: [CNI-ANNOUNCE] Administration "Big Data" Research and Development
Program and Event

The Obama Administration is holding an event at 2-3:30PM Eastern to 
announce the rollout of a major new multi-agency research and 
development program based on "big data". The event will be streamed at

(I don't know if it will be archived for later replay)


There are a fact sheet and a press release at the OSTP site,

The fact sheet has links to agency specific sites for more details.

Among the press coverage, see today's New York Times.

panel at today's session.)
