CSC 571 Big Data Programming

The era of big data has brought new challenges for programmers to tackle. This course begins with a survey of techniques used by data scientists to handle the volume, speed, variety and uncertain nature of data to be processed in a big data environment. Then, using the language python, students will have the opportunity of building a project to summarize real data streams. No prior experience in programming in python is required because python will be covered during the course.
