Machine learning, big data, fast data, predictive analytics, autonomic computing and artificial intelligence are terms that are trending in our industry. They seem to be related to each other in some way, especially in the face of the abundance of and speed with which data will flow from the Internet of Everything.

 
Some serious claims are being made about the technologies that lie behind these terms – that they herald a sea-change not only in the way the telecoms and IT industries face their own strategic and operational challenges but also in terms of solutions opportunities for their customers. How real is this? Haven’t we heard these claims before? What’s different this time?  
 
The ITP has drawn together speakers for this seminar who are experts in this field. The seminar will seek to demystify this whole area and put it into context. It will explain what these terms mean, their origin, their maturity, how they relate to one another, and, importantly, what it means for the world of telecoms we know and our customers. Some examples will be given where the opportunities are already being realised.
