Diane Bryant: Talent shortage threatens to slow science progress

Big data has been called “the sexiest job in the U.S,” but there is a vast knowledge crevasse that must be crossed before businesses and researchers can fully utilize its potential, said Intel executive vice president Diane Bryant, former general manager of the company’s data center group. The information technology industry has spawned generations of workers with skills in business intelligence and structured databases, but big data requires a different skill set, focused on unstructured data and new programming languages, she said during her presentation at the inaugural Women in Data Science (WiDS) Conference at Stanford University on Nov. 2, 2015.
