SC16 Invited Talk Spotlight: Dr. Tamara G. Kolda Presents “Parallel Multiway Methods for Compression of Massive Data and Other Applications”
Short Introduction: Scientists are drowning in data. The scientific data produced by high-fidelity simulations and high-precision experiments are far too massive to store long term. The unwieldy nature of the data makes it difficult to analyze or to retain for future analysis or comparison. Data compression is a necessity, but there are surprisingly few options […]
