Attaching publication trends in the field of computer science. Its interesting to note that as business requirements pertaining to managing huge data have grown, allied fields in computer science have also shown increase in publications. AI - 308142 publications , Data Mining - 62082 Databases 137010 , Pattern Recognition 134266. The figures are number of publications from (1960 - present) in each category.
All the publications have gone into leading conferences and show an interesting trend. All areas which help you analyze information better have grown significantly as opposed o their counterparts like (Security & Privacy or Programming Languages, gone down :) ) This shows where we are heading. In the spirit of this upcoming trend I hope members coming to the group and already existent members would contribute and participate in discussions happening here. After all , all the big data products in the market are a direct derivative of literature in public domain :) Your contributions will guide new members in pursing their interests in similar area.
