Big data refers to datasets whose size is beyond the ability of typical database software tools. Data Analytics is the application of software to derive information or meaning from data. Artificial intelligence (AI)1, is the ability of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings. The term is frequently applied to the project of developing systems endowed with the intellectual processes characteristic of humans, such as the ability to reason, discover meaning, generalize, or learn from past experience.
In this webinar we will discuss Big Data and AI and how they will be applied to projects and project management. Both Big Data and AI will impact the 10 knowledge areas and 5 process groups in new ways that are both known and unknown in the current practice of project management. We will explore how Big Data and AI will drive more accurate and actionable project decisions. Lastly, we will discuss emerging trends for Big Data and AI that will impact the project management profession.
