That is good observation Ali. I think it boils down to exposure. If necessity is the mother of invention, how much "big data" problems do we have to necessitate this interesting science? With IBM setting up a research lab at CUEA, which is open to researchers, I don't think we have an excuse. Some ripe areas of research on big data in the region are 1. Shopping trends, 2.
