Data access using simulators BIG data

DATA

Data acquisition using simulators:- All data available- Easy to access

Cons:- Who has the rights to the

data?- User privacy?- Security?- Too much data?

Pros:- Huge potential for machine

designers- Early access to data (before

the first prototype)- Data available that can not be

measured in reality
