1.00 point will be earned for correct responses Chapter Seven (7): According to Nyce (2007), Big data analytics tools have emerged due to the increasing volume and variety of open-source data that has become available on the web. The term Big data refers to the datasets so large and complex that are difficult to easily process using available traditional data management and processing techniques. From this research and revelation, Q2: What is the aim of Big data analytics tools? Identify the aim of Big data analytics tools

1.00 point will be earned for correct responses Chapter Eight (8) According to Ligtvoet, van de Kaa, Fens, van Beers, Herder, and van den Hoven, (in press), full and comprehensive overview of all relevant components of a system increasingly continue to become difficult. The authors assert that, the natural response to complex problems is to delve into details. The suggestion is that an opposite move towards a more abstract approach will gain fruition. The authors have also used the development of smart meters in the Netherlands to illustrate this concept. A more explicit focus on the values that play a role for different stakeholders avoids fruitless detours in the development of technologies. These authors continue to argue that, policy-makers would do better by not only addressing functional requirements, but also taking individual and social values into consideration.
Q3: According to research by Ligtvoet et al. (in press), there are five (5) most important value systems identified and are associated with, and play a major role in the development of smart meters. Please name them, and briefly state their functions? what are five (5) most important value systems identified and their functions? provide a brief narrative for each to support your response,
