Computational archival science

The digitisation of archival materials and ingest of digitally born materials in digital archives has led to the possibilities of application of the big data analytical principles in the digital archives. The author explains the 5V characteristics of big data. He proceeds to define the concept of Computational Archival Science (CAS). Two CAS examples are given in order to illustrate the type of research that can be conducted in that area. Further, the author explains the prerequisites for engaging with CAS. Finally, suggestions on how archival institutions might get involved in CAS activities are given.
