The term data-scientist is becoming prevalent in science, engineering, business and industry. We will explore how the term is used in different contexts, segments and sectors; we will examine the different variants, flavours and interpretations and try to answer the following questions: . What does a data scientist really do? . What skills does a data scientist need? How do they acquire them? . What tools, technologies and platforms are used by data scientists? . How can we build data scientist capacity and capability for the future?
