The purpose of the workshop is to bring to the fore current issues of data quality as it affects users and researchers dealing with large data sets in potentially complex settings. There are (at least) three overlapping constituencies that must have a stake in these matters: computer scientists, statisticians, and users (especially in business and government). One aim is to create interactions across the constituent groups leading to collaborative efforts to resolve open questions; another goal is to disseminate more widely an awareness of the problems, methodologies, and practices.
