As a part of UMD Year of Data Science initiative, this workshop, March 30 - April 3, aims at strengthening multidisciplinary research to answer various substantive important research questions that arise at granular levels by extracting relevant information from multiple structured and unstructured databases.    The workshop will serve as a bridge among statisticians, survey methodologists, engineers, mathematicians, computer scientists, and others interested in combining information from multiple databases in developing reliable inferences at granular levels.
