<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The Digging into Data Challenge has funded a wide variety of projects that explore how computationally intensive research methods can be used to ask new questions about and
gain new insights into our world. To encourage innovative research from across the globe, Digging into Data is sponsored by ten international research funding organizations that are working together to focus the attention of the social sciences, humanities,
library, archival, information, computer, mathematical, and statistical science communities on large-scale data analysis and its potential applications.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></p>

funders. </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>
