Anomalous diffusion is present at all scales, from atomic to large ones. Some exemplary systems are ultracold atoms, telomeres in the nucleus of cells, moisture transport in cement-based materials, arthropods' free movement, and birds' migration patterns. The characterization of the diffusion gives critical information about the dynamics of these systems and provides an interdisciplinary framework with which to study diffusive transport.

The notion of data processing is ubiquitous and nearly operates in any project that requires gaining insight from the data. The increasing availability of information sources, data formats and download services offered to the users, makes it difficult to reuse or exploit the potential of those new resources in multiple scientific fields.
