We are in a Big Data era. The rapid growth of information in science requires processing of large amounts of scientific data. One proposed solution is to apply data flow languages and runtimes to data intensive applications. The sample systems include the Google MapReduce, Microsoft Dryad, and CGL Twister. In this project, we will study applicability and performance of using those runtimes to solve Big Data issue in the science.
Intellectual MeritDeploy runtimes such as Twister, Hadoop, Dryad on FutureGrid resources. Explore the applicability of new programming model and runtime technologies that can be used to solve thte Big Data issue in science.
Broader ImpactsExplore the feasibility of run data intensive applications with map reduce related technology on a dynamic,elastic, provisioned resources infrastructure. Abstract the design patterns of scientific applications for runtimes, such as Dryad, Twister, and Hadoop in HPC, Cluster, and Cloud.
