Learning outcomes

The course aims to provide the fundamental concepts of distributed computing systems that deal with very large data sets, together with the programming paradigms adopted by these systems. At the end of the course the student must demonstrate that he has acquired the necessary knowledge to evaluate the possible alternatives in the design of the analysis of large amounts of data, considering the benefits and limitations of possible alternatives. This knowledge will allow the student to: i) configure parallel data processing systems; ii) design solutions to analyze large amounts of data; iii) evaluate the solutions for data analysis with parallel systems, considering the system resources necessary for the analysis; iv) continue the studies autonomously in the development of advanced analysis of large amounts of data.

Program

* Programming frameworks:
-- Distributed filesystems (HDFS);
-- Data and graph processing (MapReduce, Pregel);
-- SQL-like systems (Pig, Hive);
-- NoSQL systems (HBase, Cassandra).

* Algorithms:
-- Design of algorithms for text processing;
-- Indexing algorithms (inverted indexing);
-- Graph analysis (PageRank).

* Datacenter architectures:
-- Datacenter organization;
-- Datacenter networking;
-- Failure management.

Examination Methods

Examination consists of a project and the corresponding documentation. The project aims at verifying the comprehension of course contents and the capability to apply these contents in the resolution of a problem. The project topic is agreed with the teacher and focus on specific case studies. The project includes the performance evaluation for different input sizes, and the evaluation of the implementation alternatives. After the evaluation of the project documentation, the student may give an oral exam where the details of the project are discussed.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE
