Towards a Scalable Dynamic Spatial Database System
With the rise of GPS-enabled smartphones and other similar mobile devices,
massive amounts of location data are available. However, no scalable solutions
for soft real-time spatial queries on large sets of moving objects have yet
emerged. In this paper we explore and measure the limits of actual algorithms
and implementations regarding different application scenarios. And finally we
propose a novel distributed architecture to solve the scalability issues.Comment: (2012
Machine Learning Playground
Machine learning is a science that “learns” about the data by finding unique patterns and relations in the data. There are a lot of libraries or tools available for processing machine learning datasets. You can upload your dataset in seconds and quickly start using these tools to get prediction results in a few minutes. However, generating an optimal model is a time consuming and tedious task. The tunable parameters (hyper-parameters) of any machine learning model may greatly affect the accuracy metrics. While most of the tools have models with default parameter setting to provide good results, they can often fail to provide optimal results for reallife datasets. This project will be to develop a GUI application where a user could upload a dataset and dynamically visualize accuracy results based on the selected algorithm and its hyperparameters
DCCast: Efficient Point to Multipoint Transfers Across Datacenters
Using multiple datacenters allows for higher availability, load balancing and
reduced latency to customers of cloud services. To distribute multiple copies
of data, cloud providers depend on inter-datacenter WANs that ought to be used
efficiently considering their limited capacity and the ever-increasing data
demands. In this paper, we focus on applications that transfer objects from one
datacenter to several datacenters over dedicated inter-datacenter networks. We
present DCCast, a centralized Point to Multi-Point (P2MP) algorithm that uses
forwarding trees to efficiently deliver an object from a source datacenter to
required destination datacenters. With low computational overhead, DCCast
selects forwarding trees that minimize bandwidth usage and balance load across
all links. With simulation experiments on Google's GScale network, we show that
DCCast can reduce total bandwidth usage and tail Transfer Completion Times
(TCT) by up to compared to delivering the same objects via independent
point-to-point (P2P) transfers.Comment: 9th USENIX Workshop on Hot Topics in Cloud Computing,
