Gaining insight from large data volumes with ease
Efficient handling of large data-volumes becomes a necessity in today's
world. It is driven by the desire to get more insight from the data and to gain
a better understanding of user trends which can be transformed into economic
incentives (profits, cost-reduction, various optimization of data workflows,
and pipelines). In this paper, we discuss how modern technologies are
transforming well established patterns in HEP communities. The new data insight
can be achieved by embracing Big Data tools for a variety of use-cases, from
analytics and monitoring to training Machine Learning models on a terabyte
scale. We provide concrete examples within context of the CMS experiment where
Big Data tools are already playing or would play a significant role in daily
operations
Mobile Edge Computing Empowers Internet of Things
In this paper, we propose a Mobile Edge Internet of Things (MEIoT)
architecture by leveraging the fiber-wireless access technology, the cloudlet
concept, and the software defined networking framework. The MEIoT architecture
brings computing and storage resources close to Internet of Things (IoT)
devices in order to speed up IoT data sharing and analytics. Specifically, the
IoT devices (belonging to the same user) are associated to a specific proxy
Virtual Machine (VM) in the nearby cloudlet. The proxy VM stores and analyzes
the IoT data (generated by its IoT devices) in real-time. Moreover, we
introduce the semantic and social IoT technology in the context of MEIoT to
solve the interoperability and inefficient access control problem in the IoT
system. In addition, we propose two dynamic proxy VM migration methods to
minimize the end-to-end delay between proxy VMs and their IoT devices and to
minimize the total on-grid energy consumption of the cloudlets, respectively.
Performance of the proposed methods are validated via extensive simulations
