Factors Affecting Big Data Technology Adoption, Nayem Rahman May 2016

Factors Affecting Big Data Technology Adoption, Nayem Rahman

Student Research Symposium

With the advancement of computer science, hardware and software engineering, and computing power, and later with the advent of the internet, social networking tools and other sources such as sensors data growth has increased significantly. These data are called big data which are mostly unstructured, generated in large volumes, data need to be captured in near real-time. To handle big data a completely new set of tools and technologies are being emerged. I have studied big data literature to identify the factors that might influence big data adoption. I was able to list quite a few factors or attributes that …


Storage Management Of Data-Intensive Computing Systems, Yiqi Xu Mar 2016

Storage Management Of Data-Intensive Computing Systems, Yiqi Xu

FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Computing systems are becoming increasingly data-intensive because of the explosion of data and the needs for processing the data, and storage management is critical to application performance in such data-intensive computing systems. However, existing resource management frameworks in these systems lack the support for storage management, which causes unpredictable performance degradations when applications are under I/O contention. Storage management of data-intensive systems is a challenging problem because I/O resources cannot be easily partitioned and distributed storage systems require scalable management. This dissertation presents the solutions to address these challenges for typical data-intensive systems including high-performance computing (HPC) systems and big-data …
