Demand-based Data Stream Gathering, Processing, and Transmission
This book presents an end-to-end architecture for demand-based data stream gathering, processing, and transmission. The Internet of Things (IoT) consists of billions of devices which form a cloud of network connected sensor nodes. These sensor nodes supply a vast number of data streams with massive amounts of sensor data. Real-time sensor data enables diverse applications including traffic-aware navigation, machine monitoring, and home automation. Current stream processing pipelines are demand-oblivious, which means that they gather, transmit, and process as much data as possible. In contrast, a demand-based processing pipeline uses requirement specifications of data consumers, such as failu...
Big Data and High Performance Computing
Big Data has been much in the news in recent years, and the advantages conferred by the collection and analysis of large datasets in fields such as marketing, medicine and finance have led to claims that almost any real world problem could be solved if sufficient data were available. This is of course a very simplistic view, and the usefulness of collecting, processing and storing large datasets must always be seen in terms of the communication, processing and storage capabilities of the computing platforms available. This book presents papers from the International Research Workshop, Advanced High Performance Computing Systems, held in Cetraro, Italy, in July 2014. The papers selected for p...
Big Data Benchmarking
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Big Data Benchmarking, WBDB 2014, held in Potsdam, Germany, in August 2014. The 13 papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and cover topics such as benchmarks specifications and proposals, Hadoop and MapReduce - in the different context such as virtualization and cloud - as well as in-memory, data generation, and graphs.
Multimedia Semantics - The Role of Metadata
This book gives an overview on fundamental issues within the field of multimedia metadata focusing on contextualized, ubiquitous, accessible and interoperable services on a higher semantic level. The book provides a selection of basic articles being a base for multimedia metadata research. Furthermore, it brings together experts from research and industry to present a view on the current state-of-the-art in recent research in Multimedia Semantics and the role of Metadata.
Big Data Analytics
This book has a collection of articles written by Big Data experts to describe some of the cutting-edge methods and applications from their respective areas of interest, and provides the reader with a detailed overview of the field of Big Data Analytics as it is practiced today. The chapters cover technical aspects of key areas that generate and use Big Data such as management and finance; medicine and healthcare; genome, cytome and microbiome; graphs and networks; Internet of Things; Big Data standards; bench-marking of systems; and others. In addition to different applications, key algorithmic approaches such as graph partitioning, clustering and finite mixture modelling of high-dimensional data are also covered. The varied collection of themes in this volume introduces the reader to the richness of the emerging field of Big Data Analytics.
Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking: Traditional to Big Data to Internet of Things
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 7th TPC Technology Conference on Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking, TPSTC 2015, held in conjunction with the 40th International Conference on Very Large Databases (VLDB 2015) in Kohala Coast, Hawaii, USA, in August/September 2015. The 8 papers presented together with 1 keynote, and 1 vision paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. Many buyers use TPC benchmark results as points of comparison when purchasing new computing systems. The information technology landscape is evolving at a rapid pace, challenging industry experts and researchers to develop innovative techniques for evaluation, measurement and characterization of complex systems. The TPC remains committed to developing new benchmark standards to keep pace, and one vehicle for achieving this objective is the sponsorship of the Technology Conference on Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking (TPCTC).
Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking
This book constitutes the proceedings of the Second Technology Conference on Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking, TPCTC 2010, held in conjunction with the 36th International Conference on Very Large Data Bases, VLDB 2010, in Singapore, September 13-17, 2010. The 14 full papers and two keynote papers were carefully selected and reviewed from numerous submissions. This book considers issues such as appliance; business intelligence; cloud computing; complex event processing; database optimizations; data compression; energy and space efficiency, green computing; hardware innovations; high speed data generation; hybrid workloads; very large memory systems; and virtualization.
Performance Characterization and Benchmarking. Traditional to Big Data
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 6th TPC Technology Conference, TPCTC 2014, held in Hangzhou, China, in September 2014. It contains 12 selected peer-reviewed papers, a report from the TPC Public Relations Committee. Many buyers use TPC benchmark results as points of comparison when purchasing new computing systems. The information technology landscape is evolving at a rapid pace, challenging industry experts and researchers to develop innovative techniques for evaluation, measurement and characterization of complex systems. The TPC remains committed to developing new benchmark standards to keep pace and one vehicle for achieving this objective is the sponsorship of the Technology Conference on Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking (TPCTC). Over the last five years TPCTC has been held successfully in conjunction with VLDB.
Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking for the Analytics Era
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 8th TPC Technology Conference, on Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking, TPCTC 2017, held in conjunction with the43rd International Conference on Very Large Databases (VLDB 2017) in August/September 2017. The 12 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numeroussubmissions. The TPC remains committed to developing new benchmark standards to keep pace with these rapid changes in technology.
Tool support for collaborative creation of interactive storytelling media
Scrollytellings are an innovative form of web content. Combining the benefits of books, images, movies, and video games, they are a tool to tell compelling stories and provide excellent learning opportunities. Due to their multi-modality, creating high-quality scrollytellings is not an easy task. Different professions, such as content designers, graphics designers, and developers, need to collaborate to get the best out of the possibilities the scrollytelling format provides. Collaboration unlocks great potential. However, content designers cannot create scrollytellings directly and always need to consult with developers to implement their vision. This can result in misunderstandings. Often,...
