[Dbpedia-discussion] MapReduce expert needed to help DBpedia [as GSoC co-mentor]
Dear all, We want to adapt the DBpedia extraction framewok to work with a MapReduce framework. [1] We want to implement this idea through GSoC 14 and already got two interested students [2] [3]. Unfortunately we are not experienced in this field and our existing contacts could not join. Thus, we are looking for someone to help us mentor the technical aspects of this project.

Great idea and much needed move ;) Within the Hadoop platform, the MapReduce framework is focused on distributed batch processing. Other frameworks are more focused on streaming… = Have you considered the pros and cons? FYI, we are using the DBpedia Extraction framework at Yahoo Labs for some projects, and have been thinking about porting it to Hadoop for some time.

Other frameworks are more focused on streaming… = Have you considered the pros and cons? Actually no, this is one of the reasons we need the expert. We have a very general idea of the existing frameworks but cannot make that decision with confidence. FYI, we are using the DBpedia Extraction framework at Yahoo Labs for some projects, and have been thinking about porting it to Hadoop for some time. We may be able to help… Since you (Yahoo Labs) can provide one of our use cases, it could all fit very well. However, we'd need some commitment. The application period starts next week [1] and if we won't find anyone we'll have to drop this. Regarding the workflow, we will provide the DBpedia know-how and the expert will have two tasks 1) Ensure that the student's application is technically good and, if the students gets accepted 2) periodically (weekly) check his progress during the coding period Best, Dimitris [1] https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2014 -- Nicolas Torzec Yahoo Labs From: Dimitris Kontokostas kontokos...@informatik.uni-leipzig.de Date: Thursday, March 6, 2014 at 5:04 AM To: semantic-...@w3.org semantic-...@w3.org, Linked Data community public-...@w3.org, DBpedia Discussions dbpedia-discussion@lists.sourceforge.net, DBpediaDevelopers dbpedia-develop...@lists.sourceforge.net, dbp-spotlight-us...@lists.sourceforge.net dbp-spotlight-us...@lists.sourceforge.net, DBpediaSpotlight Developers dbp-spotlight-develop...@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Dbpedia-discussion] MapReduce expert needed to help DBpedia [as GSoC co-mentor] Dear all, We want to adapt the DBpedia extraction framewok to work with a MapReduce framework.
