Samuel Guo updated HAMA-86:
---------------------------

    Description: 
Let's discuss the generic load/save operation from/to other sources(such as, 
FileSystem).

matrices in FileSystem may have different format, parsing of the file as a 
matrix depends on the format. 
we may need some methods like:

 /**
   * Save a matrix as file using specified OutputFormat.
   *
   * @param path
   *                  the file path.
   * @param format
   *                  the format of the matrix.
   * @return true if saved
   * @throws IOException
   */
  public boolean saveAsFile(Path filepath, OutputFormat format) throws 
IOException; 

 /**
   * Load a matrix from file
   *
   * @param path
   *                  the file path.
   * @param format
   *                  the format of the matrix.
   * @return true if saved
   * @throws IOException
   */
  public static Matrix loadFromFile(Path filepath, OutputFormat format) throws 
IOException; 
  

  was:
we need a generic "pathname" class to identify the input & output.
 "pathname" can contain two parts: one is scheme, such as HBASE or HDFS; one 
will be the actual name, such as table name in HBase, filename in HDFS.


I've changed the description.
