Hyunsik Choi commented on HAMA-194:
-----------------------------------
I wrote a draft of new introduction to Hama. How about this?
--
Hama (means a hippopotamus in Korean) is a distributed scientific package on
Hadoop for massive matrix and graph data. It is currently in incubation with
Apache. The main goal of Hama is to provide computational tools for
data-intensive scientific and industrial areas. It consists of two packages,
which are the matrix package and the graph package.
The matrix package (means a hippopotamus in Korean) is a library of matrix
operations on a Map/Reduce framework for a large-scale numerical analysis and
data mining, that need the intensive computation power of matrix inversion,
e.g., linear regression, PCA, SVM and etc. It will be useful for many
scientific applications, e.g., physics computations, linear algebra,
computational fluid dynamics, statistics, graphic rendering and many
more.
The graph package, called Angrapa, is an large-scale graph data management
framework for analytical processing. It is still an ongoing project. It will
employ massive parallelism on Hadoop. It aims to achieve the scalability for
tera bytes or peta bytes graph data. Angrapa will be used in a variety of
scientific and industrial areas, such as data mining, machine learning,
information retrieval, bioinformatics, and social networks, required to process
large-scale graph data.
> Update the project description of Hama
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: HAMA-194
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAMA-194
> Project: Hama
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Hyunsik Choi
> Assignee: Hyunsik Choi
> Priority: Minor
