Introduction to Hadoop at Data-360 ConferenceAvkash Chauhan
Hadoop is an open source platform for storing and processing large amounts of unstructured data across clusters of commodity hardware. It provides flexibility in storing various data types without schemas, and scales out workload by distributing data and processing across nodes. Hadoop is also fault tolerant, continuing operations even if nodes fail, and moves computation to where the data resides for efficiency. Key components include Hadoop Common, HDFS for storage, and MapReduce for distributed processing.
The document discusses using open map data like OpenStreetMap to help with humanitarian crises. It provides an example of how OSM was used to map areas of Haiti after the 2010 earthquake, with mappers adding crucial information like displaced persons camps. The author notes challenges like adding street names from older maps and efforts to match address data from other sources to improve OSM data quality.
Extraction, analysis, atom mapping, classification and naming of reactions fr...NextMove Software
This document describes software tools for extracting reaction information from pharmaceutical electronic laboratory notebooks (ELNs), including HazelNut for exporting reactions, Filbert for converting file formats, Cobnut for normalizing tag names, and NameRXN for classifying and naming reactions. The tools allow ELN data to be analyzed, such as determining the most common reaction types or evaluating reaction sketches through atom mapping.

Open Historical Map: re-using obsolete information - State of the Map 2013OSMFstateofthemap
*** Presented by David Evans at State of the Map 2013 ***
The Open Historical Map is billed as ""The world's most out of date map"". It is a complimentary approach using the Open Street Map tools that focuses on features that have since disappeared, changed shape or purpose. Because of scale and relevancy issues the Open Historical Map uses its own database instance that imports some of the features of Open Street Map. Editing of the map by users is encouraged, and most of the data comes from automated imports from other historical projects that contribute their mapping information. This presentation will review how the Street and Historical maps can be used together and the approaches used to handle problems of time and accuracy in the historical map.
Java in the database–is it really useful? Solving impossible Big Data challengesRogue Wave Software
Since 1999, Oracle has included a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) within the database. That makes it old enough to drive and well past time to get a real job. In today’s data-obsessed world, that job is fortifying Oracle’s database with a healthy dose of analytics to give your database the power to handle the data challenges of the 21st century.
There are numerous advantages to adopting a 100% Java code base for in-database analytics. Security is doubly enhanced by performing all analytics in the database. The code is highly portable as the identical java classes that run in the database will run on any client with any operating system. Plus the modern paradigm of taking the algorithms to the data is elegantly achieved with minimal effort.
Until now, a single Java solution with all these qualities wasn’t available. By using JMSL Numerical Libraries, you get a suite of algorithms with routines for predictive analytics, data mining, regression, forecasting, and data cleaning. JMSL is scalable and can be used in Hadoop MapReduce applications. Now, JMSL Numerical Libraries makes Java in the database more than useful -- it makes it unbeatable.
This webinar walks through the argument of why embedded analytics is better and provides examples using an Oracle database and JMSL.

Knowledge management aims to organize a company's collective knowledge so it can be shared and leveraged more efficiently. It distinguishes knowledge from merely having data or information by noting that knowledge is both tacit, based on personal experience, and explicit, able to be codified and shared. An effective knowledge management system helps determine what is already known, what still needs to be learned, and what additional knowledge would be valuable by making knowledge easier to find, understand, and reuse for the benefit of employees, customers and the company as a whole.
