Runtime Prediction for Scale-Out Data Analytics

Many analytics applications generate mixed workloads, i.e., workloads comprised of analytical tasks with different processing characteristics including data pre-processing, SQL, and iterative machine learning algorithms. Examples of such mixed workloads ca ...

PREDIcT: Towards Predicting the Runtime of Large Scale Iterative Analytics

Anastasia Ailamaki, Adrian Daniel Popescu

Machine learning algorithms are widely used today for analytical tasks such as data cleaning, data categorization, or data filtering. At the same time, the rise of social media motivates recent uptake in large scale graph processing. Both categories of alg ...

Same Queries, Different Data: Can we Predict Query Performance?

Anastasia Ailamaki, Adrian Daniel Popescu, Miguel Sérgio De Oliveira Branco

We consider MapReduce workloads that are produced by analytics applications. In contrast to ad hoc query workloads, analytics applications are comprised of fixed data flows that are run over newly arriving data sets or on different portions of an existing ...

Adaptive query execution for data management in the cloud

Anastasia Ailamaki, Debabrata Dash, Adrian Daniel Popescu

A major component of many cloud services is query processing on data stored in the underlying cloud cluster. The traditional techniques for query processing on a cluster are those offered by parallel DBMS. These techniques however, cannot guarantee high pe ...
